WOW! That was a quick and good response.

Never seen this on usenet before in more than 8 years of use.

thanks folks.


Solder and heat shrink tubing (and a twist of electrical tape for good luck)
.. Good as a original and no extra bulk (just a bit less flexible).

backstab outlets are a good option but pose their own reliability problems.

AL wire? better not solder
