🔌 WAGO 221 LEVER-NUTS 36pc Compact Wire Connector Assortment: 16x 221-412, 12x 221-413, 8x 221-415 Review

Where have they been throughout my life? The most well-known series is 222 (gray), but I prefer 221. All cross-sections are accommodated despite the halved size of the terminals.

Some pros: Appear to be the same as the original. The marriage did not succeed in the end. It is effective. Below are some downsides: They simply arrived in a zip bag, with no additional wrapping. It's not clear to me whether or not it's been done before.

There are many fakes that are of an extremely excellent quality, but they do not have the attributes that were stated! You'll find several images of fakes and the distinctions between them and the original attached. In the picture with two different terminals, the one on the left is the authentic one, and the one on the right is a copy. The fake has implicit inscriptions melted into the plastic (for example, the word test on the test hole), the inscription on the flag can be erased by simply…

I will be using this new method of splicing electrical wires to old nuts every day! These lever nuts are the future. Wire nuts are cheaper, but I'm happy to pay the difference in price for the functionality and quality of WAGO's lever nuts! Excellent product, WAGO! If you're still using wire nuts, step out of your dark cave and into the light of WAGO (you won't regret it).

I bought these to solve a 4 wire problem - the nuts are not holding the 4 wires. My original solution was to use 2 wire nuts and have a jumper to connect the two. So each wire nut had 3 ends. Why 4 wires? The bathroom panel has a light switch, fan and heat lamp. There is also an incoming wire to connect the other 3 to neutral. WAGO solves this problem with a single connector and without jumpers. I can't run a wire as the timer (for the heat lamp) and fan switch have their own wires, not screw…

I've been doing minor electrical work for decades. I've always hated wire nuts because I just have a hard time trusting them. I've had far too many encounters finding loose wire nuts and questionable wiring situations behind switches, outlets, and fixtures. As all of these things with smart features get bigger, there's even less room for everything that fits in boxes. They are very easy to use: determine the number of wires, select the desired wago, cut the bare wire to the required length (if…

. You still need to follow the strip length guidelines for best results. With heavy bundles it still seems like a good idea to tape or heat shrink the levers around the levers as a backup as this is possible given overloaded electrical junction boxes and sockets. Leverage to find your way open. Sometimes the same conditions will cause traditional wire nuts, including the new quick disconnects, to loosen captive wires for the same reasons. Stranded with 14 gauge Romex solid core structure and…

I liked the product as it seemed easier to use than wire nuts and potentially safer. What most people don't know is that there is a very specific way to *properly* make connections with a wire nut. However, these handy items are a breeze to use, very quick to make strong connections and a lower profile than the nuts mentioned, making them easier to pack into narrow or cramped junction boxes. BUT! I've found that the tabs holding the connection EASILY pop open when you plug it back into the…

Thatsssssssssss I LOVE these things over the traditional "wire nuts". Replacement "strips" of the LED lighting. I noticed the "controllers" I had when you pulled the plug hard and when you restored power the bar blinked/rebooted for 2-3 seconds. This didn't suit my needs as I was planning on whipping it to serve as a "closet" light when you open and close the door. So I used these WAGOs to ground the RGB pins on the strip to force "WHITE" as the color of the strip and just powered the line from

I've read reviews on some of the wire connectors that have popped up in my ducts and the general recommendation was to stick with the original Wago 221 lever and nut connectors came in handy and bought this little "sampler" to try them out. MY GOD! These things are awesome! They easily fit a variety of wire gauges and are easy to use and install. I think they take less time to prepare and install than traditional bundles of twisted wire nuts. Best of all, having these things in an electrical…
