Review on 🔧 Eowpower IDC Crimp Tool: Perfect for Flat Ribbon Cable and IDC Connectors - Efficient and Reliable by Derek Bates

This might be the worst tool I have ever bought. I've seen a dozen or more vendors promoting this tool and every one of them reportedly had high ratings. The tool is held together with cheap rivets that fall out. There are no levers, so you have to push so hard your wrists hurt. Rubber and plastic handles twist and slip off when squeezed. I tried connecting multiple 34-pin and 50-pin IDC connectors, but none of them worked. The 50-pin connector doesn't even fit the tool. Incorrect turntable angle when attempting to crimp large connectors. I gave up and used a small vise which worked much better. I'm sending it back.
