It looks like they use a cheap crimp on splice, I bet the spliced wires are not soldered. maybe why they cost less.
I would worry about that if it was on my plane.

The EMS Y-harnesses are very good. That lump in the middle is an over-mold. In other words, they mold plastic over the soldered splice. Other manufacturers often use heat shrink for that area. Either way is just fine.

EMS makes and sells quite a bit of stuff. Take a look http://www.emsjomar.com/
UGG, two different opinions. My wing is already covered so there is no way I can tuck in 21" of wire from the Futaba Y-harness but I don't want to lose my plane due to me using a brand unknown to me.

Any other advice either way. My choice depends on:
A) How many like EMS products saying they are good to use
B) How many dislike EMS and suggest I use Futaba. But how to tuck all those wires inside the wing???????
