The junction quality will<br>
vary inversely with with the need, the more you draw the looser the ties<br>
get so the less it gives you. Being free range the junction can release<br>
offensive odors away from neighbors while being free to join up with any<br>
neighbors of the appropriate polarity that are willing to enter into a<br>
union.<br>

Warning, wire unions are often pretty wild. When the sparks start<br>
flying, nearby conductors should be insulated from the fallout.<br>
