Making Splices in 12V Wiring
[move][/move]I find the thin tubular splices for use with 12V wiring to be very difficult to use. And, apparently, I am not alone judging from the condition of the four splices I removed from the wires on my old porch light.
I do have a tool for making these crimps, but it is just not that easy to use. So -- I was wondering if it would be okay to use a pair of Vise Grips to completely close the open ends of these tubes as well as compressing about an additional 3/16ths inch of each connector?
Comments and suggestions, please.
