:laughing7: I used to use tiny ones for low voltage swimming pool computer connections and telephone line connections because they self sealed with silicone and the wires wouldn't corrode in chemical rooms and kept them waterproof.
I have personally seen a fire develop from these things at work, as well as in someone's car. They might be ok for very low voltage, but I still will never ever trust them. I mean a car is 12v dc.... pretty low voltage....still lit that thing on fire. All it took was a little oil splatter to help her burn

They work ok for some things. I have used them for wiring in a trailer plug set, a couple of times. Wrapped well in electrical tape. Many moons ago.
