Review on ๐Ÿ”ง Efficiently Assemble Your RENOGY Solar Panels with this Connector Assembly Tool by Jason Hill

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Will not fit all MC4 solar cable connectors sold by Revain

I recently purchased 2 sets of MC4 solar extension cables from Revain. On the same page as the cables, the "Frequently Bought Together" section featured these Renogy MC4 tools. It seemed like a good idea to me. I recently bought a generator and solar panel. This is my first experience with solar panels so I assumed the connectors should be a standard size. Wrong guess. The Renogy tools don't fit the connectors on the cables I bought. I gave the tools 3 stars because they look like hard plastic tools that should work fine if they fit. Maybe they should only be sold for Renogy products. Human error on non-Renogy solar cable webpage is a problem, not a product. So I blindly believed if they were sold together they should match. Another wrong assumption. In any case, the buyer should be careful.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • not reliable
