Used them in a race car I built one time for all the Autronics compute signal and power wires...  Worled great, and loads better than OE automotive connectors.  You DO need to pay particular attention to terminating and putting seals in properly.

And true to my OCD self, I flooded the connector cavities with non-drying, water-excluding gel right before assembly.  Never had a failure.

Seems like they could have some application to all the non-RF type connections made by we hams outdoors, particularly in open conditions.
