CGOLDENWALL Hydraulic Crimping Tools 10T 4-70m㎡ with Hexagon Steel 9 Dies for Copper and Aluminum Terminal Lugs Battery Wire Crimping, 2 Pairs of Sealing Rings Included

Ok

I just got this along with a box of cheap lugs, to use it on my battery system.I was disappointed to find out that the lugs didn't get crimped properly and cable just slid out, i was considering returning it, as I've found a lot of users had similar experience.However from my time working as electrician on industrial installations, I remembered the lugs being a lot thicker than the ones I got.So I'm ordering a set of proper lugs and will update my review accordingly.I think the lugs people get are too thinwalled and that's why they don't get crimped properly.Using smaller die works but it's better to crimp down partially with proper die and then crimp fully with smaller die.

As stated in other review the dies aren’t the right size, crimping 10mm and the cable just pulled straight out, no matter what I tried.Even when fully tinned, there was too much slack, I have to solder the whole crimp, completely voiding the purpose of a crimp.
