Re: Screw Wire Connector

If you want a secure way to use that terminals it would be more complicated then twisting and soldering. For the most secure yet primitive Pete way of using it is.

1. grind of the plastic not surrounding the metal which in most terminals that makes the rest fall off.

2. Put the wires in and do a quick crimp to hold the wires in place.

3. solder strengthen so it doesn't need to be screwed. (Which is where it becomes more useful to just solder.
