Review on πŸ”Œ Hilitchi Insulated Disconnects Terminals Connector: Secure and Reliable Electrical Terminal Connections by Michael Jenkins

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Crimping with good tools will not work. Not recommended.

These terminals come in a nice divided box to keep everything organised. Unfortunately, when using quality crimping tools designed for insulated terminals ($20 Titanium Crimps and $60 Astro Crimps), the terminals easily slipped off the wires. Even after adjusting each crimping tool for the tightest crimp, the terminals separated from the wire with a slight tug. Crushing the terminal with wire cutters resulted in a secure fit, but I wouldn't want to do my wiring that way. After trying dozens of creams, I happily threw them in the trash to pick them up from the store. FWIW, YMMV.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Ugly Packaging
