If you wanna redo the alarm a few months down the road use Scotchloks.
If you wanna do it once, Strip, Weld, Insulate.
Nuff Said.

Not to stir things up but...

How about these on wire end to wire end connections?

Bottom of page 7-96, ThermaFix Solder Splice.  Make a WesternUnion connection then solder, heat shrink insulate and seal, all with a match.   I believe they are only $1.25 each. 

Soldering is fun!

scotchloks wouldnt be so bad if they came with a flashlight, a fire extinguisher and roadside assistance.

Do you have any documentation of this procedure? I've heard of it but never seen how it's done as I can't find any info on the net about it... I also find it hard to believe the miltary would allow a splice in a circuit without anything 'bonding' the wire like solder or metal from a crimp connector, is this just something some guy that used to be the miltary made up?

I doubt that the military would ALWAYS go to the trouble of soldering AND carrying the equipment required.
