Heat-Shrink Tubing: Finishing My Roof-Wire Sections
My tubing assortment and heat gun came out during the last roof-routing session. Covering the exposed wire sections was a separate step from joining the wire ends and closing the junction boxes.
That session combined pulling the remaining wires, making the last LED connection and covering exposed sections after stripping. The tubing was one finishing supply within that sequence.
I also completed the remaining PVC joints and tightened the metal ties around the route. Keeping the tubing, connectors and entry fittings as separate supplies helped organize the different tasks leading up to the box covers.

My Takeaway for Choosing the Kit
I would compare the sizes I need first, then the way the case groups them. My black-and-red assortment and the Haisstronica alternative use two colors; Wirefy adds other colors in a divided case. The distinction here is supply organization and tubing selection, rather than treating the tubing as the connector that joins two wire ends.

Construction
Adhesive-lined sleeves
Tubing has to fit over the parts it passes before shrinking around the finished wire section. That makes the largest end fitting part of the size choice, alongside the final cable diameter. My diary already records the heat-shrinking work, while this assortment describes the material format kept in the kit. For later repairs, retain the tubing size with the connection notes and keep the remaining pieces sorted by diameter. This makes a small consumable easier to find during repeated wiring jobs.
Consider the largest fitting the unshrunk tube must pass over, then the final section it needs to cover.

Two Alternatives to Compare
The Haisstronica assortment groups black and red tubing, while the Wirefy kit adds several other colors. Both provide adhesive-lined tubing in divided assortments. Size selection, color organization and the layout of the case distinguish these kits.
