Paul & Sven:
It all boils down to $$$$$
The "good ones"; "Backwire" "Spec" are pricier than the el-cheapo's, but IMHO well worth the additional cost. (Receptacles and switches)

Paul:
If yaou look at TG's photo on the top of this thread, our devices look like that; you insert the stripped conductor & tighten the screws, no looping required, although some die hards still loop them.

I gave up trying to send the picture. Maybe someday, time permitting, I'll master the digital camera, CD, and e-mail thing.
