How to Use Quick Splice Connectors & When to Avoid Them

Here's how to use quick splice connectors to add a wire connection quickly and easily! Also, they may not always be the best option for joining wires together! This connector is sometimes called a vampire connector since they "bite" into the wire and draw power from a power source. These solderless wire connectors may provide a quick connection, but are sometimes more trouble than they are worth. A soldered connection typically provides a better connection and longer service life than a wire tap, splicer, or runtap.
