Much better crimps out of the ratchet style tools. I'm trying to build up a nice selection of the heat shrink terminals, check them out if you haven't already seen them, the finished job ends up stronger, neater smaller and probably a bit more corrosion resistant.

I have more or less the same tool under a different brand - it travels with me everywhere, love it to bits. As you say, the ratchet crimpers are better for that part of the operation but I don't tend to use crimp connectors - it's still old school here with solder on connectors!!! Bargain price, I think mine were about double that but even then I thought I was doing ok because a colleague had just got some with a posh brand name for even more money.

Good video mate. Looks like it’s up to the task

Those look surprisingly good for the price! 👍 👍

This clamp - pliers looks very interesting. I have a very old one, which when I see this one, makes me think that I should change it

Bought a similar device from Amazon to your Lidl tool but no crimping connectors, so very useful replacing 17 recessed 12v halogens with mains GU10s. Looks similar tool though didn't get a close up of yours, mine also has the cable stopper by the jaws but cost about £14

Hi, great video. Thank you-I was looking at this the other day in Lidl and wondering if the tool would be any good for doing bicycle inner and outer cable cutting and crimping 😅

Hi Benedict are any of your crimpers able to crimp ferrules? Thanks for the video.
