(Check to see if a promo code is available for any https://struggleville.net/?s=solder+seal) They are a little pricey compared to a crimp style butt connector, which is what I would be using if not for the solder seal. But I have been using the solder seal exclusively since finding out about it and I really like. Its easy and I trust the connection better. It does take more time than crimping but I really like these things.I have gotten these a couple of times through deals on your site (do you see a trend here? I get a LOT of crap because of you!!! hahaha). I have used them twice so far, but they were to do ~10-12 connects each time. I used them for 2 aftermarket stereos that I installed when connecting the stereo harness to the OEM adapter. It worked GREAT. I won't go back to the non-solder seal.
Have you tried them? What do you think?
Once or twice I feel like I may have applied too much heat and the plastic kind of melted too much, but it seemed ok once it cooled.
