RE: soldering technique question

Your method is fine, especially for high-mass pure copper connectors which tend to require high-heat temperatures. I suggest going a step further, and use additional solder when making the solder joint. A dependable solder joint can be created by quickly touching the tip of a soldering iron to both the moderately tinned areas of the connector and wire, along with a flow of fresh solder at the same time. This is the best approach I've found when making difficult solder joints.
