This may be a dumb thing to do, but after crimping (using the more
expensive ratchet type crimper) and inserting the connectors into their
housing, I run some hot melt glue around the conductors where they enter
the housing. This IMHO provides support to the conductors where flexing
may tend to cause failure after a time.
I would be pleased of anyone could provide reasons why this is a stupid
idea to put their argument on the reflector. We learn by mistakes and
by discussion!
