I'm on the "wet coast".  Solder works best for most anything involving
"connections".  That being said I can't recall a problem involving a
"twist on" connector.  Heaters fail resulting in condensation problems
and then there's the "tire iron" service call.  That's where the perp
beats the crap out of the camera with a tire iron (or similar blunt
object) until service is required.  :-)
