I've seen this posted before but thought I should share my take on soldering anywhere without hydro or even a soldering iron. Using the lighter, tape and a piece of metal rod (also could use solid core copper wire) you can do field repairs anywhere.
I have used this method a few times over the years. When a chipmunk decided to chew off the fuel pump wiring I was able to use this to get the car back in business miles from the nearest town.
Handy skill when you need it. You can also grab a portable iron and supplies here:

WARNING:
Fire is hot
Lighters contain Butane
Butane goes boom when hot
Combining the above without sufficient grey matter results in Darwin award.

A little tip: For a strong proper connection you don’t want to add solder to the wire until the wire is hot. When the wire is hot it melts into the wire and bonds to it. If you just drip hot solder onto a cold wire it’s not going to be a good solid connection, witch is basically the whole point in soldering something. You should not have to melt the solder with the tip of the soldering iron or whatever your using, it should melt into the wire once touched to the wire being soldered. Happy soldering folks!
Damn thanks!
I was literally trynna drip it like that and couldn't get it to work so I checked the comments 🙏💯
What can i use if u don't have soldering wire?
@@axd2312 I don’t believe there is much you could use, especially that you’d have laying around. It would have to be a relatively thin wire or small piece of metal, either way it would need to be something with a very low melting point and something that can bond with copper. The only thing I can think of is lead but I’ve never tried it. Like old lead fishing weights may work but then again if they’re old and dirty they may not because again it has to be able to bond with the wire your trying to solder. I keep a little wire fix kit that I made up in my truck toolbox so I always have a roll of rosen core solder with me. If you solder stuff often like I do, I keep handfuls of different types of solder on hand at home that way I always have the right solder for the job. Or if you just solder wires once in a while and you don’t wanna waste any money maybe just pickup a small roll of rosen core solder from Walmart. They’re only $2 or so last time I checked but it’s enough to solder a handful of wires.
@@axd2312 you could find any old or broken motherboard that has bits of solder, use a screwdriver to remove a small chunk of the solder and use that chunk for your solder, good for a small soldering job
Thanks Man, My my keybaord's wire was disconnected to the circuit so I had to solder it
But I didn't have a solder, Then I watched this and it worked! Thanks Man!
Bro, same issue. Hope it works.
Brilliant, i need this today....i used a wooden peg 5o isolate the heat from lighter, and used the coil from the peg ready made.....cheers.
This helped so much because I’m taking a rc boat motor and putting into a lego car I built and now I can solder it
This is dope. And I love how u said “in the bush” hahaha
Excellent man! Great tip :D Thanks for that
Welcome! Hope it bails you out of a jam someday too :)
Thank you for saving my life Macgyver.
I little careful is a massive understatement.
Such a good life skill thanks
Impressive and really creative idea!
🤘😎👍
Thank you!!! This helped a lot.
Very nice quick project.
Thanks for the feedback!
Cool idea!!
Thanks!
You saved my life.Thanl you so so much
I love you. The negative terminal on my eskate remote popped off and now you saved me 60$ lol😂😮❤
Nice video, thanks for sharing it :)
awesome bro thank you
Real nice one!
Thanks!
Thanks
This helped a lot
I loooooove it
That's pretty awesome
Works like a champ. Cheers Angel
very good idea man. I am very satisfied to see this. Great!!!!
Thank you very much. I was thinking "this video deserves a subscribe". But guess what, I'm already subscribed!
Great idea.
I made a version 2.0 for this using old vape.
Any type of vape with atomizer that requires coil. RDA to be exact.
Preheating the coil and using it as the substitute for the metal rod you used.
Very nice
Pls make a video on this. Hold up.
I was just about to say, If you make a video I'll watch it.
Thank you so much!!!
thank you for this video i don't own a soldering iron but this should do
Thanks for this video, I used it to strip down my C-1 (the non-USB version) and it is pretty much the same.
whats a C1?
thank god for youtube this trick just saved my ass thank you for sharing this little tip
UA-camrs going to Remove your comment why are you saying ASS that’s a bad word inappropriate
@@Jamalaaa that comment is from 3 years ago calm down buddy
@@slowrunner__9855 OK

Quick question whats that thing you use with the saudering DIY to sauder
I want to repair a speaker this will help
How long did you heat it up for?
20 to 30 seconds
Is the stick in your left hand is iron or metal?
Can I use a thick paper clip
Anybody else come here to kind of waste your day figuring out how to fix a charger or something simple then start thinking you wanna learn how to actually do it legit lol
what is the spec of the the soldering wire? thickness and type?
I like the way u think
what kind of metal rod is that? i use a paper clip and its not working.
Same
i tried to melt solder that was already on a circuit board because i do not have solder but the solder would not melt help please
My point exactly this video is worthless cause you won't get hot enough to solder anything, the soldering wire can be put on relatively not very hot surface and it would melt with ease.
Putting a popsicle stick between the metal and lighter would be safe to use
Genius😮
Can I use copper??
what kind of tape did you use ?
is it ok to use paper clip ?
It was standard electrical tape and yes, a paperclip works great. Cheers
It isnt working for me
Hi, quick question, I know this is an old video but would try this with a paper clip?
Paperclip works fine
Steel wire rool cost
What are you melting? What do you call that
It is called solder
Where do I get this metal rod you are bending
Im curious too
Which is that wire which u melted reply plz.....
Solder
What if there is no soldering wire? Can you suggest what to use?
What is the thin metal that melts called?
You mean solder?
i love u bro

I use a small drill peace not work I use 2 different wire and not work I even heat it with a torch flame thrower it still not melt the sold on my guitar cir board dont work now I'll have to go buy a soldering iron for 3 spots and never use it again
Can you use a paper clip?
Sure
Finally, no i can fix my headphone
need to solder some wires in my ps5 controller, should i try it this way?
Nope
Where's this bush y'all keep talking about and what's there to solder in it
I know this is dumb but I want to RGH a Xbox 360 but I don't have soldering tools imma attempt it with this trick
I hope you didn't do it like this because that mod is not easy.
@@JubbLaRacing I did a little bit of soldering with it but then just ordered a soldering tool for eBay lol oh and just incase your wondering it glitches first time so I'd say it went well.
@@callumbmx9763 Nice 👍
Didn't that get hot in your hand?
Nope. The handle end just gets a bit warm. Try it out :)
Thanks for the quick reply. Love these videos. Thumbs up and shared.
Does copper work ?
Couldn’t you just wrap the copper wire strands around a tiny balled up, or chunk of solder, then heat it? Like twist some of the wire strands with the opposite wire, and at the same time, wrap them around the chunk of solder, then light it… I wonder if there’s a way to make a bow&drill type of thing that uses friction to heat up the solder? 🤔
Bro until the heat hits the plastic and burns into the gas then we explode
Don't do that
@@MkmeOrg ik lol this video dangerous
its working just for 2 seconds and it's gone
Y'all already know I'm not gonna use this for emergencys
The metal melted through the tape for me lmao
Sufficient power achieved!
soldering in the bushes. two bushes ago there was a couple having sex
These guys do this for a joke. I hear up my wire untill red and not even touch the solder at all
