Have new speaker terminals to install. They are big heavy mothers from Cardas. ~1/4 diameter and am having a bit of trouble getting enough heat into the tip to solder in the 14ga leads to the crossover. Have tried my good Weller soldering iron, but too small. Next I tried a 240 watt soldering gun, but it is old and not very effective (hot).
So, am wondering if anyone out there has done any soldering with a butane micro-torch? Would this solve my problem (should certainly be able to get some heat on the area)? Any suggestions/cautions/etc.?
Thanks.
