Crutchfield Customer Review

I bought this set for my first headunit install. I spent about 20 minutes using this to connect my wires. The crimp tool was stiff, and took two hands to open for each crimp or cut. It was very hard to get a good crimp because the narrow handles really hurt my hands when I pressed down. I woke up the next morning with a bruise on my palm, and a sore hand. I think I will go to a local store and spend a little more on a tool with better handles. The crimp caps worked just fine, and I had plenty left over for any mistakes or future projects.
Pros:
Crimp Caps
Cons:
Crimp tool

The little crimpers were good, but this tool was stiff and cheap. It took two hands to open it and was not that great to work.
