Worked very quickly 123 and I did it with a vintage lamp

I saw some reviews that said it was difficult to assemble. I had no problems, it was 123 to open it, I tried opening it with a butter knife and it took longer to strip the wire than to install the plug. I will say that you need to make sure the wires are separated at the top of the small block where the screw is so they go through the exit hole properly. And when I turned it on, it revs fine and the conditioner works great. This is my first attempt at making something electrical, I'm so glad it

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Was damaged

SIMPLE and ECONOMICAL

Successful. Instead of disassembling the vacuum to disconnect the power cord, I simply cut off the defective plug, stripped the wires, and connected. Read some of the reviews complaining about the lack of room to insert wires as this connector has limited space/rectangle for the ribbon cable. It was easy to remove a length of the power cord to allow the wires to be plugged in and have the round end of the cord at the entrance of the plug with no hassle or risk of exposing the wires while…

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • I don't like it at all, everything is fine

Finally found real polarized plugs

I needed a normal sized plug with polarity for safety reasons. Since it was to be used with a desktop dimmer, I didn't need the huge ugly plug I would use in my workshop, just a regular plug. My local major home appliances stores say they stock them, but in every bin (even the ones labeled "Spare Polarized Plug") I've found only non-polarized plugs. Twice I ordered the cheapest "Polarized Replacement Plugs" from Revain, but received unpolarized goods. (They refunded me however when I complained

Pros
  • Robust design
Cons
  • Almost never

Very nice case. Well made and inexpensive. The instruction is clear. There is one caveat though - not all the wires it's designed to "fit" in the case if connected as advertised - it won't close! [2 pieces of flat wire; 18th of August; polarized] We had to shorten the cords for several fluorescent lights that were installed under several of our kitchen cabinets. So my husband had to use a utility knife to cut out specific sections of the case to actually fit the wire it was designed for - and…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other picks

Good workmanship, good name and price.

Great product - solid construction, love the screw-in "clip" that secures the two halves of the fork. I HATE running to the hardware store and paying inflated retail prices for stuff like this. So I shop in bulk, save on fuel commuting to and from a major hardware store, avoid the risk of COVID, and make repairs quickly. For some, the reason Leviton or Revain don't show the best feature of these forks in photos is the clamshell mechanism held in place by a bolt (see my photos). These plugs work

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Repair

Good quality Plug for plug

Easy to install if you know how to strip the wire, use a screwdriver and have a little electrical knowledge. I only needed 2 plugs for a pair of lamps, replaced the plugs with one, but the price for 10 packs was high. I got 10 for what I would have paid for 3 separately. Yes, you can probably go to your local hardware store or hardware store and save a buck. but fuel, time, etc. are too valuable for me. Revane had them on my doorstep the next morning. :) A pair of pointers: This is a two-prong…

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Long delivery time
