That ain't gonna work ;-)

(even if you ignore the cap in the space silk screened for Q1!)

The heat should shrink the plastic sleeve out the way, and melt what remains. The iron likely has enough grunt to solder to the cap's case, which is connected to -ve, so it should work... for some odd value of work.

I've used something similar for field repairs to RC model planes etc,
many years ago.

It's pretty handy for car work too - solder is in many ways better than
crimps if its mechanically supported.
