The other day, I needed to solder some fine wire (28AWG or so; I didn't find a label) into an XT60 connector.

The other day, I needed to solder some fine wire (28AWG or so; I didn't find a label) into an XT60 connector. (It's fine, it's fused).
I didn't want to embrittle the wire with solder wicking down inside it. While it is not in a vehicular application, it is not fixed, either.
So I crimped the wire into 0.5mm ferrules, and then soldered the ferrules into the XT60 connector. This seems to have worked well.
Has anyone else here used soldered ferrules to avoid wicking solder when you are making a connection where you have to use solder where you would otherwise prefer a crimped connection? I'd never heard of it to my recollection, but it seemed like such an obvious answer in hindsight, once I thought of it... ☺
