In case you didn't believe the Aeroelectric Connection's advice not to use cheapo hardware-store crimp terminals, check out these tests of cheap (StoreHouse) and not-so-cheap (ETC, Calterm) terminals. The difference is striking.

(SteinAir sold me ETC brand terminals, claiming they were similar to AMP in quality, and I am happy with them. I guess they carry all AMP now.)
