Some secrets to get these to work great!
These are a good value. You get plenty for the price. These aren't so cheap they fall apart and get all crumbly over time. Follow these pro-tips to get them on, staying nice:1. Don't twist the wire before you put it in the connector. You don't want a point sticking out at the end that won't get crimped because it will only crimp the widest spot and make the whole joint weaker. Make an even strip of the wire over a 1/4 but nor more than half an inch (5/16ths to 3/8ths is usually perfect). Make sure the wire is together and not all frayed and slip it into the butt connector and crimp. Whatever you do make sure there is no exposed wire outside the connector sleeve.2. Don't over crimp by going all ham on it and crushing the butt connector to oblivion. This will actually oblong the connector and might cause it to mushroom and cause a weak crimp.3. Once you get a good crip, heat these things up and they will shrink right into place and the glue that is in them will seal right up and you'll have a nice water tight connection. Use a heat-gun if you can rather than a lighter or a torch and make sure to move the wire over the heat-gun or the heat-gun over the wire, but don't let one point get too hot.4. If you must use a flame from a torch or a lighter, go slow, and move it around a lot. Hold the wire above the flame rotating the wire to get a nice even heat and shrink right into place. Do you best not to burn it because if you do, they get brittle and can leak or crack over time.Last Pro-Tip: When working in a cramped space, if you are using a flame from a torch or lighter or matches or whatever because you have no other choice, what I do is I wrap some quality aluminum foil around what I'm heating. In a confined space where the flame must get right up close to the wire where it will come in direct contact with the connector, the aluminum foil does a pretty good spreading out the heat AND it stops it from directly burning the connector or wire if you don't go nuts. This helps get the backside of the wire you might not be able to reach as well giving you a nice even seal without having to heat up one side way too hot.Enjoy!

Great set of connectors. Heat shrink wrap helps with water and they secure tight. I have bought a few sets of these over the years. Never disappoints.

Very good value for money.
The metal on these connectors is very thin. To get an idea how thin, look at the male spade part and realize that it is twice the thickness of the metal used--it is folded over with a crease on each side and a joint in the middle. I would not use these for connections that are plugged and unplugged a lot because I expect they will bend and loosen over time (the plug/unplug part, not the crimp/heatshrink part).I tried a test terminal with a decent quality "standard" crimping tool (before my heatshrink connector crimping tool arrived) and it was a disaster. The part of the tool that crimps the insulating sleeve mangled the sleeve and the metal did not get crimped well enough to hold the wire against a gentle pull. I did not trust the electrical connection of the connector even though the heatshrink action would keep the wire attached to the terminal. I waited to submit a negative review and return the connectors until my heatshrink specific crimping tool (a Haisstronica HS-8327) arrived--and it changed everything. The crimp held against a moderate tug so that I trust the electrical contact between the wire and the connector. Once heatshrunk, the wire to terminal connection appears waterproof and nearly indestructible.These do take quite a bit of heat and time to shrink. I use a decent heat gun on low setting so I can control the shrink without melting the wire insulation. I find the key is to keep heating until I see the adhesive start to ooze out around the wire insulation. If the connector shell extends past the end of the female part of the connector I have to be careful to not over shrink that part or it shrinks enough that the mating connector can't be plugged in. This can be fixed by carefully cutting off the extra shell with side or flush cutters, but it is not easy to do well.Given the quantity, price and that they can be made to work very well for most uses, I believe these are an amazing value.

Inexpensive, but works
These aren't the best quality, but they are a great value and simple to use. Make sure you have a proper crimp tool!This pack is a good selection of wire sizes.

Great spade connectors
Love these spade terminal connectors. The set comes with adequate quantities of both male and female terminals. I purchased these to rewire my tailer. These terminals are heat shrinkable, which makes them valuable for protecting electrical work from environmental exposure.

Nice.
I like the fact that I can heat shrink the connector to make a nice tight seal. Pretty cool!

You get what you pay for
If you are the kind of person buying heat shrink connections, I expect you are the person who wants a job well done. Yes these heat shrink but geeze they could not use cheaper/thinner metal in the connector. The only thing holding them in place is the heat shrink. Do not use for anything you dont want burnt to the ground in the next few years.

Good product for the price
I’m really surprised by the quality of the set. Connects tightly and the heat shrink works well too

Great product, poor packaging
Package arrived damage. Connectors themselves work great as expected. Shrank great with heat gun.

Came as shown.
Worked well for my application.Definitely cleaner than my old electrical tape connections. Once you have made your connections and checked everything works properly first, then hit the heat shrink with the heat gun.It’s all locked up Clean, Easy.
