Iwiss Ratcheting Crimper

Years ago I made a video showing how I’d solder my metal JST connectors and fold over the tabs with needle nose pliers.
Comments pointed out that a proper crimper is the real solution. I took their advice and of course they’re correct.
This is using the iwiss ratcheting crimper. It takes some practice but it is a fantastic tool.

Took a few tries to get the hang of it, thanks for letting me know I'm doing it right.

I still mess it up occasionally but it is 100% a better solution than soldering.

I see that the insulator is crimped into the conductor crimp area. Which is not good. It could cause connectivity failure.

[@hughqelliott]

I appreciate that. Thanks.

[@JeremyEllington]

Nice, clear usage, thanks!
1) What gauge of wire are you using here?
2) Exactly what JST connectors are those (e.g., jst-xh)?

[@hughqelliott]

You're welcome! 1. I think it's 20awg. 2. JST-XH, yes

How wide is the thinnest bit? Looking at some small JSTs it needs to be no.more than 1mm. My SN-28b tends always to butcher these because it's way too thick
