I will be soldering a new ec8 solar panel connector for the Solar Panels on my Inergy Apex Solar Generator. You will see me tin the Wires and the EC8 Connector Pins using a large Weller Soldering Tool (240 / 325 watt).

ITEMS USED IN THIS VIDEO:
I love the Inergy Apex I am using in this video but it’s no longer available. Inergy has a new larger model available, the Inergy Flex. I have been looking at other brands that are more readily available and I always come back to the Bluetti (see links below).
