I am going to be doing a lot of wiring over the next couple of months, and would like to get a ratcheting crimper to make things a little easier. It will just be for personal use, so I don't really want to spend $500, but I don't want a POS that does crappy crimps either. It will be used exclusively for non-insulated terminals, mostly 14-20 gauge wire but occasionally 12g. I have found these:
3M TR-490 ($200) :http://solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/3...gl527H63V45Bbl
Greenlee 45505 ($75): http://www.amazon.com/Greenlee-45505.../dp/B001HWB2KC
I know the 3M is pretty good, but has anyone used the Greenlee? Any other options out there?
Thanks!
