Back in my discrete days I used copper eyelets for connecting large
gauge high current wires.

The military balk because the solder _under_ the eyelet can't be
inspected.

People always say they crack more, even if they're good initially.
I don't know why that's so.

Vibration. The solder work-hardens and makes the joint unreliable.

But why is that different from any other joint?
