    BTW, you want to use wire nuts & then electrical tape to be on the safe side & a much more reliable connection.. Electrical tape breaks down in the long run. I myself prefer soldering & heat shrink tubing.. :)

    Thanks John!

    Good point.... the main reason I decided to build myself instead of buy the cheap ebay units.

    Very good point, tape does break down, especially in the presence of high humidity (like under our tanks :p). Solder and heat shrink by far the best way to go if you have the tools/know how.
