Amazon is "woke". Fuck Amazon.
Used these for installing remote lock, so far so good - works well and was an easy install
Nice.
silly but i use to ponder on how far the wire should go in after stripping,thanks for that little simple tip/answer👍👍😄
I just got these, thanks for the video.
Nice! Thanks for watching!
Thanks. Great video. You explained it perfectly for me.
Glad to hear, thanks for watching!
Very informative presentation. Thank you!
Glad to hear, thanks for watching!
Thanks for this video on T taps.
Thanks for watching!
You just saved my life dude… thanks
Glad to hear, thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for watching!
Great video. Thanks
Glad to hear, thanks for watching!
Thank you soo much I been trying to fig this thing out.
Glad I was able to help!
Thanks bud. Now I just gotta reduce 4 wires down into 1 to use this properly lol
Nice :)
Thanks for the video, exactly what I was looking for to learn how to do it before I buy some 👍
Glad it helped!
When you measure resistance, you dont touch both leads with your bare hand as your reading will include your body resistance in parallel
Thanks for the info!
Learn something new everyday day. Thank you
I wonder if the 18-22 awg taps would work on 24 gauge wire?
Hi. Will it cut some of the stranded core wire inside the clamp?
Lol, by you holding the leads with your bare hands, you're reading your bodies resistance.
Thanks for the video! May I ask whether we can mix them? So to connect a 22AWG wire to a 16AWG one? Use for example a red t-tap with a blue mala spade connector?
Yes you can
The male/female spade connectors are all the same size. The main/tap connectors have the different size channels to sit the wire 12-24 etc.
Is grounding a wire needed when what you’re trying to apply it with comes with a red and black wire, for example Tacoma grill lights, I have a harness wired up but would like to know if grounding is necessary and how to do so in correlation to the way you did this.
I haven't done any vehicle wiring so not a good person to ask, but generally speaking, the red wire should connect to positive side of the battery and the black wire to the negative side of the battery in some way. Negative side of the battery should be connected to the vehicle frame which I believe is called chassis ground as far as the electronics goes. These connectors may let you tap into other wires but I'd be careful that nothing gets messed up in the process. Hopefully there's DIY videos/websites for that exact project.
Ahh, wire taps! Perfect for when Wagos are too easy for you
All I know is that they have made aftermarket electronics installations on my car possible for me without having to pay someone...!
Hi there, I have a question. Can I use those connectors for outdoor projects, like landscaping?. Thanks in advance
I wouldn't think so, they don't seem to be watertight. You'd probably have to search for outdoor connectors specifically.
here for my camry trunk bar lol, didn’t want to splice my wires i can use the t taps
Nice.
Awww, I went to look for your crimping tool in the description, but couldn’t find a link. Do you have an Amazon associate link for the crimping tool too? Thanks! :)
Sure thing, just generated this affiliate link amzn.to/39FVtAL Thanks!
t tap is water tap faces left
“noble”
If I t-tap positive to positive and negative to negative, will it be a complete circuit or does the ground still need to be grounded somewhere else?
When it comes to batteries, you just want them to have the same voltage (no more than 0.1V different) when you connect them together. And then usually the negative side of the batteries is considered the 0V reference point ground as far as any circuit attached to that battery bank is concerned.
So when connecting the first part of the T-tap connector I don’t I have to strip the plastic off the wire right to get a good connection? I thought it might mess with the connection
Not suppose to have to strip off the insulation. I haven't done any serious testing to see how good of a connection it makes yet.
That's the tap wire(the wire is wiggle worm on the left and the right it has a sharp bend on it on the aka bent coat hanger which has 7 end of it it's the same wire thats attaches the plastic egg which leads to the tree in the park aka Z tree. Inam
Does the straight end of the wire get cut when the connecter is clamped down on it?
I think that it just gets pinched. I don't know for certain what exactly happens to it though.
Aren’t you supposed to strip the wire before clamping on T Connector?
@@MsRotorwings no
Hi is it ok to connect more then one t tap connector to a wire?
I would think so, as long as you don't use too much current.
Are those ok for car inside use 12v ??
I don't work on cars, so I don't know. I also haven't used these much where I have noticed their potential weaknesses. I'd see what people that work on cars are using.
Are these ok for outdoor connections?!
I don't think so.
Can I connect with 230 volt ,in distribution line
I don't think these are safe for any high voltage.
Anyway to make those permanent? As in unable to be unplugged?
I don't think so. But, spade connectors are usually tough to get off. So, it's probably a solid connection for as long as you want.
@@Electronzap mine must be faulty because they slip off really easily. Wish you could crimp the T connection just like the regular crimps.
That sucks. I just found these amzn.to/2Xqsx5Y They are a lot more expensive but claim to be more reliable and hold 2 wires instead of 1. I don't see any for other wire sizes but I didn't look much.

Can you mix and match the colors to step up/down?
I'm sure you probably could as long as you don't exceed the voltage/wattage of any particular point.
First of all these are not designed for solid wire, second of all measuring resistance on a wire with no current flowing doesn’t tell you anything, you need to measure voltage drop
Thanks for the info!
how can you tell quality spade connectors from the bad ones??
I don't know. I've never heard that there were bad ones and I almost never play around with them. I read customer reviews and if complaints about a cheaper product seem legitimate, I try to figure out if it is still good enough for the price, or if I would rather buy a more expensive brand with better reviews.
What is the model of that crimping tool, please?
Item description on Amazon is ... Hilitchi Professional Insulated Wire Terminals Connectors Ratcheting Crimper Tool for 22-10AWG , I got it at amzn.to/2RKsWk9 which is an affiliate link ad.
can we use this for 220volts A.C.?
I don't think they can handle anywhere close to that voltage.
I wanted to add a 2nd horn to my car, which only has 1 horn, already have the 2nd horn, the connector and about a foot of wire
I'm sorry but those connectors that tap into a wire or absolutely garbage my friend and I advise all people to avoid them like the plague
Posi-Taps are better.
Thanks for the video. But really... a seven minutes video when it should only take 15 seconds to show how the thing works.
Thanks for the input!
Do not by any means use these crappy T connectors.
These are some of the worst connectors available, not only are they not practical because of how large the connector is but it's also the least amount of surface area that you could provide for your connection.
Thanks for the tip!
100% textbook wrong how you measured. You are never never supposed to measure with your hands. You basically measured the resistance in your body.
NOT 0.4 ohms, that is your probes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
