Review on πŸ’§ TICONN Waterproof Insulated Electrical Connectors by Jose Mcdaniel

Revainrating 4 out of 5

First use by user

I used one size 10-12 resistor and three size 14-16 resistors when I replaced the HVAC fan resistor and resistor harness in my 1988 Ford F250 truck (see photo). After placing ticonn on each wire and then stripping about 5/8" of insulator from the ends of both wires, I twisted the ends together. After moving the ticonn to the connector, I used a heat gun to shrink the tubing. and melt the solder in it. My first reaction when using it is very good. I would give them five stars but I couldn't tell if the solder melted as completely as in the demo video. I didn't want to apply too much heat, as I didn't want to melt a hole in the pipe (if at all possible).Even though the solder doesn't melt 100% the electrical connection works fine.I'm glad I can now have full use of my truck's heater fan.I didn't pull hard on the completed joint but it seemed solid enough time will tell If I use it on another project in the future and can confirm that the solder melts completely I will give this review Rerate g with 5 stars (if change of rating is possible). I recommend these connectors.
