Anyone try these?  I ordered a pack to try after watching some clip on YouTube.

I have used them a few times. Kinda hard to hold the wires and connector and heat at the same time. So I would shrink just one wire in with a small bit of the end of the connector to grab one wire. When I do that I use a small butane torch that I can focus the heat in that small area. A heat gun does do good for the rest of it.

I bought some a while back but haven't tried them yet......I'll have a lot of wiring to do on the hot rod when it comes time so worth looking at all options. Let us know what you think when you get them.....

I have more wiring on the bus to do and hoping these make it a little better.
