Review on 🔧 Heat Shrink Connector Crimping Tool - Ratcheting Wire Crimper Pliers - Ratchet Terminal Crimper - Wire Crimp Tool by Wirefy by Joe Murphy

Read many reviews about this and other similar devices. They all seem almost identical so I can't tell if it's better to go with the KLEIN version which looks identical but costs twice as much. I've been tempted to spend over $200 on more expensive models (very similar to this one) with removable jaws (I assume you can take those off and put other jaws in since the screws are on it and the other model does). includes with sets of sponges) but I've only used it once in the near future so can't justify the much higher cost. It feels good, the only problem is that it takes a lot of force to crimp. As. The ratchet makes me think I can compress easily and it compresses slowly so I might have to compress a couple of times to squeeze it fully. Not so. I had to press VERY hard with both hands, and I'm a big guy. I could do it with one hand too, but it's hard as hell. As some other reviewers have said, you literally have to crimp it all the way for it to come out. If you partially crimp, it won't come out. Therefore, you have to put a lot of effort to crimp it to the end.
