I wouldn't use resistence soldering for electronics work. Good chance of frying delicate components from the current. But the wire stripper part looks really interesting.
Modding the W-1 for use with UE IEM's was my first thought, but given the high noise floor (and my defective unit's "EEEEEE" buzzing noise), I don't think the Sleek Audio W-1 is a good candidate any more.
Rather than chopping the wire and soldering, I'm going to open mine up and solder the wires directly to the PCB in the W-1. That way, it's reversable without having to sacrifice another cable. Although, if someone can source the connector pins for the UE cable, it be easier to cut the W-1 wire at the ends and solder them to the pins directly.
