Go for the Del City heat shrinkable weather tite crimps. Crimp, heat, goo seals as it shrinks. They also have solder type connectors where there is a little tube of low temp solder inside the heat shrinkable cover. The solder melts when you hit it with the heat gun. BUT- don't grab one of these by mistake and crimp it, as you will get the intermittent connection from hell. Don't ask how I know this.

NMC/NPC I have had poor luck with the cheap/generic terminals. I even have a Paladin ratcheting crimper with the proper die for those types of insulated connectors to ensure the right force is applied and I've had those crimps come loose (granted the die is supposed to be for the "brand name" insulated connectors but...)
