All,
After working on finding an issue with one of my lights (12 V ) that was no longer working. I was able to trace the issue back to a power tap ( the kind that you crimp over a wire and it breaks the insulation to make contact to the feeder wire and the tap wire. It appears that this connector had vibrated lose or was not installed correctly ( since my rig is a 2010 - I'm going with vibration).
SO my question is - does everyone use the same old wire taps that have been around for years or is anyone using the product from Posi-Lock?

I wanted to find out if anyone is using these and where you got them. I have used then once - they came with a set of lights I purchased for my Motorcycle and were impressive given that there was no way I could have gotten a crimping tool into the space where I needed to tap into... they claim to be great in high vibration environments, automotive, Motorcycles... RVs ...
Just looking for feed back and where you purchased them. Oh and they also have a water proof version of some of the connectors
