Review on πŸ”Œ TICONN Connectors: Waterproof Automotive Electrical - Superior Performance Guaranteed by Jon Garcia

Revainrating 2 out of 5

They are heat shrinkable but NOT marine grade as advertised.

These connectors are fine for general dry use but definitely not as good as other connectors advertised for marine use that I have used. These connectors have shrink caps, but the plastic is very stiff and takes much longer to shrink under the heat gun, has little internal adhesive to make a watertight seal, and fully solidifies after cooling. melt quickly at lower temperatures and remain soft and flexible after cooling. I also cut several connectors and none of them contained copper inside. So my guess is that these are functional aluminum shrink connectors, but they are not marine grade. I purchased two different sets of "Marine" shrink connectors for a project through Revain and neither set came with actual marine connectors. Next time I'll take the Harbor Freight, which is much higher quality for the Marines.

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Obsolete
