    Twisted wire and wire nuts are a fire waiting to happen. I've used butt connectors in a pinch but I prefer to solder everything though the joint has to be tight. Solder is not like welding since it doesn't penetrate the wire itself. A properly soldered joint will not heat up and adds a miniscule amount of resistance to the circuit.
