Tim,

I've used them on a buddy truck.  He was trying to add in a switch and an
additional aux. power outlet, ie. cigarette lighter.  Worked 
well.  At least my buddy
hasn't been back for me to fix it in 2 yrs.

I assume that if it is designed to connect 2 18gauge wires, that it 
can handle the
current that an 18gauge wire can handle.  You can get kits for many 
different sizes
of wire.  They are color coded for the wire size, and therefore, I 
assume, it's
current carrying capacity.  I don't see anything that actually gives 
a current rating
for them.

John
