Watched a master electrician wire a whole panel without a single wire nut last month

I was helping on a big remodel in a church basement outside Cleveland, and this old timer showed up to swap a 200 amp panel. He used nothing but Wagos for the whole thing, no wire nuts at all. I always thought Wagos were for light fixtures or quick repairs, but watching him land 30 circuits in about 20 minutes changed my mind. Anyone else ditch the twist-on connectors after seeing a pro run with push-ins?

Switched to Wagos on my last service upgrade and never looked back. Way faster and my old hands don't cramp up like with wire nuts.

Watched a master electrician wire a whole panel without a single wire nut last month"? Heck, my old hands cramp up just twisting a soda cap off.
