WAGO 221 Lever-Nuts 75pc Wire Connector Assortment Pack with Case

My niece and me are doing some rewiring in my house and using these have made it so much easier. We are getting the job done faster

Very glad that I paid the extra money for the Wago brand name. I looked at some of the cheaper, knockoff connectors. In fact I had a set that was almost half the price of the Wago in my cart. Then I decided to do a little research before buying them. What I discovered was the ones I had weren’t UL approved and wouldn’t pass an electric inspection. I wasn’t so worried about that as I was the potential danger from using a substandard connector. There’s a lot of things to consider when buying these. For instance, how difficult is it to unclip the snap. If it’s too easy it can unclip when you push it back into the junction box. Also ,how much actual metal to wire contact is there? Not enough and it can heat up and melt the connector. Finally, how much metal is actually going from one wire to the other? Not enough and the metal can melt and act like a fuse causing problems. As far as I can tell these knockoffs aren’t tested, or worse tested and failed. I’m guessing that for most applications they would work fine. But for the price between genuine and imitation why take the chance? If you have even one issue with one connector you’d regret not spending the extra money. Of course, take anything I write with a grain of salt. I haven’t personally tested either the Wagos or the cheaper ones. I just watched some YouTube videos and justified spending the extra money based on what I saw.

Wire nuts were just not working in this application of a new circuit from a new sub-panel to add receptacles in my garage for freezers and power tools with 12 ga stranded wiring coming through conduit to a junction box, and these work great. They simplified wiring in a junction box that is hard to reach and has two different circuits with common ground wires. They will also make it much easier to add additional outlets to this new circuit down the road when I get that far in our home and garage renovations.

This product is fantastic and completely eliminates the need for wire nuts. These are more secure, easier to use, and provides a much cleaner install over tradtional wire nuts.

Ive used these Wago connectors several times and find them much easier then wire nuts. The twisting of wire nuts on a big job can make your hand sore and you dont have to worry about Wagos untwisting. They are a bit more pricey then wire nuts, but are so superior I wouldnt use anything else. Get the Wago brand, imitations are not as good.

Ingenious and easy to use. Saves work and the worry about bad connections, or connections failing after pushing everything back into the box.

The redesigned WAGU lever wire connectors are superior to other lever wire connectors on the market. The broad lever and positive connection make these wire connectors very easy to use.

To think…how many wire nuts have I smashed into boxes over the years. These thing would have added years to my life in reduced stress.

Ive had good experience before with Wago connectors but ran out of them. One day, I was in a rush to finish a project and couldnt wait a day or two for delivery so I bought something similar at my local home improvement store. I regretted it because the connections were somewhat loose and ended up with intermittent disconnections. Do yourself a favor and get the real deal, real Wago brand and not imitations. I chose this box in particular because I wanted less of the 2-wire connector and more of the 3 and 5. This the best, easiest, quickest, and reliable way to connect wires together. I will never go back to the old method with twist connectors.

There are a few home projects/repair professionals on YouTube that I follow. That’s where I found out about WAGO connectors. They’re always using WAGO connectors in their electrical projects and recommend them for DIYers. I had a couple simple electrical projects to do, so I decided to try these. Everything about WAGO connectors that these guys have been preaching on their YouTube channels is dead-on ― these are soooo easy to use. Much easier than typical wire nuts. Highly recommend these for DIYers doing simple electrical projects! There are quite a few WAGO package options available on Amazon. This happened to be the one I thought would best fit my needs for simple electrical projects. If this package doesnt have the right number of each type of connector for your needs, search around a bit...Im sure youll be able to find a package that suits your needs. Note: my electrical projects were very simple. I don’t attempt complex or heavy duty electrical projects, so I don’t know how well these would work in those situations.
