What are those little orange insulators on your small wires, and why do you use them?
Weidmuller crimps, available here:

They also have 16 and 18 AWG version. We bought some last year at the suggestion of our electrical mentor. They're great for putting stranded wires in the Weidmuller connectors and make it really easy to tell that your wires are fully seated.
