I have a Rhino 4200. The 1/4" heat shrink tubing shrinks down to 22AWG okay.
You can break it loose so it will slide. In fact, I made a tool to help slide
the tubing on all sizes.
5 years later, still legible. Except in the engine compartment. Some of those
are getting hard to read from dirt/oil/grease.

Whoa. Eudora. Haven't heard of that in more than a decade. :-) You
certainly brought a nostalgic smile to my face this morning, Bob.
I was a died in the wool MH user. Then switched to Netscape. Then
Thunderbird. I liked having my email in plain text files that could be
moved from desktop to desktop to desktop as I upgraded my hardware. Simple.
Reliable. Then I found myself using multiple devices and POP + Thunderbird
got unwieldy so I switched to IMAP + Thunderbird. Even that got to be a
pain, particularly when the interwebs were slow or I spent a long time away
from home on a trip. I finally joined the dark side and switched to a paid
G Suite account. The Gmail UI isn't too bad, runs on any device that
happens to be in my hand at the moment, and has POP and IMAP for
interfacing to old clients (or exporting mail) should I ever want to do
that. The only downside is that I have to pay for it. (Do note that I am
talking about the paid G Suite, which does not have ads, and not the free
Gmail which does serve up ads.)
Give it a thought. If you want to move your archived emails into Gmail,
it's simple and I can coach you through it.

Yeah, Eudora does that . . . and it turns
out that the problem is not on my end.
My email server is having trouble getting
the handshake for outbound mail. Matt
runs my website and email server . . . I'll
have to bug him about it.
Eudora has served me well for decades. It doesn't
need to 'install' to run under windows. In fact,
when on the road, I can move and run three separate email
accounts on my travel laptop out of a thumbdrive . . .
then put the whole thing back on the desktop when
I get home.
The plain text archives have proven valuable
several times when I had to find a conversation
based on a short character string.
Sometimes, the best way to drive a nail is
with a hammer . . . and Eudora has proven
a capable hammer. I think Matt uses it too.

Art I don't think free gmail has ads any more. Maybe it's just my version
but I can't find any ads and cannot remember seeing any for at least a
decade.

Both my regularly used email accounts are with gmail. No ads. Think
about it; google doesn't need to push ads at us because they're
collecting our lives & selling them to the people who *do* push ads at us.
I *really HATE* gmail's native web interface. I use Thunderbird as my
email client; works across computers but unfortunately their team hasn't
had the resources to port it to android. Closest thing to a decent email
client I've found for android is Bluemail. Far from ideal, but much
better than the gmail app; at least for me.
