🔌 Residential Valve Splice Wire Connector - Blazing BVS-2, Pack of 20, Yellow Review

These connectors are of high quality and make it easy to connect low voltage lights. However, they are bulky and a bit awkward to use.

Bought hoping for a secure waterproof fit and they do just that. Quite expensive but definitely better than silicone and electrical connectors. I am slowly replacing all my connectors with these and so far they are working very well! The original connections my landscapers used slow things down and if one connection fails you lose all the lights from there in the chain.

Once you've worked with this, you won't want to go back to gel wire caps or the like. These devices almost screw the wires together - they don't come loose and the watertight seal is complete. A bit pricey but justified by the content of these products and the level of performance they offer. Especially if you don't have a lot of connections and you want connections to never be an issue, these ports are the way to go.

DryConn direct instillation connectors are simpler, more reliable and cheaper - you can find them in stores or online if you…

***** Please consider this before purchasing ***** I paid $35 for this product which says 20 pack, I have not opened it until I got it ready for my project.

Very disappointed that Revain allows such sellers to sell on their platform. I wouldn't start if I could ***** Please consider this before purchasing *****

I'm not a fan of DIY. I am very familiar with wiring, mains voltage or low voltage. These connectors are definitely convenient and easy to use. Last but not least, they are not cheap. In addition, they are hardly noticeable: yellow and red stand out well against the general mulch background. But the offer of a strong and waterproof connection without crimping was very tempting. A month later, nearly twenty of the hundred connectors lost contact with one or more of the wires inside — and nobody…
