Crimp or splice solder the wires, then liquid insulator or hot melt .
You can buy commercial waterproof connectors for splicing wires.
Bullets + shrink wrap are not waterproof.

relevant, sourcing the good stuffspinningmagnets said:For a very small price increase, make sure to get "Marine" heat shrink. Its designed for boats, and it has an internal coating of a heat-activated glue, which seals away the connection from any moisture or oxidation.

Maybe , unlike you, they expect customers will want to disconnect the harness at some time in the future ?Timelord said:Yeah, I guess the companies like EM3EV and Tongsheng who put out wiring harnesses using these connectors are a bunch of idiots, unlike the geniuses here.
Maybe there's another connector in the line that's supposed to be connected and disconnected while the bullet connectors are only there to connect the pigtails. But it doesn't take a genius to know that.Hillhater said:Maybe , unlike you, they expect customers will want to disconnect the harness at some time in the future ?
But it doesnt take a genius to consider that possibility !
