30+70pcs Solder Seal Wire Connectors Waterproof Heat Shrink Electrical Wire Butt Terminals Non Slip Assorted Insulated Wire Connectors for Marine Vehicle Electrical Engineering

I was a little sceptical about these as never used before but decided to try whilst fitting some spot light to my BMW GS1200 and they were fantastic! Stripped the wires back, slid on a blue connector and pushed back, wound the copper wire together to make a connection. I then slid the connector over so the solder ring was over the wire, I then used my heat gun to warm up and saw the plastic shrink onto insulation and the solder ring melt onto the copper….prefect connection. Will definitely be buying again.

Great for easy solder joints and weather proofing

On the good side, have repaired Xmas light wiring with these, so only low current thin wires, used a small heat gun and results are good and tidy connection. Joins all seem secure can't fault this for small repairs. On the downside, description gives the impression the black sleeves are connection tubes, not so they are small shrink sleeves, if they were larger they could be useful but even for my thin wires they are too small thus its just padding to give the impression its good value for money, its tarnishes the better connectors giving rise to loss of ratings.

Good product

Works just like it says all I did is use a lighter and you didnt have any issues worked perfect for me just as advertised dont get misslead by the simpletons who couldn't work them

A very useful bit of kit for soldering wires together without having to use a solder iron.

Unfortunately the kit only comes with one a bag of shrink tubes and they are too small for all but the thinnest connectors. Means the other 3 sizes don't have the option to add the extra layer of protection. Seems strange not to include some for each size connectors. As well as this I've been disappointed with the connections I've ended up with. After fallowing the directions to the letter I've had 4 out of 8 connections fail. Problem is the wires don't have room to overlap which means the solder only acts as a link between them instead of melting them together. If the 2 wires are only just touching at the tips the solder isn't bonding the together but just making a link that the 2 wires are both touching. Surely if the wires had room to be wrapped together before sliding the connectors over them both the strength of the connection would be much stronger. As it is the shrink part of them is giving them the only real strength. Like I said half of my attempts have ended with them pulling apart really easily. Not the easy and secure solution I was hoping for. The design is in need of some work. Wider opening and a wider section of solder would be a good improvement.

This stuff is amazing, it’s easy and quicker to use than anything I have used in the past. It’s also great value for money and my new go too kit for joining wires quickly and efficiently.
