full disclosure/weird story: I bought a different Wimitools connector kit that was prominently labeled "Wago", but that listing (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CQ6YVTLJ/) has since been scrubbed of all uses of the word "Wago". I contacted them and they confirmed that the connectors are Wagos (they said "we are just repackaging"), so I don't know why they removed the brand name from the listing. There is one review on that listing that claimed the connectors were not Wagos (based on a 3% size difference?), so perhaps they wanted to start a new listing and hope for better reviews. I can't tell a difference between the ones from that pack and other Wagos I've purchased from other sellers. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
1 - Fail and cause the field device to stop working, work intermittently, or damage the field device.
2 - Fail and trip a breaker.
3 - Fail and cause a fire.
I'm not going to say "knock-off or unlisted electrical connectors will cause your home to catch fire with near certainty" - but there is a chance.
With how aggressive insurers are becoming as they experience significant financial losses, installing unlisted (non UL/CE) hardware could become more risky than the cost savings when you consider the chance of a claim denial after State Farm buys your Amazon purchase history.
A thought like that previously would only come to somebody wearing a tinfoil hat, but with how quickly computing is moving there's no guessing where we'll end up.

That said, I do have some of the larger versions for 10AWG wire. Never know when you might need a few.

Edit: sorry that's the price for push-in style not the ones with levers. Home depot sells both styles tho. Thanks for catching that sxg6.
But this is a high-risk situation. Counterfeits are extremely common on scAmazon due to inventory commingling, and counterfeit mains electrical products have a very real risk of catastrophic failure -- possibly leading to fire.
This is not something where you should pinch pennies looking for a bargain. Buy from a reputable source that does not have a risk of fakes.

Good god people, you're risking your and your family's lives over what, a dime or nickel a unit, tops? It's been shown hundreds upon hundreds of times china doesn't give a tinker's damn if they sell defective, dangerous shit.
I'm all for getting deal, but this is sketch as f*ck.

Then again we are allowed to use 40amp 8 awg wire nuts which is scary as hell.
Then we can get into a fight with the pre twisters vs the "under no circumstance should you pretwist"

In all seriousness, I got into an electrical box one time where the hot feeder wire was barely long enough to get into that box, I have no idea how the electrician managed to connect it to the back of that outlet. There was no way I was getting a wire nut on there with a pigtail so I would have some play, but using a push in type connector made that job a snap. I absolutely see problem sets that they do solve. Still not 100% on them, however. I don't use them in situations where I don't need them but I certainly needed one there!
'In a very obnoxious voice' "Errrrr back in my day boy I would've fired you if you showed up on my job site with those toys. You should have soldered those two ends together like a real man, boy"
