This is a remix that requires no supports to print, and uses a textured cap instead of a tab.

This is a cap that covers the female end of an xconnect cable used for Halloween/Christmas LED lighting.  Useful for sealing up unused outputs or power injection runs.

I really liked the original design, but was not completely happy with the need to print it with supports.  

I remixed this to include a textured cap instead of the tab in the original design.

I have only printed a prototype (shown in pictures) with Atomic Red PLA, but if your cable is exposed to the sun PETG might be more appropriate.  I am leaving this prototype in the San Diego October sun for a little while to see how it fairs.  

Printed with 15% infill and no supports, Generic PLA setting in PrusaSlicer on a MK3S+.

These are the xconnect pigtails I use that fit the best: https://link.amazon/B047RXWFz
