Solder and seal via heat gun
This waterproof butt connector from Accele features low-temperature solder that bonds wires together strongly, along with heat shrink tubing loaded with hot glue, which creates a waterproof seal when heated. You slip a solder + shrink connector over one wire, twist the two stripped wire ends together, slip the connector back over the splice point, and heat it with a heat gun. The solder will melt and spread through the wire strands, the hot glue will melt to form a waterproof seal, and the shrink wrap will hold it all tightly together. Voila! You've got two wires connected together with a waterproof seal using nothing more than wire strippers and a heat gun. Warranty: 1 year.

Heat gun does melt the solder but without resin on the wires then the connection is questionable otherwise it is the best way to get a solid connection when needed for sensitive wiring connections.

Not what I expected

For some reason these did not work out for me. I first tried with a 1700 watt heat gun and then with a lighter and both times it seemed to melt the plastic before the solder inside melted.

When I used this for the first time, I had one of those "Why didn't I think of this?" moments. I have always soldered, and applied heat shrink to my wiring, and this makes it so much easier. I will be buying these things in bulk moving forward, and bought them in all three sizes. Note these are actually Yellow not blue for this size of wire, just like common butt connectors
