Review on 💡 Convenient SamIdea 10Pieces 2.54mm Terminal Assorted for Easy Wire Connections by Darrin Parasson

These terminal blocks are cage type terminals. When unscrewing, the clip fully releases the wire. The cage opens and closes (clamps) in a linear direction. This design is superior to other cheaper clamps where the screw flexes the tongue onto the wire when tightened. When loosening the screw, the metal tab on the wire remains bent. It would be ok if you just insert the wire once and leave it there forever. However, if you're like me and need to move the wires around and reuse the terminal, you'll need a small screwdriver or pickaxe to pry back the tab to open the terminal and make room for the new wire. This applies in particular to stranded wire. The filaments do not have the rigidity to push the tongue up and the filaments fuzz causing poor connection or shorting of the strands to adjacent terminals which is very annoying. Save yourself the headache and use these terminals instead. Sure, they can be a bit more expensive, but they can be used over and over again without the hassle of bent metal tabs from lower quality terminals.
