[QUOTE="thill, post: 495074, member: 4972"] I recently saw an ad for those heat solder connectors and am curious. A quality heat-shrink crimp connector with hot glue inside works VERY well. We use them on trailers, which tend to be the worst for never getting the salt rinsed off, and they are excellent. For years now, the LED lights will fail before the rigging, and that usually takes a long time. It's hard to argue with proven results, but I plan to buy some of those shrink-solder connectors and give them a try on my personal stuff first. There was a time when the glue filled shrink fittings were new, too. [/QUOTE]
