Assume this has a 2:1 shrink ratio

I was using this for audio cables on 1/4" TRS plugs. My cable is much narrower than typical mic/line cables so I needed to be able to have a pretty high shrink ratio. This product doesn't list it, so I took a chance. Appears it's only a 2:1 which wasn't nearly enough. If my audio cable was thicker then the 1/2" pieces would've been perfect.

Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Heat shrink only went to about half then quit shrinking. This might work for larger items, but did not shrink to fit the diodes for my truck. I could pull the diodes right back out after "shrinking".

 
Works just great for me! ...

Works just great for me! You do need a good heat gun, and I have mine set at 450 degrees Farenheit. I used the very small stuff to insulate LED leads right up against the LED itself without any problem.
