Happy Canadian Thanksgiving!
Silver IS scientifiacally proven to be a better conductor. And as far as solder vs crimp, its a fools argument. All you are doing in either one is using a conductive item to ensure solid and permanent contact. Either or works, and works well, so long as your connectors stay attached and pump power thru the connection, who cares?
Well said. Remember Sermos connectors (or Anderson) are not a R/C thing. They are used in other industries. The metallic insert part of the Sermos connector comes in different sizes, so you can accommodate different size wires. Try soldering a wire size 10 to a Deans. Not fun. Crimping takes seconds, and you are on your way:-)
