TYUMEN 12 Pcs 2 Pin 2 Way Universal Compact No-Wire-Stripping Toolless Spring Wire Connectors, Quick Splice Universal Wire Wiring Connector for AWG 2024

Not recommending this

I worked far too long to try to get these to work with a 26 AWG wire, finally gave up. Then when I tried them with 22 AWG wire, connecting them was a snap! They are a tad flimsy to connect, just have to be careful.

Likes: - connects well not too hard or too easy to disconnect - feels like a solid connection, using pliers to gently buy thoroughly snap closed. - universal, no odd-man-out: all the same gender - low profile but big enough to grasp Dislikes: - instructions were tough - didn't see where you could just insert unstripped wire - the snapping together by hand is a bit of a joke, gentle plier work solve this I used these to run a router power line from my network rack to it's central mounting place and it works just fine. I did strip and double up the 22ga wire and it locked firmly. I'll use these for other applications like 3d printer, etc. Like a lot of things on AMZ lately, the instructions are more harmful than useful. Just be prepared to try a few of these, they ARE reusable (if you're competent) and will make a good connection WITHIN THEIR SPECS. UPDATE: These work well for replacing garage door sensors where they buried the wire in the walls. they make a neat, secure connection. All of these that are in use work as I'd hoped and now I'm ordering more.

So using these with 22awg stranded. Listed to work with 20-24, so s/b g2g. First one I used, used my finger nail to lift the clamping clear cover, and the nub that locks it down , broke off, so the clamping clear cover wont stay snapped shut. Moved on to another and was very careful to use a tiny screw driver to be sure to lift the lip away from the nub, than up. Used two to make a connection, and neither would make a connection that was not intermittent. Tried several times.. nope, and the clamping clear cover needed some pressure from pliers to get it down and lock onto the nub, which it did. Just couldn't get it to happen. I've used all sorts of IDC (insulation displacement connectors) , and these just didn't work. I like the idea, the size and such, really wanted them to work for these small connections.. But nope, big waste of nine bux.

Worked decent enough for what I needed. Don't forget that you get what you pay for and being as inexpensive as they are, they do feel pretty flimsy and cheap. Add to use some pliers and really clamp down on the wires for a contact to be made. Remember that these are also not waterproof. They can be a little finicky to get two of them connected together but with some patients they work just fine.

Good- Using their brand 18 AWG wire, slide it in and I used pliers to close it up. VERY easy and quick. No stripping Small size for projects with space constraints. Basically takes up no more room than the 18 AWG wire itself Universal, you can't end up with more males or females, they are universal. Any two plug into each other Snap together tight, holds together well Bad Not much really, should use their silicone wire if 18 awg is used, they say. It's nice wire with reasonably tough yet flexible insulation and pricing is ok. Testing of capacity using their 18 AWG silicone wires and DC bench supply with dummy load. Cut four 2" each pieces of wire and inserted them into two of their connectors (universal connectors, either can act as female or male) 15A load (under 5 min connect time) - Can take it, connector and wires run hot but no damage over short periods (5% voltage drop over the pair). 10A (rated amps) - runs hot but can finger pinch the connector tight indefinitely (3% voltage drop) 8A - runs warm, you know it's loaded down and if you didn't know it was ok, might be concerning 6A - runs slightly warm (2.5% voltage loss) but feels normal

I used this Connectors in a motorcycle to make a home made universal connector capable of been unplug and plug back with a replacement as need it. My cable were o the thick side but it says it is supported. The connector didn't wanted to close all the way. They click when you close it and tge clear part locks in. I try forcing it to lock but it would work. So I install it and use shrink covers to make sure this locking part will not come undone while driving. I will recommend the connector but don't use the thicker gage it says it can use go one below.

Used as a quick snap connector for mobile speakers. The part that the wires connected didn’t make good enough contact. I ended up striping the wires and shoving them in that way. When snapping the two sides together, they didn’t snap well had to wiggle and force the pieces together. They didn’t want to come apart after snapped together, & the wires ended up pulling out of them.

Very cheaply made, clip broke on one the first time installing. Followed all instructions plus I have used other wire connectors in the past and never had issues like this. I will not buy this item again
