I wish I would have had these a long time ago! They are very easy to use when you’re in tight spaces (which usually happens most of the time!) and don’t have room for a tool. I will always have these in my toolbox!

The assortment doesn't have quite enough of everything in there but it does give you a good sampling.I do quite a bit of automotive lighting upgrades, and for critical life-safety equipment like regulated motor vehicle lighting, it does not pay to get the cheap "fold and crimp" type of connectors. These are watertight, almost foolproof to understand and use, and best yet, are reusable.

I was adding a light bar to my truck and was needing to splice into some existing connectors behind the dash and these fit the bill perfectly. Just follow the instructions - easy to use and worked both times I used them. Definitely would purchase again.

Handy set of connectors; 3 different sizes; Coded Yellow,blue & red.Look very easy to use. No tools required(well maybe wire stripper) but that's it.Would be handy in Emergencies.🏁😃.

These couldn't be easier to use. Super simple. Super effective. Easy to install and a snap to remove without leaving damage to the harness (you just cover the small hole it made with crazy glue and your good to go).Would definitely recommend.

I used the smallest ones for 20-22AWG wires to tap into a nearby push button switch in my 2004 4runner. Needed the positive and negative wires for lighting up new switches that I was installing for off-road lights. The positive tap works awesome.I accidentally dropped one of the posi-tap ends into my exposed center console, so I couldn't complete the job for the negative wire. Tried using the next biggest connector 18AWG posi-tap, but the needle won't line up correctly on the tiny wire; no connection. There were only two 20-22AWG taps in the package. I went ahead and butt-spliced my wires since I didn't have any other taps.I'm getting more of these for future projects. They make adding a connection so much easier. Wish I had seen these before I cut the pig-tails off my fog light wiring.They are pricier than other taps, but felt easier to work with.

perfect variety pack, i only needed 1 blue and 1 yellow. these little guys helped me splice a backup camera to the reverse and ground wire on the factory trailer harness of my dad's pickup (96 dodge ram 1500, reverse is 16ga purple wire with black stripe, ground is 12ga black, in case that helps anyone). dreaded trying to strip a wire in the middle and somehow securely intertwine stranded wire onto it; these things make it simple for those of us with minimal electrical skills. i didnt trust the quick splice t taps that came with the backup camera and read somewhere thats its not an issue of if it will fail, its an issue of when it will fail; positaps are said to produce a more reliable connection. dabbed some dielectric grease around the positap openings and wrapped with electrical tape, not sure if it will help prevent corrosion/contamination but cant hurt, worked on the first try, good stuff!

These are the best taps I've used so far. The tap itself is minimally intrusive and does not cause much wire damage, if any to the circuit being tapped. Since the tap goes through the center it makes a positive connection with no issues of unpierced insulation causing an open circuit condition.These taps have a narrow range of wires gauges which can be used for each size and combining wire sizes will make it difficult to install the tap particularly in a situation where you are tapping a smaller gauge wire with a larger one.These taps are difficult to conceal due to theme making a right angle connection.Overall this is a great product which I will be stocking at my shop.

I used these to install a remote starter on a vehicle. I used the large yellow to tap a larger Power wire 10 or 12guage to supply Power to the RS which worked well and I used the blue and red ones for smaller gauge wires to include ingnition, parking light and door pin wires. I do like how they penetrate the wires and are less aggressive than the “fold-over” style taps. All connections worked well except one and that was the data connection between the RS and the SKIM module. I ended up removing the tap and going with the traditional “poke and wrap” copper to copper connection. For some reason even though the posi-tap provided a good connection (I tested continuity), I think the data connection did not like the dissimilar metal. The posi-taps otherwise seem to work well and are easy to use...I don’t think they will come Unscrewed over time given the design but a little tape wrap doesn’t hurt. Would be nice if they provided the current/amperage ratings for each size for easy reference. A little pricey but if you are looking for something that is less damaging, these are a nice option to have in the tool box.

These taps make any ham-fisted DIYer feel like a fully-licensed MacGuyver. In all seriousness, I've used them in a couple of applications installing auxiliary lighting on the bike, and they've been 100% easy and effective.My only wish is that they available in the Canadian Tire!
