Waterproof (JST) connectors

Have started to think about refining the loom and waterproofing it for general use. In the past I have used general automotive connectors but have now moved to Waterproof JST (Japanese Solderless Terminal ) connectors. Sounds boring but I think it is good to leave a log of the waterproofing for inspections so I’m-a dumping images on here to make a record of it.

Great advantage of these is that they are small and take 20AWG cables with ease so all the low watt parts like LED electrics and COMMS can use them. I had some issues with water that might run back up cables beyond the connector but some heat shrink with internal glue has sealed that up to it is watertight.

Just need to do the rest.
