WAGO 221 Lever-Nuts 36pc Compact Splicing Wire Connector Assortment. Includes 221-412, 221-413, 221-415

As an individual who regularly deals with wiring, the WAGO 221 Lever-Nuts 36pc Compact Splicing Wire Connector Assortment is a groundbreaking discovery. This inventive product obviates the requirement for the conventional and finger-aching technique of twisting wires to fasten a connection. I firmly and without reservation grant it a 5-star rating, and here's why. This WAGO kit is an absolute delight for establishing firm and secure connections. The process is as simple as piecing wires together, and voila, your connection is ready. That said, exercise caution: the lever-nuts possess considerable grip strength and can pinch if not handled with care. On one occasion, I was assigned with the renovation of a 1950s house that had a complex and hazardous network of antiquated wiring. Employing the WAGO lever-nuts, I was self-assured in establishing connections that I anticipate will endure for decades. It was as though I was launching the house's electrical system into the modern age! The intelligent feature lies in the clear plastic design. It facilitates an instantaneous visual verification of the stability of your connection, thereby amplifying the user-friendliness and dependability of the lever-nuts. The appeal of these connectors is also heightened by their compact size - small but potent. The variety included in the kit elevated its value, enabling a multitude of uses and rendering it an exceedingly adaptable collection of instruments. WAGO has eliminated the grueling days of wire twisting, which often resulted in my fingers being tormented and wires being broken. These lever-nuts have won my heart completely as they have significantly improved the quality of my wiring projects. To put it concisely, the WAGO 221 Lever-Nuts introduce a groundbreaking innovation in wire connections - they are easy to handle, secure, compact, adaptable, and provide visual confirmation. As a result, they are an unequivocal prerequisite for individuals who deal with wiring on a regular basis. I have permanently abandoned the outdated twisting approach and ardently suggest that others do the same.

I had been reading reviews on some wire connectors that popped up in my feeds and the general recommendation was to stick with the original Wago 221 lever-nut connectors. I happened to have a wiring project at hand and bought this small "sampler" box to try them. OMG! These things are brilliant! They easily accommodate a variety of wire gauges and are easy to use and install. I think they take less time to prepare and install than traditional twisted wire nut bundles. Best of all, in an electrical box that is both a junction and contains switches or receptacles, these things are incredible at saving space, especially if you are also trying to include bulky items like dimmers or home automation smart switches/outlets. Your ground wires and neutrals can be connected and grouped neatly together in an easy-to-trace row of flat connections and pressed out of the way to the back of the box instead of the giant wad of twisted wires finished with a huge wire nut (and sometimes electrical tape) that tend to consume a huge chunk of the valuable "real estate" inside the electrical box and often requires you to "squeeze" the switch/outlet into the tight remaining space. These clever lie-flat lever-nuts leave plenty of room for the switches or outlets. Connections are quick and easy and almost flawless every time. You barely have to strip any insulation off the end of a wire for connection. In this case, it is almost "less is more." I have been frustrated many times by a wire losing contact in that twist under a wire nut - or a short when a wire is inadvertently contacted/pierced as the switch/outlet is screwed in place. Often the wire shorts are difficult to trace and identify, and a pain unpacking and unbundling and re-twisting the wires together (or mending an inadvertent piercing of the wire insulation. Not a problem with these ingenious connectors. The assortment comes with 2, 3, and 5 wire connectors. I thought I might need to connect more than 5 wires, but that did not prove to be the case. If it were necessary, two connectors could be easily "daisy-chained." I encountered a couple of 4 wire connections that "wasted" one of the "slots" of the 5 connector lever-nuts, and I momentarily wished there was a 4 wire connector - but apparently, that doesn't exist. While I kind of hated "wasting" the extra wire "slot," I didn't lose any sleep over it. I liked these 221 series Wago lever-nuts so much after trying them out on the current wiring project, I have since purchased a larger assortment pack as I don't want to ever run out because I don't plan on using traditional wire nuts ever again! And I don't want to if I can avoid it! Thank you Wago for a great product, and these assortment packs are a great way to get started using them. While I haven't looked, I presume I can purchase bulk packs of a single-size connector like you can with traditional wire nuts if I find I am using a lot of one size. But, that is a "problem" for another day...

These are the best. Secure and easy to use. No more wire caps!

I was doubtful of how good these things were a few years back when I saw diy YouTubers using them. Safe to say, they are extremely simple to use and just work. The biggest benefits I saw were for 4-5 wire connections. It definitely beats having to use a wire nut. Using the 4-5 lever connections was super clean and simple. It helped me trouble shoot some connections to determine which was the line and which was connected to another switch. I would definitely buy more when I run out. Such an awesome product.

I like these. Strip all of the wires, stick them in and snap the holder. When weighed against the total cost of rewiring, they aren't that expensive. But I did hesitate. Then I bought them.

these things made installing tons of new outlets in multiple apartments super easy and fast they seem pretty durable, they seem like they are a safer and more organized option than wire nuts

Extremely useful electrical item. Makes wiring so much simpler. Just replaced a bunch of electrical outlets. This connectors made the job much easier and with the levers, any future changes will be a snap.

I have used Wago wire nuts a number of times now. I’m a homeowner DIYer who trusts my use of lever - nuts more than traditional wire nuts. Foolproof for me. They are safe, reusable and are easier to use.

Amazing selection. Will buy again
