Sopoby360PCS T Tap Wire Connectors AWG 22-10 Electrical Connectors Waterproof Quick Wire Splice Taps with Insulated Male Quick Disconnect Terminals Assortment Kit

Work as they should. Easy to use.

works great, use the right color for the right diameter wire, and you can use standard crimpers but use the heavy duty racketing crimpers for best results

I bought these to install landscape lights around my house. Initially I spent a fortune buying the ridiculously expensive connectors by Sunvie and Modtec. When I needed to install more landscape lights, I wised up and bought these very inexpensive connectors inspite of bad reviews. They are a little harder to install and require a few slight modifications, but they work just fine. The main problem is with the spade connectors. They don’t easily slip over the T-splice connectors. I ended up splitting the plastic sleeve around the spade so that the metal spade clicks into the T-splice for a solid connection. Also the T-splice connectors don’t always penetrate the insulation especially if the wiring has a more robust insulation. So I facilitated the connection by cutting a notch in the insulation with my wire stripper before applying the T-splice connectors. They all worked fine and it costed just pennies.

I recently used the T-Tap connector for a car stereo installation. The T-Tap connector made it easy to tap into the existing wiring without soldering. This was important to me because of the limited amount of space that I was working in. Very nice design and easy to use.

These gizmos are great replacements to dragging around a soldering iron, shrink wrap and electrical tape. A little care in aligning the connectors properly and using reasonable force will produce great results. I do not recall if there is a warning against their use them in standard home wiring applications, but I would reserve them for automotive and low voltage applications unless you are confident in your electrical prowess. Just use a little care to prevent open connections.

Where have you been for all my life?

The basic spade connectors seem to be adequate, however, if you use them with the t tap connectors make sure the spade is in the middle of the isolation boot. If its not, you need to make sure the spade is lined up into the opening of the t tap. Otherwise your connection won't be completed.Also the t tap splicing lug does not allow the wire to nest into the slot. (see pics ) I used good 18 ga wire with red connectors. First off I had to use wire strippers to bare the wire so that a good connection was provided. These t taps will not slice the wire sheathing and allow the wire to rest in the slot. I tried, and checked every one of the 14 red connectors on 18 ga wire.I tried the blue t taps for the same 18 ga wire and they worked properly only after I used the wire strippers to cut the slot in the wire sheathing.T taps are great ideas, but it has to work properly or it is much more time consuming than regular splices.I wasted 8 to 10 connectors and lots of time making them work properly.Actually If I hadn't used about 25 connectors I probably would have sent them back

It took two times from another vendor to try to get this product did not succeed I do have heat shrink butt connectors though and I finally got these I love them they're very handy kind of hard to live without if you do any kind of a electrical work
