David,
OK, I guess there are scotchlok connectors that
do other things than join into a wire in a "T"
fashion. But it still doesn't explain to me the
distinction being made in the manual. Any
comments would apply to all insulation displacing
connectors, not just the "T" ones, I would
think. So I guess I'm still confused. There are
already plenty of flame wars out there about
using these for alarm and stereo
installations. I was hoping not to start another
one. I would like to understand the terminology,
though. BTW, there are also these things called
posi-locks that some claim are better. Check out: www.posi-lock.com.
