    I find 5.5mm bullet connectors to work very well for my 30 amp 10AWG silicone wiring setups. Have not had anything close to failure with them.

    Not to mention knowing just where to drill the hole in the concrete wall, and what channel to jam for the wifi alarms and such. (Locals had been having wifi trouble all weekend.) An inside job for sure.
