Bullet Connectors - flux or not to flux?

[stampy]

why use a soldering iron. i use a propain torch. heat up the bullet connector feed in the solder so it fills about 2/3rds of the connector and just stick the wire in there continuing to hold the flame on the connector until the wire sucks up the solder and your done :) ive found its the easiest way for me.

I like this idea! I have a small jewelers torch that should work quite well.

With a soldering station, I can get the cup hot and filled in about 15 seconds or less. No need for a torch (although there is something manly about an open flame!!!)
