    How do I make this right?


    They say a picture is worth a thousand words but I think I still need to ask a question.....
    ok, I ordered 4 of those
    cut that off of there
    removed that thing
    got some of that stuff to put that on
    but have no clue what to use to put it back together....
    The question is simply "what size shrink tube do I need"
    I can't remember working with anything larger than a 4 guage wire....


    Thanks for your input guys, I hope you got a laugh out of it...
    OK, You Go First!!!

    This is how I waterproof them. I trim 1/8" ins. of wire close to esc. Then cover esc with JBweld. Just JB 1 side at a time and clean off top fets before dry.

      Homedepot and Lowes sells large heatshrink tubing. I would buy the size that will JUST slip over assembled esc.

        Thermal paste goes on the Fets then the water cooling plate gets put on top, you can either coat the entire unit in DP270 which will also waterproof it or heatshrink it. Personally id use DP270
