2-Pin COB LED Strip Connector, 8mm Solderless, 10 Pack | Wire-to-Strip Clamp for 8mm COB and SMD 2835 Single-Color Strips, 5V–24V DC, Clear Housing

I installed two different sets of COB LEDs using the 8mm Biantie connectors, and didn't have an issue with ANY of them. SO much better than my previous experience with LightingWill connectors, which always suffered from intermittent connections. One thing - Biantie says that the connectors can be pried open with the proper-sized screwdriver. That's a true statement, but what Biantie DOESN'T mention is that just because you can reopen the connectors DOESN'T mean that the connector can be reused after it has been "unsnapped". The tiny plastic tabs/nubs that lock the connectors in the "closed" position have a tendency to shear off when the connector is pried open, meaning that the connector won't lock "closed" again.

These crimp on connectors for LED strip to low volt wire (I used 18 ga to connect to 8mm COB LED strip) are infinitely better than the screw down connectors. You don’t need to strip these insulation on these unlike the screw down. My LED light was occasionally turning off until I replaced every connection with these, now it’s solid. Watch the video in the product images - it’s super helpful for how to align the “teeth” with the copper pads. These are easily hand pressed while the other wire side requires a hand tool to clamp tightly to lock the little clear tabs on the side.

Perfect to run under cabinet lights. Connections are easy for do it yourselfers.

Perfect fit and it's the easiest installation connector I found, and I tried a lot of them.

If you knew to buy these you probably had a good idea of how to use them but without instructions the first thing to is figure out orientation. They show pictures of the two folding sections for the wiring and the LED strip but don't make it terribly clear that the folding sections are down toward the backing side of the LED. I would also want to insert the LED fully into the housing but then the spade in the connector wouldn't press into the center of the pad on the LED so I don't really know if I truly connected them the best but they do work. It does need 22 gauge wire as if you drop any smaller it will not bite into those and stay connected. They are working so far and were pretty easy to install.

They work wonderfully from wire to light strips, but a tad more difficult connecting light strip to light strip. Nevertheless, they work, and they endure.

These are modified 8mm 3 pin connectors. All they did was remove the middle pin on both ends. I guess they thought I was stupid and wouldn't notice, little do they know I order a lot of connectors I mess with a lot of LED lights. I'm guilty of modifying connectors as well but not to sell to anyone trying to pass it off as a two pin connector when it's totally 3 pin. I'll still use them because they still work but this is stillsome BS.

UPDATE: One of these started getting intermittent. I tried squeezing it tighter, which didn't really work. I tried reseating the cables and recrimping with it, which didn't work. It just refused to make good contact. I ended up just soldering the wires directly to the LED strip. The other two connectors that I used are working fine, for now. These seem to work pretty well when new, but the real test will be how they are doing in 5+ years. They are easy to use. Just make sure the led power pads line up with the little clamping pins. The pins are semi-destructive to the pads, which is a bit of a downside, except that it ensures a good connection. Also make sure to use the right gauge wire on the other end. The clamps do fairly securely snap into place, so make sure you get it right the first time. They can be unsnapped, but it's easy to damage the locking mechanism. I also would never use these in an installation that moves regularly. It may be possible for these to open up with enough movement over time.

No los eh instalado espero funcionen a lo esperado pero se observan jien hechos.

Répond à mes attentes

These worked great! They were easy to use and even without knowing exactly what I was doing with these connectors I rewired my strip lighting perfectly!! No sodering or wire stripping required!

Facile d’utilisation et rapide !

Product is a good design, I just find that if you're connections are not right the first time, its hard to re open these connectors, and then to re install. otherwise they worked well for my purpose.
