[QUOTE="loopkiller, post: 5568280, member: 601690"] Why would I use bigger wire just so I could be lazy and not solder the connection? Yeah that makes sense. You can dismiss the difference in contact area all you want, but it is still a fact. Wasting money buying bigger wire vs. correctly using the correct wire is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. Also, any mechanical method is bound to fail. Set screws can back out. Unless you have a real crimping tool, simple crimps do not make enough contact. [/QUOTE]
