I find a propane torch to be a simpler way to do it. There are no power
cords to mess with.
Just keep passing the flame across the heat shrink for a few seconds at a
time, and it will shrink right down. I always start at one end of the
shrink and work gradually toward the other end, so as not to leave any
bubbles.
