100 Pcs Solder Seal Heat Shrink Butt Connectors, Waterproof And Insulated Electrical Wire Terminals Splice By TICONN Review

I’d never used these before so wasn’t sure what to expect. I replaced the amp and radio in my car and needed to solder and seal a bunch of wires. This seemed like a better solution than soldering and shrink wrapping the old way or using crimped mechanical connections.I’m glad I used these as trying to solder in the tight spaces of a car would have been harder. I also bought a heat gun to do this right. While I didn’t experiment with too many settings it felt like I had to use max heat/fan to…

I was a bit skeptical at first but they said theirs was better than others. They were right! I had previously purchased the same type of item elsewhere for considerably more money and it took 16 days to get only to find they didn't work as advertised.These connectors work nicely. Solder melts at a lower heat so you don't end up melting everything.I recommend these over others!

I got kind of an apprehensive feeling about these solder-seal connectors from Ti-Conn. I just got them a few days ago.FIRST USE: The solder ring doesn't look very melted around my wires. They are held together in contact, and verified for continuity with a meter, but they don't look quite right. And I applied WAY more heat than I normally would, approaching a minute with a TackLife 660° heat gun. The plastic didn't melt away leaving any holes, so that's a plus. It must be some hellacious…

Quick, solid, and easy connection if you have a heat gun. Slide in bare ends and apply sufficient heat to shrink the outer casing then keep going to melt the inner metal and you have finished making a great wire connection. I rewired my trailer with these and am very happy with the ease of use and the final connections. I need to find something more precise than my shielded heat gun to help place that heat source more precisely on the joints if I want to use them around wood or plastic.

I thought these were a total gimmick a few years ago when they started coming out, but when my local shop guys recommended them, I picked up a set. Chose this set on amazon for price and reviews.I can't tell water resistance yet, but these appear to seal better than my prior methods of connections. This made a few repairs for me very easily and also perfect for a few tight spaces recently where I would not have had the ability to get both hands and a crimp tool, or definitely not a soldering…

It worked well for my car radio. but I think it was overkill buying a multi piece and size pack but it actually came in handy for other projects. I'm satisfied. Just a tip buy a decent heat gun these are not recommended to be heated with a lighter

Very solid and clean water proof connection. Works and looks even better with a regular heat shrink over it. Limited guarantee or warranty information available.

I had never used these, but thought I'd try them as I replaced the LEDs in an inflatable. They were very easy to use and seem to make strong, water proof connections. I was very impressed and will use them on other projects.

These are AMAZAZING! They seal great using a BIC lighter. Just make sure to move the lighter back and forth never lingering in one spot for more than a second (Pretty much the same as when you're sealing any shrink tubing). I was surprised to find that the solder ring melts very uniformly every time making it look like an expert solder weld consistently. It only takes about 4 seconds of waving the lighter flame before the solder ring melts so the whole process is much faster than expected.1.)…

It came exactly as described but following the directions didn’t work. We had to use a soldering iron to heat up the solder seal first because the heat gun was melting the plastic before even heating the solder.Once the solder melted enough and we used the heat gun and shrank the plastic and it worked perfect! So a little ingenuity and it was exactly what we needed.Also, the directions are very vague.

Overall I'm quite happy with them, the solder ball is a bit tricky to get melted all the way without the cover getting burned (used a heat gun)Almost didn't get these as someone had posted a review video that shows how one end is smaller than the other, but when used correctly that is a feature not a bug.

These connectors allow me to make highly secure and conductive connections along with sealed protection all in one step. All I have to do is strip my wires about 1/2 inch each, slide the wires into the connector and heat with a heat gun. The solder melts and provides a secure and conductive connection to the wires. The protective outer heat shrink is an insulator and protector for the connection.These make for very clean, secure and safe connections that ensure for high conductivity. My…

I’m not testing the water resistance much as I needed these to make some connections for the stereo system in my car. But I don’t own a soldering iron and these worked great. Very easy to use and the adhesion made for a connection I feel confident about

The ends give a water tight seal. Higher gauge take much longer to melt and the plastic will give out before the soldier heats up. I crack them before heating. Use a lighter or heat gun. Keep the heat moving.

I haven't use them for out door yet but they should be fine. Use them for led light and really easy to use. The solder melt fine. Will be getting more.

There were very easy to use. I used these to splice a plug into a wiring harness on my daughters car. They worked well and the installation was quick and easy.

I use these wire fasteners frequently for all manner of projects and they generally work well. I fully overlap the stripped wires in the middle of the tube under the center "melt ring" and give the center melt ring a light tap with a small jewelers hammer so the wires don't move. I've had the wires separate with slight movements, hence the hammer tap.I use a heat gun to melt the metal inside to fuse the wires but you need to use care and watch closely. The proper heat both melts the metal…
