One quick splice is just fine for a non-critical component like this, but you can certainly solder the wire instead if you'd like.

Thanks!

I knew you had addressed it in the video but wanted to provide feedback that at least one person would prefer the $15 - $20 as an option over the guillotine splices ... and soldering is not my idea of a flexible connection where a crimped connection would be preferred ... critical component or not.

If we do offer it in the future it would probably be a $20 upgrade. Since that would make the kit $50 instead of $30 we decided not to include it for the initial run.
If you had a part number for the connector ... be if an OEM number, from DigiKey, Mouser, etc. ... and wanted to pass it on I'd add it to my next order and make my own ... i.e. not as a competitive product, just for my own use. It would save me from having to research it myself ;-}

And I just order your kit.

Thanks,
Arvid
