FWIW, we quit using soldered wiring connections several years ago due to
their high failure rate in high vibration environments.  US military
specs no longer allow soldered connections for the same reason.
Solderless terminals are the only type allowed.  Good crimping tools (ie
no pliers) are required to make them work right, though.
