    I use a lighter....hold it far enough away from the flame so that you don't set it on fire....just close enough until the heatshrink shrinks.

    Got a question? Start Here. Have you tried the Thread Index yet? Most questions can be answered there.

    I've heard that using a lighter works well if you use the HEAT and not the FLAME. I've never tried this, but if I had to, I'd make sure it was an adjustable bic lighter turned all the way down.

    Using the heat off a soldering iron works wonders for me. Just make sure you don't melt the jacket of the wire itself!

    I find using a soldering iron on heat shrink to be too slow.

    I just keep a cheap, adjustable, disposable lighter in with my soldering stuff.
    In order to see the Light,
    you must sometimes risk the Dark.
