Finally gave in and tried the Wago lever nuts I've been ignoring for years

Been doing resi work for a decade and always used wire nuts, but a buddy at the supply house dared me to try Wagos on a service panel swap last week in Denver. Honestly way faster for landing neutrals together and I'm kinda mad about it - anyone else stubbornly stuck on the old way and finally switched?

My first time using them I had them all clicked together before I realized I forgot the damn wire in the back of the box. Had to pop them all back open and start over like a total clown. Still faster than twisting wire nuts though, and my fingers didn't hate me the next day. I'll probably keep using them for neutrals and call it a win.

Gave them a shot on a bathroom rewire last month and now I literally won't touch wire nuts for neutral bundles. They made landing all those grounds and neutrals in a tight box SO much easier, no more fighting with twisted wires. I still keep Marrettes around for switches and outlets though, old habits die hard I guess.
