Review on πŸ”Œ WAC Lighting HI-WT H Track I Connector, White - 5.03x1.78x1.02 Inches by Robert Sorrells

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This solves all problems when laying tracks!

If money were no object I wouldn't even buy regular 90 degree connectors. They solve all transition problems that can occur when laying a rail, especially when the surfaces are at an angle to each other. Even better if you are turning a corner and need to change the angle of the ceiling (like in my picture) this will do it all. You could even rotate the rail around its axis if you have it installed on your space station gallery. This is a complete solution to problems in such environments! If you don't understand this problem, believe me, it saves lives. They are essentially two connectors with a fully flexible connection between them. Everything is possible, even the thoughtlessly impossible! Someday when I have a high enough ceiling I'm going to build a track loop, and a few of these with a few track pieces will do the trick! In a way I think this is aesthetically better than the normal hard transitions as it removes some of the "stiffness" of a normal track setup. If you want your corners to be rounded then you are here. You can even stretch or compress the curve a bit if you're that compulsive. On the other hand, if you're that obsessive, chances are you won't have many splints on your ceiling at all. But it's good to have options! Note that this also solves the problem of fitting the "left" stanza at a 90Β° angle to the "right" as is sometimes required. You don't need such things when you have this product. Bend to the side, that's left, bend to the other side, that's to the right. It's well done too. WAC makes great stuff and they are perfect for the Lithonia H track. I'm hoping that the material, especially the soft plastic part of the track, is UV resistant. At least hard plastic parts can be repainted white if they have yellowed. Not sure if that's going to happen with this stuff, not that easy anyway.

Pros
  • Great price
