I've soldered all of mine with heat shrink plastic over the top. I don't buy the "solder will fail" argument. I've never had a failed soldered joint.
Soldered or crimped, you still have a flexible cable rigidly attached to a lug.

Thanks. I've bought a power post and will decide if I'll solder or go with the power post...may try both. Whitworths Marine: Blue Sea High Amp Power Post 5/16''

Just a thought

Yep. I soldered mine with a Bernzomatic and just crushed them while still soggy in a vice.
Check the ones here from Projecta pt# BT-925. I have them on both my batteries and have amp, 3 relay take offs, original power harness plus a few others all on one side. The LH battery has incoming alt feed and link feed to second battery as I run mine paired (no battery switch). Both my batteries are Supercharge allrounders with secondary terminals, but I havent even used these yet!
Catalog is below.

Cheers

Andrew.
