Low Voltage Wire Connector (16 Pack)

These work great. I ordered them again.

I like these low voltage connectors because they are easy to use.

I like the black color better than the bright hard to hide yellow of their competitor. Price is better too, though still higher than I would like.I have not tried them yet. So I’ll update once I’ve had a chance to see if they work and how long. It seems like it’s the same as the yellow ones I’ve used often before. They last and and don’t break while installing. They give a solid electrical connection in all weather installations.

I wish that all the 12V landscape lights just came with these connectors in the box! These are incredibly easy to install (much easier than the clamp-style connectors that come with the fixtures) and are very durable. The tip of the pin is so sharp and long that it easily makes a great connection and installation requires no tools. The only thing you have to do is strip the wires on the fixture, and separate the wires carrying the 12V current to the lamp. I wish I would have had these when I did my major install of all our 22 landscaping lights. I bought these because the original connectors started to fail and some of my lamps were very dim and I discovered it was the clamp-style connectors. Since using these, it solved my problem and they have been working flawlessly.

Worth every penny. I fixed a bunch of my landscape lights that stopped working bc they lost their bite into the wire. New attachments screw on tightly to the wire. I highly recommend this product

I had to replace some landscape lights and this was the first time I tried using a light without a integrated connector (which was sometimes the problem rather than the light). I was a bit skeptical about how well this would work but was pleasantly surprised. These connector are very well made and easy to install. I obviously haven't hand the opportunity yet but I suspect they can be reused when you have to replace the light. The seem to have a much better connection than the one that are integrated with the light fixture. Glad I tried these - they're the only way to go.

Bough these to install low voltage led lighting around the deck addition and adding lights to my bbq island. The standard connectors that come with low voltage lighting stink and never last or are difficult to make the initial connection. These are super simple to use and don’t have to worry about a loose connection down the road. Little pricey but you get what you pay for and these take very little time to install and eliminate all the other frustration.

This is one of those novelty type items that one sometimes has to purchase because no other solutions seem to work. On buying it, I fully expected it might not work, and I might have to return it. Surprise, surprise. These shunts actually provided a well-secured connection and extended the life of my Malibu bollard fixtures. Malibu and other low-voltage outdoor lights have, for years, come with clumsy electrical connectors that are hard to close and hard to keep closed on the wire carrying the juice. But by cutting those connection points off and reattaching the lights via these fairly simple yet ingenious connectors, the lights can continue to be used (as long as the component where the bulbs plug in hasn’t deteriorated, but that’s a separate problem with this type of fixture). As for the price, I think $16 got me 16 connectors, which is eight lights’ worth of electrical connection. Two dollars a light seems like a no-brainer steal to me, to be honest, since replacement fixtures or parts don’t seem to be available, Meaning you’d have to replace your entire system in order to maintain uniformity of style. Admittedly, I base value on what a thing does, not what it likely cost to produce the thing. In a case like this, I don’t really care if the manufacturer is making an 8000% profit, as long as the device works and produces a cost-effective solution for me.

Have used these connectors on 40 or so lights around the garden and they work great. Did have one plastic stem break but could have been a flaw in the moulding. Otherwise recommend to connect to 12/2 wire. I wrapped with tape to ensure waterproof...as I don't know if they are 100% waterproof. But quick and easy to install lights easily.

These where easy to install and seem to be made of quality material. They have been installed for about 6 months with no issues. I did fill them with dielectric grease and taped them, as I don't want to have to figure out where something went wrong in my landscape lighting.

does the job but cost a lot

I got these because another style of connector I’d used, for which a single connector bridges the connections beoween two cables proved unreliable, giving intermittent connection. When I substituted these, the intermittency problem was solved. They are easy to install.

Instructions are near useless. The wire that fits in the long section is connected differently to the wire you are tapping in to. You have to strip enough insulation to allow the copper to get trapped between the plug and the post inside. Forget about the insulation. It doesn't factor in. It is only the copper that effects the connection.
