The item in my kit
I bought TICONN Heat-Shrink Crimp Terminals as part of my camper van equipment.

Where it fits my build
I brought the roof light wires and camera cables into a PVC conduit layout. That work included drilled enclosures, threaded fittings, cable glands, solder-seal splices and grouped wiring.
During the small-box stage, I drilled for a male PVC fitting and used a fitting inside as a retaining nut. I routed the camera cable through a gland into a tee and brought the light-wire groups toward the van entry.

My build notes
The wiring project was a sequence of individual connections and routes. The photographs show the intermediate stages, including open boxes and wrapped wire groups, before the remaining covers and conduit joints were finished.
I built the cable route a section at a time, bringing local connections into the larger conduit system.
Alternative products
Two alternatives to compare
Wirefy butt connectors use a crimp-and-shrink format for straight splices. TICONN solder-seal connectors use a solder ring instead of a crimped metal barrel, changing the joining method.
Wirefy Heat-Shrink Butt Connectors
These butt-splice connectors join wire ends through a crimped metal barrel. Their heat-shrink outer sleeves cover the connection after crimping.
These connectors combine a solder ring with heat-shrink tubing in a single sleeve. They join wire ends as heat shrinks the outer covering around the connection.
