Watertight electrical connector

thingiverse

I initially designed this to connect two cables severed by the lawnmower :-) Thought it might be usefull for someone else. Basically, a small box with a self retaining lid that is filled with silicone sealant. I decline of course any responsability in case of injury or anything else that might happen with this object. I made two of them and it works like a charm. Silicone is used as a cable insulator. I do have to mention however that in my case those cable are on low voltage (24V).
