    Nice video. Never make fun of Chinese manufacturing. They pretty much own the market in terminal blocks which is what these are, minus the screws. If they set their minds on something they can dominate it by having prices that are 1/4 of the competition. If they get those UL listed or european approved they will compete.

    I got some of these "not fake wago, fake wago" when I seen Big Clive review them. They were exactly the shape I wanted and they were only going in quick hobby projects anyway. :D Good to see all the other types. I find the 3 individual wires to 3 individual wires to be my common use-case. Not once have I wanted to connect 1 wire to (4?) others. Maybe that is just me.

    These actually seem quite well designed and made. A current test would have been very informative since that is the area where weaknesses in manufacture etc. would most likely have shown but so far I have not seen anything that would put me off using them - at least within my own properties. I think we need a follow-up test on these John.

    Hi John, I find your dry humour so funny. You are about the only person that makes me laugh. Particularly the video on the Southern Electricity book. Keep them coming I love your videos. Technically brilliant and so funny.

    I got some with Brown, Blue, Yellow, levers, 3 way straight thru, they are ideal for making quick test leads for mains powering equipment under test, they work quickly for temporary connections and insulate well enough...

    i love these pass thro not wago wagos. very very handy when troubleshooting auto-electrical stuff, i woutldnt trust one in a wall, but id certainly use them for low current lighting and absolutely love them for my work (all low voltage stuff) and for prototyping my gadgets (again low voltage stuff) .. bought a load after mikeelectricstuff video on them.

    I don't use these for high currents, but for the usual lighting circuits they are fine. They sure beat the crappy US wire nuts that are pure junk.

    So - well made, fit for purpose connectors, capable of handling mains voltage. I'll use them with confidence and not be put off by your (anti) Chinesium bias.

    Very useful, thanks. I think I would use them in off grid applications, projects/development ... I will get some and see how/when they come in useful.

    looking forward to seeing a video of those under load. you should test the resistance as that will cause heating up. also maybe with a bit of moisture over time the resistance might change.

    I used one in my car to fit the radio cassette player. Spot on!

    Headphone people may want to remove them. People who spent the 90's in the ministry of sound might need to turn the volume up.

    I would have liked to see current pass through test with those connectors.

    I love those cheap lever connectors for joining 2 wires. I use em for e bikes.
