I'm using the IWISS since a few months and so far i'm very happy with it. The smaller openings are very useful for JST GH - that's at least where i used them for. Thank you for this video - now i've learned that 1.3 is enough to crimp the end of dupont cables :) I've always used 1.6 for the end and then had to compress the ears it created. 1.3 works so much better.

I often pre-crimp using 1.6 or even 1.9 opening then crimp down with 1.3. Please, DO note that Dupont cable crimps must "Embrace" (wrap around) the wire, not dig into it. Therefore a correct dupont wire crimper would be U-shaped and not W

I have used them only twice and both crimps are very good and they are MUCH easier to use than anything I have tried before. I am a 74 year old retired engineer and my eyesight is not as good as when I was much younger, but I have an Optivisor Headband magnifier that works well for me.

I like my SN-02BM still. I have both versions now. The first pliers I ordered have 2 press fit pins in each die, along with a screw. This is specifically the SN-02BM. The "M" is the one with press fit pins. I have a second set of SN-Series pliers that have interchangeable dies. These only have a screw holding the die in place, no press fit pins. I have the SN-02, SN-28B, and SN-48B dies. The SN-02 is similar to these Iwiss pliers. It has a bunch of different sizes and bridges the SN-02B and SN-28B with extra sizes on a long extended die. The die alignment with the tiny crimp sizes of the SN-02 without the press fit pins is bad. I can do the JST 2.0/2.5 crimps all day without any issues using the SN-02BM. The 28B and 48B dies work well for 2.8-6.3mm terminals using the pliers with replaceable dies. I wouldn't recommend the SN-02 in any variety other than the pinned version. It sucks that you won't be able to change dies with it, but it works well. -Jake

Another really great video - thank you!! I thought it was either my technique or the cheap Aliexpress crimps that was causing me troubles. Especially the extra steps needed to straighten the insulation grip before crimping and then straighten the whole crimp afterwards. I just got my IWISS tool and now perfect crimps every time! The Engineer tool is better made and will probably last longer, maybe it crimps high quality parts better too. But for now, the IWISS wins for me hands down.

I was tired of those cheap crimpers(your previous video) and few others. So I decided not to cheap out this time, found PA-09 on amazon, but in the other recommendations/frequently viewed there were those ones from IWISS, checked comments and people say that those do as good as PA-09 but are much cheaper so better. But I ignored it, didn't want to risk that I get another useless crimper, purchased PA-09. Though now I regret this decision a bit, I also have this problem where entire crimp insert is being bent. Also I expected much better tolerances on sides of those jaws, can clearly see gaps when closed.

When I do a pull rudimentary test at home, the terminal is clamped into a vise and I pull until the wire breaks. If the wire pulls out of the crimp it is a fail. If instead the strands of wire break instead, it is a pass.

Hello, I just bought the Engineer PAD-11. It's more expensive, but has interchangeable jaws (~ 25 Euro / jaw). I just used it to crimp JST-ZH (1.5 mm pitch) for a Sensirion SPS30 PM sensor (particulate matter). After a couple of tries and failures I now get 100% succes rate with stranded 28 AWG wire. My first attempts were with ~ 26 AWG, but the housing for the crimps seems to struggle with the larger wire diameter (crimpts were successful, but not as neat as with 28 AWG). Next I will try a JST-SH which is 1 mm pitch for a QWIIC to SPS30 JST-ZH connection. That's going to be more challenging, but the PAD-11 should be able to do it. Great channel BTW!! Yves

How interesting, not the result is expected and I have a few I Iwiss crimpers. I mainly use the Iwiss sn01 (2 bays not 3,) for jst and molex rather than the 28b that most others use and it works beautifully, but does occasionally dog ear the cables plastic part. I also have their anderson power pole crimper and a couple of others, but I never expected them to outperform the Japanese engineer pa09. Kudos where it's due I guess, well done Iwiss and thanks for all your good work in these videos actually testing the tools head to head.

For smaller jobs like MQS 0,2 to 0,5 I purchased a Rennsteig #616 682 3, it has absolutely NOTHING to do with any other tools ou can find for these small connectors. There's no secret, quality tools make a hell of a difference. I will note that this crimper costs over 200 euros (and it's not the most expensive around), so it's not on everyone's priority list !! I find that providing you can afford it, most of those tools will stay with you for years in not a lifetime... and you purchase and change the dies according to the job. - the guy with the Swiss French accent ;)

The 2820M is not available on Amazon at the time I wrote this.

@@AndreasSpiess I heard somebody say that the ratcheting crimpers are harder to work with when it comes to small connectors. Since the dies are big, small pins are difficult to keep still there compared to manual crimpers. I guess I'll go with the manual crimpers.

It's not as much about money as it is about time. A hobbyist can spend an hour crimping cables on a project because it doesn't matter if the project takes an hour longer, the result is the same. If a professional has to spend an hour crimping cables, that's an hour they have to spend paying themselves or someone else's salary just to crimp the cables. But cables are cheap compared to labour, so it's much cheaper to just stock up on various kinds and lengths of cables every time you have a project that demands them. Then next project that you need that kind of cable, it's much quicker and cheaper than making your own.

2:25: I just ran into an example of needing a larger crimp than the 1.9 (though not sure if the 2.2 on the IWISS is exactly correct for this case): JST VH connector crimps, e.g. for a motor driver board (like the 3.96mm pitch VH pins on the left side of board here kzbin.info/www/bejne/ipKmpp54nJl7oJo). The Engineer PA-09 documentation shows it's compatible with PH/ZH/NH/EH and you need the next bigger crimper, the Engineer PA-20 (adds 2.0 and 2.3 crimp slots), for VH.

I use one of those Multi-functional crimpers. {right one at 0:33} and they are indeed quite tricky to learn on how to use them. But once you get the Hang of it they work like a charm. {setting the strength of the crimp to the lowest setting is needed} If you just started using it the crimps are good enough for Cables that do not see a lot of stress on the Cable itself, But if the Cable sees a lot of movement and stress i would not suggest using them.

I've been using the Engineer crimper professionally since I found it looking for generic crimper around five years ago. It's *by far* better tool than the rubbish generic no-name crimpers you usually find in the lab if you don't have a part-specific crimper. Obviously purpose build Molex et al crimping tools are better but they're waaaaay expensive. Naturally if you actually make cables in anger, it's worth it as a good tool that will crimp the wire in one go, but if you're mostly doing couple of prototyping cables occasionally, then the PA-09 will get the job done. There's also a bigger version called PA-20. As for the crimps getting stuck, it's usually because you use too small opening. Generally you have to do the wire crimp in one slot and insulation crimp in another.

What i have noticed is that all IWISS tools seem to have tighter matching dies installed on them (visible in this video as well) and the machining seems to have less margin. after getting frustrated with my weierli sn-28b (nearly throwing it out the window.) I bought both SN-01BM and the SN-28B and they both work amazing. Maybe do a comparison between budget SN28 crimper(s), even though the PA-09/IWS 2820M are workhorses. I do like the "squeeze once, and done" deal with the 01BM and 28B by IWISS, and for that price... No they are NOT as good as the official crimpers, but close enough to be used and rely on. Maybe i'm just lucky, maybe there's something to this brand.
