I use 45% on everything from .130 -.250. No worries!
On my T Mono SAWs boat I tin the last inch of my .250 cables as I use couplings with three sets of three set screws 120 degrees apart. Again no worries.

Of course do whatever works for you.

I use electrical and have never had a problem. If i was building huge power system boats I may think differently

I'm using a 3/16 cable... Where can you find hard solder??

At your Local Welding Supply store. It does take acetylene.

If you have a good torch MAPP (methylacetylene-propadiene) will work as well.
