So I collected the connectors today to try them out ... a bit riddiculous at just under R4 per connector for a 2 way ... hey it is what it is.
The 1 in 1 out are around R3.50 each and the 2 in and 1 out are R3.90 each ... why buy the 1 in 1 out ...bit of a no brainer to just buy the 2 in 1 out for 40 cents more.
As with everything they have pros and cons
Pros ... quick and easy to install ... no screwits and sticky tape ... no connectors screws which can come loose etc etc.
They work like a bomb on solid wires like 1.5 mm twin+E
Cons ... They dont work so well with 1.5 mm house wire and secondly you need to make sure you dont force then into a tight spaces like a junction box in a slab ... the spring loaded connection could come loose. They are slightly bigger than the Wago 2 way connector ... but a little cheaper.
