Really depnds on what op wants them for. I wouldnt suggest getting them and running multiple runs of 1/0 guage to them. But if its just to connect one or 2 small guage wires, then it works well.

I will say, when i do my next install ill get a differnt terminal, only because i will need it though.

i guess your right.

i would trust them with small wire but anything big is out of the question.

then you have the possibility of stripping the heads.

they will also loosen from vibrations over time.

just seems after i have used a few different ones i cringe at just the sight of them now...

the main reason i started this thread was because you cant see the other side of it from the picture. I just wanted to make sure they weren't a piece of shit.
