Default Poll: electrical connector crimpers/dies

Even with high quality crimpers I don't trust the connection and will
normally soldier the wire to the terminal in addition to the crimp. I
have seen one too many crimps get loose to depend on them. Your
electrical connections are on top of the critical list in flying
safety.... poor wiring can cause equipment failures, electrical fires,
igniting leaky fuel, etc.

I'm wondering which "professional" electrical connector crimpers are amoung
the groups favorites and most used.

I've got a couple pair of "no-name service crimpers" but I'd like to buy a
pair of high quality crimpers for 10awg-26awg terminal crimps.

Thanks!
