Hey everybody, I recommend this highly.
It's the Harbor Freight "Marine Heat Shrink Tubing Assortment". It is item 65798, and has 42 pieces that are 3 1/2 inches long.
It's under $7.00 for a very nice assortment of marine heat shrink tubing that has diameters from 3/4" to 1/8". Having a wiring assortment like this is handy enough, but this is marine heat shrink tubing, which means that it is polyolefin tubing, which is much better than the standard PVC tubing, but it also has a built-in heat activated adhesive that makes it much stronger, and provides a positive moisture seal, and it provides mechanical strain relief because in glues itself to the wire and end.
Very handy to have, and it shrinks to 1/3rd of it's normal size, so it will even shrink tightly when you use an insulated end.
I used it when wiring the Pig of Plastic, and thought it was well worth the money!
