Solder
Solder is the best way to connect wires, but it takes skill and practice. Splice the wires (as shown above). Before taping, heat the wires (not the solder). When the wires are warm enough, touch the solder to the splice. The solder will flow over the wires. Stretch electrical tape tightly over splice.
