Good products (10 out of 10 were good)

Based on previous reviews I tested the pigtail connectors before using them. All 10 were connected, with no shorts and with the correct polarity. The insulation of both the wire and the cable jacket is quite thick, making the cable a bit stiff. This is suitable for cables intended for use in CCTV cameras where part of the cable may be exposed to the weather. The plugs worked well in the outlets I used them with.

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • Useless features

Complete nonsense - waste of time, use 18AWG pigtails instead

Even 2 amps don't hold up reliably. Waste of time, brittle low quality copper (if it is copper) - wasted 2 priceless days and potentially over $100 worth of hardware damage trying to figure out what's wrong. only $2. You can always make more money, but you can never get the time back. I wish this supplier wohun woohoo what a waste.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Reliability

Works as a heating element - and it's no good

After I connected one of the wires and applied power, I noticed that there was a low voltage at the end of the connector. Then I saw smoke as the cable began to melt. Luckily I turned off the electricity in time before the actual fire broke out. The buzzing of the cable probably caused a short at the end of the plug, which explains why the cable began to melt along its entire length. Good thing I was there to kill the Force at the time, who knows what might happen.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Out of fashion

NOTE: Actual wire size is 22 AWG; amazing seller

AWG was too low for my Odroids (they need 18 apparently) but five stars because all other electrical tests were fine, build quality is good and the sellers were really great - they responded very quickly and even refunded my money because the description on this page didn't contain any information about the sensor at the time. I will definitely order from them if I ever get a chance. All in all a great experience, just didn't turn out to be the right place for the job.

Pros
  • A few competitors
Cons
  • are unreliable
