Heat Shrink Self-Solder Butt Splice Connectors

Hipnoticsays...

Awesome, but transparent tubing? I'd be scared of touching it, 'cause what if the tubing has chafed off and the bare wire is exposed? You wouldn't know.

Telstra could use a few billion of them to fix their copper network. Should work better than chewing gum, rubber bands, twist ties, zip ties and silicone.

Duct tape. You forgot duct tape.

Found these on Amazon awhile back while modding my 3D printer and, since I've never really done much soldering, these seemed like a cool idea and they work great.

Sure wish these had been around when I spent hours wiring up a new fuse block in my old VW, in 20-something degree temperatures. Could have been done in 20 minutes, rather than 3-4 hours.

So, once you've finished, slide some opaque heat shrink over it. No biggie.

Everything old is new again?

We were using these in the late 90's doing server installs at telecom co-los and I'm sure they were old tech by then as well.
