Really? They allow flex? A butt connector, depending on the brand has a metal tube 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch. That ain't flexible! A good solder splice will have 1/2 to 3/4 inch soldered area that is just as stiff. Once the shrink tubing is on it's pretty water tight so future corrosion isn't an issue. On ends, be it an eye, spade or whatever I remove the plastic on a crimp connector, slid shrink tube over the wire, crimp on the connector, solder it, then slide the tube over the wire end of the connector and shrink it. Done properly solder connections and splices are just as flexible as crimp on and with shrink tube resist water better.
I know 2 auto electric shops that do it the same way I do. Think I'll do it the same way they do.
