    The terminals on the batts and the lights look a bit dodgy – any decent tapes out there which last longer than insulating tape in the rain.

    Self amalgamation tape bonds over time into a solid block apparently, repaired one of my lights by building it up so that the ‘turn’ in the cable wasn’t so close to the connector (that link was the 1st I found, the stuff I used was only about 10mm wide)

    Worth considering some better Connectors the waterproof seal would help alleviate the issue in the future, remember you also need a set for the charger

    The terminals on my solar storm head unit worked loose around a year ago,although the connection inside the unit remained intact it would have been a matter of time before it stopped working.

    Two dollops of sugru around the terminal sorted it and its been perfect since.

    Is that surgru as good as it looks?
