|  Heat shrink sleeves for ESC's
Recently decased my micro pros and can't find any heat shrink locally to cover them with. LHS had stuff that was too big  . Radio shack nada. Same for lowes/HD. Electrical supply house wants $15 for a 6" piece that is waaay more heavy duty than I need.Who do you guys get it from? I'm thinking 1 1/4" sleeves should do it. |

Walmart doesn't have 1" diameter heat shrink like I'm talking about. I found some last night at a local hardware store when I went a neighboring town to grab some jeep parts last night. |

CBP (CheapBatteryPacks), Digikey (electronics supply house) or McMaster-Carr (industrial supply house). Digikey & MC likely have 1x as well as 2x shrink tube, the 2x will fit over a part but shrink down a lot further. |
