[QUOTE="Douglasdzaster, post: 494829, member: 27803"] I’ve watched videos on those connectors and wondered how strong they were. I don’t know much about solder also wondered how strong of a connection since the solder melts so easy. I was seriously thinking about using them but I’m chicken and didn’t want to wire the entire boat with something new. New to me that is. Do they do as well as they say? Ive been using Achor marine stuff and I’ll heat shrink the connectors then slide a heat shrink sleeve over that. But with all that like I said I’m chicken and wasn’t going to splice something that I might really need to stay afloat some day. I don’t have a lot of flotation in the 1983 except the 2” foam board under the floor. I’m glad you replied speaking good things about the connectors. Now I gotta try them out. [/QUOTE]
