Bypassing the Amp gauge - Question about the MAD Electrical method

but the mad guy is very correct in a lot of things. i talked to him on the phone (he likes to yack so if you call him set aside 1 hour+ !)

anyways a crimped, soldered, splice with heatshrink (Mad's method) to bypass the ammeter guage is superior to using 1 post.

why?

using a post you now have 2 solder joints and two connectors bolted to a post instead of just a single joint. much less chance of the joint degrading with Mad's method.

a degraded joint with current flowing through is what creates heat and lights to go dim and melted stuff etc.

i got a bunch of stuff from Mad to do my car when the time comes. but the guy knows what he's talking about.
