I'm not an electrical engineer, and I'm sure if I were one, then I'd be able to nitpick this product quite a bit. For a weekend warrior like me, who's working on his own cars, this crimper is pretty good. For fully insulated adhesive heat shrink push-on terminals, this tool's die does a good job of getting a solid crimp without damaging the insulation. For your normal uninsulated terminals that you'd use in a relay, the crimper does the main crimp and the strain relief crimp at the same time, and the ends curl around properly. I feel good about the quality of the crimps.
I would ding one star because of how long it takes to change out the dies. It would be sweet if there was some kind of quick disconnect setup for that. However, I'd just add a star right back because this thing cost me $36.99 instead of $200+. I'd also ding a star for not being able to do mil-spec connectors, but then...it was $36.99.
