The SPDT switches that I am looking at come in the following connector styles:
What would people recommend and why?
Here are my thoughts:
I was thinking of going with screw terminals because of the overall ease of working on the wiring. Tight connections electrical connections when using spades on the end of the wires. Easy to undo and rewire if needed.
Solder is a slightly permanent solution. So if I redid anything more work would be involved here.
I also like the idea of quick connectors. They are easy to crimp onto the end of wire and I have had good experiences using them in other projects. The one thing I don't like about them is that sometimes they are hard to remove and I end up putting more strain on the wire than I like.
Thanks,
Chris

Quick connectors are great, I use them when working on almost everything.
