Waterproof Ring/Tongue Terminals for small wires
 
Hi there,

Does anyone know of a source for waterproof terminals like the
Perma-Seals, but for smaller than 22 AWG wires?

Any hints/tricks on waterproofing these if no Perma-Seal types are
available?

Thanks,
SS

Mebbe a dab of silicon and some heat shrink ?

The best thing to use is a product like Liquid Tape, it really seals
the connection. The problem with heat seal is it can hold moisture
around the area you want to protect, and you can't see what's happening
underneath. Silicon's not bad, but it serves the same function as
Liquid Tape and is a lot harder to remove if you ever have to get at
the connection in the future.
