And guess what?. Look at what I got here yesterday, [image attached] (the all mighty,lol).. Think I’m joining the crew, haha
I’ve been looking at all heat shrink tubes I could find, and came to a conclusion: I can have a variation of “wall thickness after contraction” (0,56mm/1,0mm/1,4mm) depending on what tube type and diameter I choose, but my question is, with your experience with CC, about the lead being toxic there’s any chance of migration from the inner tube to the skin? And the chance of the tube develop some “scratch” over time of use, should I go for a higher “wall thickness after contraction” value?
Or as long as the lead coil stays encapsulated under the tube and with no “dents” or “scratch” it will be just fine independent of the wall thickness? I made this question cause the only good side of having a higher wall thickness is for “safety”, the downside is the coil become larger and maybe less flexible and friendly..
Also, how much epoxi you putted into the lead wire tip? 3mm or 4mm epoxi wall?
