T5h/1 - additional wire beam?

Post by warder »

Hi! Is there a simple way to add another beam to pin T5h/1?

I would like to do additional lighting as in this guide: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2nv91 ... FTMFk/view


How can I add there a new wire beam? Without soldering?

For me (IMHO) the best way is crimping the two wires in the same terminal.

I agree with ciclo that a double crimp is always the nicest solution. But fot the T5h/1, the wire is fairly tight in the bend there.

Cutting of the original terminal off shortens it by about 1 cm and then it becomes even tighter there. I'm not sure that is good on that spot, but it is good to consider a double crimp yes.
