Counterproductive: wire stripper

This product has a lot of stars, so obviously it works well for other people. In my case it was counterproductive and just plain annoying. Directions consist of pictograms, hardly useful. I uploaded some youtube videos with this or a similar product and it looks like a snap, a snap. For me it always cut the wires too deep and there was no way to adjust it so it didn't. A YouTube video showed a retractable plastic piece on the front; You use the appropriate side for the wire gauge. And yes, I used the correct setting. ow makes the position dependent on the thickness of the cable. He still cut the cable too deep. Instead, I used a razor blade, which was a lot quicker and less frustrating. Even after going back to the beginning many times, I ended up with a much shorter cable than I started, and by this point the blade had become blunt to cut the entire cable (even in the beginning it was flattened by the force required to cut the cable ). some). The black and blue cable crimping tool worked well and without any problems. At least half of the kit worked as promised.

Pros
  • good thing
Cons
  • poorly thought out
