Default Need some "waterproof" 12 v power connectors

Caution about house caulking silicon, I use some on an electrical
device only to find out that the silicon caulking compount is
electrically conductive. Fortunately I was able to peel away the
silicon. I had installed resistors and LEDs to indicate open fuses on
an old VW fusebox, and wondered why connecting 12v to one LED, caused
multiple LEDs to illuminate.
