Did 3 pairs of alligator jumpers yesterday and only half of them went on that easy. Sometimes it can be a chore to get the wire through the hole. I also placed a small washer to help hold wire on. Works like a charm.
Thanks for the feedback! Yes, they're kind of difficult. I think I had to try several times on this video to get it right. But works great once it's all connected! Take Care
They should come with the damn washer
Actually I was searching this to show my buddies what a great electrician I am. 🤣🤣🤣
lol nice!
glad to be of service! more information on the website :)
simple, easy to understand, and helped me a lot. Thanks!!
Simple to follow and understand! Thank you!
That's for this video. I'm use to the old school clips which were called roach clips back in my day. lol
haha! I usually need about a day or two to reply to most comments. The size of wire depends on your application. If it is a low voltage circuit, you can typically get away with 20 or 18 gauge speaker cable. If you need a higher voltage circuit, then 14-12 gauge is probably better. Most hard ware stores will have a wide selection of wire sizes and lengths. Also, they should have at least one or two different styles of alligator clips. Best of luck!
very good video
Helpful, thank you.
yea they have clamps of all sizes, you'd basically be looking for replacement jumper cable clamps.
I am not sure who to blame for this method. You or the manufacturer. Maybe if you used a ring terminal it would have looked better.
If you don't have any hardware stores by you, then yes, you can usually substitute any type of copper wire
awesome! Glad I could help :)
just clearing out my inbox, looks like i forgot to reply, SORRY! It's not a problem if they don't have screws, most will have a "crimp" attachment so you just have to bend the metal down to hold the wire in place. All you need is a firm metal/electrical attachment and they'll work fine
Thank you!
If my alligator clip gets too dry and the plastic around it tends to crack,is there anything i can do to make the plastic return to it's normal elasticity or at least less dry? Thanks if someone read this :)
Nah, I haven't really found a solution to that... seems like they all wear out with time. Sometimes silicone (used in car detailing) can be used to keep certain types of plastics and rubbers in relatively good condition.
Bhaiya dosere patle wire laga sakate hai kya
Thanks man you are the best
Thank you, you helped me a lot.
great that what I needed to know
do they have them for 220v i want to connect my generator to my well pump wires rather than take the wire out of the sercet and wire nut them tuvm.
i dont have any wire and i cant buy any.
Can i find the wire for alligator clips inside any kind of cable or charging cable?
please help i have to do this its due tomorrow.
I would prefer to solder the wire because It would be more reliable than using a screw
Can you do a tutorial on MOTOMASTER alligator clips 5A from Canadian tire
can these be crimped also to help hold the wire ?
thx for the video and i need to ask anyone know that. what is the max volt and A i can do for this and thx
What if the alligator clips don't have screws?
ya gotta soder it
you're welcome!
I know nothing about anything having to do with stuff like this cause I'm stupid lol, could someone tell me exactly what you would use these for? I found some of the original Mueller ones and was wondering what they were for. Like to test a battery? To ground something you're working on? I'm stupid and curious lol
Just used for jumper wires
you didn't crimp the alligator clip at the neck- any pull will be on the terminal on the clip.
I just bought several clips exactly like you have off mouser.com and they didn't come with the screws. What screw size do they use?
Hello Andrew! (I'm using my other account) Honestly, I'm not totally sure. The screws aren't really necessary, it just ensures a tight grip. I had used non-screw terminal clips for years without a problem. You can use the frayed copper wire and wind it multiple times for a firm attachment. Otherwise, there should be prongs on the clips that you can bend onto the wire to help secure. Otherwise, if you want to hunt down screws. Most hardware stores have a "machine bolt" sizing chart which would help facilitate screw sizing. Hope that helps, take care!
It’s so hard to connect them together
Thanks
thanks allo. u really hepled
I bought 10 pack alligator clip 5 wire not conduct 5 wire conduct means 5 broken when I bought it on a store not on ebay or amazon
