What is Reddit's opinion of Engineer Precision Crimping Pliers for Open Barrel Terminals PA-20?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

I recomend getting one of these,should be available from amazon ger https://www.amazon.com/Engineer-PA-20-Universal-Terminal-Crimping/dp/B002AVVO7U

If that one is not available mdpcx has excellent crimper.You can also get sleeving from them

If you want to go full budget get paracord from ebay,heatshrink from local electronic shop or something along those lines.

I recomend getting atx terminals from ebay or ali just watch out that they MUST have long tabs(thing that go into cable).When i ordered some connectors i got extra pins which have sjort tabs and cant grip the cable good enough.

Connectors also from ebay/ali.Pm me if u want to know something morw

Thanks for the suggestion. What kind of tool do you use to crimp them? Do you have the molex brand one or use something cheap/generic like this? It seems IDC plugs are available for those; do you ever use those?

I use japan enginer tools. Happy with them. https://www.amazon.fr/Pince-sertir-universelle-connecteurs-Engineer/dp/B002AVVO7U/ref=mp_s_a_1_14?dchild=1&keywords=crimping+tool+jst&qid=1610404815&sr=8-14

these (https://www.amazon.com/Engineer-PA-20-Universal-Terminal-Crimping/dp/B002AVVO7U) changed my view on the connectors. Those big stupid ratcheting ones are useless.

All the info you need and more are on this thread:

For how to-s and tools I put out a video a couple years back which covers this specific connector towards the end.

Look further down the product page in the "Associated Products" section to get the part#'s for the crimps.
