What are your thoughts on backstabbing with Wagos? Should this be a concern for small boxes? I replaced a bunch of dimmers and at times I had to place the wires inside tightly. All are wrapped with electrical wire.

Thank you! I used all 2’s and have larger ones left but didn’t remember there wasn’t a 4 :)

That scares me now. I changed several lights in our house and installed 7 dimmers mostly using the Wagos. I cut and stripped the wires cleanly, made sure the wires were all the way in the Wagos and that the Wagos were closed. What are your thoughts, is it safe?

Can you please explain what backstabbing is?

Yes! Wago is amazing! Question: if I have two wires to join but the only Wagos left are three-slot (or three wires to join and what’s left is a four-slot), is it ok to leave one slot empty but closed?
