Hayden and Captain.... Thanks for the info. I really glad that this appears to work and not cause any other problems. The way I see it is I will solder 3 wires into the sockets and then solder proper connectors on the end. I'll use it like the high amp version. Once these are soldered into the sockets they will never be removed. If I need to change the connector I'll just change the connector on the end of the wire.

Hayden, Thanks for the pictures. In one of them it appears that there is solder in the socket but no wire. It looks like a connector I had once that the wire pulled out because of a bad solder job. Is that what you are showing? Also, can you measure the resistance of the soldered socket vs one of the others with a 3.5mm plug in it. Just looking to find out if there is a measureable improvement.

Captian, I'm assuming you have run your motor with no issues after soldering directly to the sockets. Did you solder in the same fashion. Fill the socket with solder? I'm asking because it seems like it would require alot of heat to get the solder to flow into the soket and the wire and get a good solid connection. I have a 60watt iron w/chisel tip I plan to use. But even with that when soldering connectors onto wires it seems to take alot of heat and I am worried about melting a connection I shouldnt.


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...
