Interesting push-in wire splice
🕑 Added 2024-01-21 17:39:46 +0000 UTCThe American theme on the packaging is unexpected. This company sells lookalike Wago style connectors, plus this pleasingly minimalist inline splice for joining solid core or stiff-strand wires.
It works quite well, and the use of the copper contact bar does suggest it will have a low resistance.

Ideal is a common US electrical component tool/bits manufacturer. Generally of medium quality. I wish I could find a new one ot the Ideal 7 in 1 screwdriver, with wirenut driver in the handle, that I had years ago. Wore out the screwdriver bits, and haven't found replacements.

Screwfix do an "Installer Kit" that includes these and a selection of Wago style connectors. I've not found the straight through connectors useful for lengthening wires in wall boxes, the side-by-side connectors take up less space and can be 'lost' in a corner of the box. The through connectors need more space for wires to go in and out.

Definitely going to get a couple of packs-a brilliant bit of kit.

Wagner in German makes Vago, but in English, it's Wago; just like Volkswagen is pronounced like it's spelled in English, but would be Folksvagen in German.
