3528 2 Pin 8mm LED Strip Connectors - DIY Strip to Wire Quick Connection for 12v 24v Single Color Led Strips Lights (Pack of 10)

Does exactly what they are supposed to do

They were quite fiddly to use and had a few goes to finally get them to make a connection

Helluva

Extremely difficult to connect properly. Temperamental when connected and hard to open if you need to reconnect.Avoid if possible.

Great

It's very difficult to star rate these. When they work, they seem to be fine, but they don't always work. Fitting problems keep life interesting, e.g. peel LED backing strip away before inserting it into connector. Find that strip, once liberated from its backing, will stick to anything except the connector. ONCE CONNECTOR IS CLOSED IT IS ONE HELL OF A JOB TO REOPEN IT - so, one chance only to get it right. E.g again: inserting cables into cable side of connector: no need to strip insulation? The plan is for the connector to pierce the cable insulation when you close it. Sometimes, it does.I am using these, for under cupboard strip lighting. Are they better than soldering? In terms of frustration, probably no. A good idea, cheaply delivered.

These didn’t do the job required. They are like other reviews state fiddly, the pins inside connectors don’t line up with metal on COB led so you get a lot of flickering. Not worth the money or effort. We’ve had to pay for installation and having someone solder the led connections to light the bookcase.

The connection is unreliable - most of the clamped joints have failed in a fairly short time and were re-done with a soldered joint
