Finally got the guts to use a Wago lever nut on a main lighting circuit

I was staring at a junction box with a mess of 12-gauge wires and had to pick between wire nuts or trying those lever connectors everyone talks about. Went with the Wago 221s and it was so much faster and cleaner, no more twisting my wrist into a cramp. Anyone else make the switch for bigger branch circuits or do you stick with the old way?

Switched years ago, never looked back.

Man, my buddy was the same way. He swore by wire nuts until he had to redo his whole basement lighting and his hands were killing him. I showed him a video like cole356 mentioned and he finally caved. Said the Wagos were a total game changer for those thick wires, he could actually see the connection was solid. Now he acts like he invented them.
