Heat Shrink vs. Cold Shrink - Which Should You Use?
Great video! Hollis is a fountain of great information! I'm sure we could talk DAS for hours on end.
Uh, I think those GIANT floves are just WRONG.
How about a straight wrap application (instead of spiral wrap), perhaps with a cable tie on either end, tightening the cable ties as you go? The tape may need to be a little wider for straight wraps or maybe just overlap. I think the concept has potential for when you can't get shrink tubing over an end - thanks.
It looked like you were melting the cables! I saw the white cord on the left side create bubbles. Is that just one solid strand of copper wire under the tape now?
No cables were damaged in the process
Wow... What an inspiration! As a fellow parent I couldn't even imagine the strength it would take to do what this amazing woman does. Anything anyone does to make our kids safer at school is something we should all be behind.
She's amazing. I admire her for what she's been doing.

Great discussion of Public Safety and BDA/DAS systems. I agree that these are important topics that are still in the early stages of development. Many AHJs are only just beginning to adopt measures requiring them in their areas. This means that we have a lot of work to do in the future, but it also presents us with a lot of opportunities. I think that we can continue to make progress in this area and make our buildings (schools, hospitals, apartments, etc.) safer for the people who use them and the emergency responders who may need to access them. BR
This information must get out! and we are here for the assignment
Gil. Nice to see you!
Glad I watched the video, I was wondering if it worked.... now I know it doesn't
Great points Dave, especially regarding the required AHJ information to be provided, by the code they are enforcing. Although, there are a number of cities that have their own systems and the AHJ is the PD and license is owned by the city and managed by the police lt. (think Homestead and Plantation FL and City of Hackensack NJ, just off the top of my head) In reality, the Police are the majority user of these systems, but there is no Police building code, thus falls on the fire marshals shoulders.
Thanks Wayne!
Nice to know how to "break in".....lol
Great one Wayne!!
DO IT WITHOUT THE FUNKY MUSIC
its funky and you know it!
Good job!
Thank you Dominic!
Kevin was amazing! Great having him on the program!

I appreciate the focus on our industry. The challenges faced in one area seem to present everywhere and shining a light on it will hopefully bring about positive changes.
Thank You! for tuning in!
Nice stuff! Love it
Thank you!
I love it when clips short clips with limited amounts of time use the filler pattern and then cut off right in the middle of something really important because that just really makes my day Downloaded I'm blocking your channel but before I block your channel I'm going to go to every single video you ever posted open it up and diwn vote it
Great info!
Thank You!
Attach a deflector to your heat gun for improved distribution of heat.
Good work Gentlemen!
Thanks @nysurfer51!
Why would you use heat shrink tape for that? Wouldn't you use a cable tie? (the clue being in the name). It's not a good advert as it's made a proper mess of it
If you need to wrap a large length of grouped cables , say a meter long, this would be much neater . I don't know how much this stuff costs , and whether this makes it only viable for hobby or maker projects. The only other thing i can think of is to give fixed cables better shielding. Maybe this would create overheating tho in some cases...
This was great, thanks! I'm preparing for the CompTIA A+ exam.
tryed it..seems too thick
Take the gloves off.
I want to purchase please model no with description
Hello, here is the direct link to purchase the Gamma Bolt www.gammaelectronics.net/cable-identification/heat-shrink-printers/gamma-bolt/gamma-bolt-printer-packages/
What kind of dryer is that? And, would a normal hair dryer work?
Heat gun works best
What is the size of heat shrink tube used in this video in mm ?
song is a banger at 1.5x speed
1.25x is even better!
Nasty.
Great intro primer team. Im sure many new tech can benifet from this.
Thank you!
Nice video, but next time could you add more interruptions to show your logo more often?
Noted!
I use hot glue on the tips...looks hella ugly but stays fresh as new even after 3 years. You do have to reapply it once a year though.
Good concept. Why not have it mildly adhesive to start wrapping. Heat just shrinks it.
The heat actually warms up the adhesive so it can be applied. So, the heat serves two purposes, getting the heat shrink to start shrinking and helping the adhesive to become sticky.
Agree, manual or with the drill, defenetly We need few for the team they will love it.
Awesome! Feel free to reach out to our team at Sales@GammaElectronics.net so we can help you out.
Learned 7mm works perfect. If you are doing the entire length of the cable end to end (versus just to tips), you'll find 8mm is easier to feed the cable through the tube. 6mm is just too damn small. 10mm will work too IF there is a lot of shrink, but your final product wont look or feel as good. Conclusion 7mm for tips only, 8mm for entire length is best. Good luck all my cables now look great and feel STRONG and durable. Woop
I used this tool and with their connectors multiple times. It's a game changer for installers. I highly recommend it. Saves time and it's alot easier for greenhorns to install connectors when using this tool
That Black tube what is the name?
What is the name of that black cord
How did you get the heat shrink tube around the cord? I am assuming the cord was cut and the video does not show this as the tube is far to narrow to get around a USB C end.
The cord was not cut actually. The tubing did fit over the lightning end, we just pushed it further down the cord and then back up over the lightning connector in the video.
