New practice adopted! "thumbsup"

Just make sure you remember to slide BOTH sets of wires through the heat shrink tubing before you start soldering. "thumbsup"

Spoken from experience. ;-)

The speakers on the sound kits are only 4 watts IIRC, so it would draw less than a high-power LED bar.

Every time I get a vehicle or ESC, the first thing I do is solder on an XT60 connector. When I solder that connector on, I always add a JST connector to it also.

I do the same thing, got some 10pks from china for a few bucks. It's really handy for accessories or even simple diagnosis. One reason I like 5.5mm bullets now is they're separate leads so no shenanigans de-soldering because you forgot the shrink tube!
