Review on πŸ’§ TICONN Waterproof Insulated Electrical Connectors by Victor Garro

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The best connectors for wires.

Did some tests to learn how to use it properly to now fix some of the wires on my truck the squirrel decided to chew on it. They interfere with nest building. Strip the wires, then connect and twist the ends together. for a better connection (advance the wires until they touch each other's plastic and twist them to form a wire). Press the wire connector into place and center the solder on the wire. I use a heat gun to get more even heat on the connector to compress the entire heat shrink, then hold it in the middle to finish melting the solder. Let it cool for a few minutes, then put regular heat shrink tubing over it and shrink it for a better waterproof connection. Pros: Ease of use. You can pull hard and it won't come loose unless you let it cool before pulling on it. Convinced of this from my own experience. Cons: The heat shrink tubing is too thin, so I gave it 4 stars. If you twist the wires like I did and one sticks out a little it will almost pierce by the time you're done. Therefore, regular heat shrinking over it is required. Wanted to post pictures but unfortunately there is no space here for the latest iPad update.

Pros
  • βœ”οΈ STAY ORGANIZED: Our connectors come in a storage box that's easy to store and carry. Color-coded tubing makes it easy to determine the correct port size for each application. The connector assortment includes white (26-24 AWG), red (22-18 AWG), blue (16-14 AWG), and yellow (12-10 AWG) solder terminals that accept 26 AWG through 10 AWG wires
Cons
  • . Very expensive
