Default using crimp-on electrical connectors

What I do, I slide the plastic sleeve back onto the wire before I
crimp.

Then, I solder.

Slide the plastic sleeve forward.

Slip on heat shrink tubing.

Heat shrink the tubing.

Couple layers of electrical tape over the heat shrink.

Duct tape over that.

Dry ( unlubricated ) condom rolled over the duct tape.

Plastic bread bag goes over all this.

Rubber bands to hold the bread bag.

Nylon tie straps to hold the rubber bands.

Stainless steel automotive hose clamp to hold the nylon tie
straps.

Never had this fail, once. Now, what were we doing?
