Is there an easy alternative to soldering?
Its every household issue once a while when the need arises to have a wire soldered to a circuit or when the wire itself get separated from the circuit due to wear/tear or straining the wire during usage.

Soldering isnt any easy job so looking for any Fevikwik type stick or something on those lines which can be used to re-connect such points without spending on soldering gun or rushing to nearest electrician which again charges a loot amount.
 
Yes but its imported and pretty costly -

Low Cost, Low Volume Resist., Electrically Conductive Silver Epoxy Adhesive, AA-DUCT 906 , 2.5gm kit : Amazon.in: Industrial & Scientific

Better to roll your own soldering without a soldering iron if you can but be careful -

How to Solder Without Electricity (or a Soldering Iron)

How to Solder Without Electricity (or a Soldering Iron): Soldering is a valuable skill. There are a lot of situations where the ability to repair or modify electronics can really save the day. But most people don't carry a soldering iron around with them. And even if you did have a soldering...

Even better is to get an iron and practice. Simple wire fixtures are relatively easy if you know where it needs to be fixed and it is not a small circuit etc.

soldering is actually a very easy skill to learn. Tools are still really cheap - and easily qualifies as a life skill every man (and woman) should possess.
It does get progressively difficult when you need to start desoldering , work on small components and further more if you need to work with SMDs ..

but for the use case you mentioned, it won’t take you more than a few hours to learn - and will be a skill that you won’t forget

Curious!
What you need to solder frequently, these days? This is mostly for a PCB connection. I know how to solder, but have not done it since maybe circa 1994. Tech. has moved so much ahead. I hardly remember a wire breaking off, which needs to be joined back to the PCB. Till mid 90's most households used to have: solder gun, silver wire, and that brown yellow glue, to put on top of the solder. Those days. :) These days.
