Yeah, I always tape my wire nuts too.

If I am not mistaken, the make plugs and switches with the Wago system too. Beats making loops in the wires.
There is a guy on youtube called How To Home. He does a thorough job of explaining them. His channel is pretty good. I learned a lot from him.

For smaller stranded wires use a ferrule for a better connection and keeps the smaller wires from pulling out they come in different sizes

Wago ferrule

I had a hard enough time getting them to buy me wire nuts.

I’m still not sold on them. And I have a coffee can of wire nuts. But like 1967GOAT I twist wires together before applying the wire nut, like my dad taught me.
