I assume that "electronics projects" means they will only handle low-voltage?

I can't tell the size of them, but just making sure you aren't going to join up mains voltage wires with those...

The cheap Wago clones are mostly fine, surprisingly.
Mains voltage should be fine but I would think thrice before using them for permanent house wiring.

I've been using them a lot already, mostly for low-voltage stuff but also for mains voltage (one or two lamps), they're fine.
they're so simple there's not much that can go wrong with them that wouldn't immediately be obvious.

This. I'm using knock-off wago connectors I got from Ali for lighting. A lot of the knock-offs have configurations wago themselves don't sell. LED lighting means nearly everything in your lighting circuits are massively overspecced since they were originally designed for multiple filament bulbs at 100W or more.

I don't have any experience but you might want to check your local Walmart because they've had high-vis stuff on clearance for the past few weeks in sporting goods.

I think the in-store clearance items were mostly things like hunting vests, rather than fully reflective windbreakers like those. Sorry!

that kind of glass bead paint reflective stuff isn't very durable. you have to avoid washing it as much as possible (it will become less effective each time you wash it) but it also becomes less effective when dirty/wet. that type of jacket also isn't hi-viz when it's not dark out.

an alternative option is to use sew-on prismatic reflective strips or something

Also always use lights and don't rely on reflective stuff (although it helps; I'm not saying not to use it). retroreflective stuff is very sensitive to position so with just reflective stuff you can easily get t-boned by a car coming to an intersection 90 degrees from you because they won't be lighting up reflective stuff until its too late.

Knock off Wago connectors are appealing, but I'd only ever use them for wiring stuff in my house (outlets etc), and I couldn't bring myself to trust them

I have that 3m tape on my bikes frame along with front/rear light. And my jacket has reflective strips. Just figure more is more.

If you want to support a good cause buy one from these folks. Most reflective jacket possible. I got a frame bag for my wife and it's shockingly reflective.

I don’t know what those are, but sounds fitting. If anyone ever goes without a good gag gift again it’s their own fault.

I’ll troll back through and find the Star Trek one. I foolishly thought that first batch that I linked would be as crazy as it got!

I did also find a Viking Christmas shirt that said Fa La La La La

But my brain had melted by that point and I didn’t want to keep spamming pictures.

A friend sent over a link to what looked like a proper storefront to a European seller offering a nice raincoat that reeked of an Ali product. I couldn't find it anywhere on Ali, though, so I took the plunge; despite the odd labels and other suspicious details, the thing fits great (without having to adjust for Chinese sizing) and is exactly what I needed.

The same store was advertising an "oversized linen shirt," so I thought, sure, great; my "oversized raincoat" fit perfectly, so I'll get the same size in this shirt, and oh, cobalt blue, my favorite! Well, the thing arrived packaged in one of those translucent zip bags I see with Ali poo poo, and it was neither oversized, nor linen, nor cobalt blue (more a peacock blue). Fucker was cotton-poly stretch and it did not fit. It costs almost as much to ship it back to their return office in Italy than it did to buy the drat thing. Never again. I should have trusted my gut and probably quit while I was ahead.
