Really like these

As a DIY, these things are fantastic. Saves a lot of time, very easy to use, & reusable if you need to make any changes. I strongly recommend them!

I really like these, much thinner than a wire nut. You just lift the little tab slide in the wire then close the tab. They are really nice with strand wire you can slide them in and lock without tearing it up like a wire nut does when mixing a strand and solid wire

So much easier than other options Ive used and great quality!

I went cheap and got a set of the no-name connectors. 2 years later I have had to replace a couple of them because they just give out. Now I will only use the cheaper no-name ones for low voltage connections but for home 110v current - use these lever nuts

Honestly, wire nuts suck but theyre very cheap. These connectors are pricey but they make everything so much easier, especially when youre trying to connect multiple 12 gauge wires. Definitely not cost effective when youre wiring or re-wiring a house, but for small jobs they are worth every penny. I wish I would have tried these years ago, I just rewired my bathroom and couldnt believe how much time they saved me.

Easy to use

Nice assortment of connectors for the price if youre interested in trying these type of connectors. These make connecting solid wire and stranded wire much easier compared to wire nuts. They cost a little more than caps but are simpler to use-dont need to twist wires together, reusable and wont damage your wires like cap nuts or push connectors do. Buy in bulk packs to save some coin..for me 2 and 3 wire connectors used the most for fixtures and switches/outlets.

As a General Contractor, I often have clients that are undecided when it comes to lights and switch placements. It used to be a real hassle because designing on the fly when under a tight schedule can be very time consuming. Its similar to the proverbial moving company stories: Move the couch over here. Hmm...No, lets try over here...that doesnt work, lets move it back to where it was. Meanwhile, I am working with clients as well as subcontractors so it is important to know where the placements for the design will be. Wago wire levers changed the game. It allows me to quickly change fixtures, switches and placement without the hassle of wire nuts or push splices. Change your mind? No problem...When everything is settled, I can remove the hardware and put the wire back so the subs can move forward with client confidence. To me, thats worth the extra cost for these. The 5 wire splice is perfect for splicing ground wires together and takes hardly any time or effort to shove everything back in to the box. If you are bound to smaller boxes due to age or design, these are the only UL listed solution that can make it happen when the box cannot be replaced. Ever try to wire a dimmer switch into a box from the 60s? Its almost impossible. I will caution you to always double check: * Each wire that is inserted must be inserted all the way so you can see the end through the other side of the lever splice. If you cannot, you must open the lever, check your wire length and try again. * Fully depress the lever down so you feel it click past the indent which keeps it in place. Sometimes the lever looks fully depressed but it is actually not. * After pushing wires back into a box, double check that there are no levers that have lifted. This happens quite often and is not the fault of the design. The force of solid copper wires can be enough to rub against the levers and pop one or two open when pushing them in. It has happened to me frequently. If I know a project is complete and signed off, I will usually wrap the lever nuts once with 3M electrical tape. This ensures the levers will not pop open ... ever. When I think about the time I spend fitting fixtures for clients using other products, it easily adds up well beyond the extra cost of lever splices. Knowing a light fixture has to come back down for paint is no longer an ugnnn moment. If you know you are wiring something and it will likely never need to come back out again, I would actually advise using push/plug style splicers. They are just as fast but a chore to come back out (which is the point) They cost much less than the lever nuts so its a win win. Otherwise, the lever nuts are an amazing invention and will likely be here to stay. You can use them for car stereo wiring, home electrical and more. They even allow a mix of different wire types used together such as 18ga stranded with 16ga solid. Gotta love that.
