Wago Wire Connector

Love these things! Sure, wire nuts are cheaper and work great, but I was first introduced to these when installing a Wink Relay for my smart home. The relay came with a few of these (or some version of them) and they were a lifesaver because I was using a box that was at the end of the line and had a boatload of wire nuts and connectors in a small space. When it came time to push it all in the gang box, it wouldn't fit. But when I took several of the larger wire nuts out and used these instead, it freed up a LOT of room and everything fit again. Definitely makes it easy to recover some space in a crowded gang box when you need it. And they are an elegant solution. Easy to use and clean installation. You can easily tell if they are connected and it is just a really nice way to do things. At roughly 10 cents a piece at the time that I bought them, they aren't cheap - but unless you are doing a whole house, then they aren't expensive either. They are worth it to me for the ease of use and space savings they offer. Oh yeah, and the box is really nice too! It actually has a design that lets you open and close it easily. It is surprisingly well done for a box that holds a bunch of wire connectors!
