I purchased a Helios H4TC0001 crimper, as recommended by Kyocera and have to report it as junk. After wrecking several H4 crimps I went back to using the German-Made Multi-Contact tool used for MC4 connectors and it appears to do a fine job on the H4 crimps. Just difficult to have everything lined up, and to stay lined up.

I bought a set of theAmpenol H4 crimp teeth and loactor for my Reinstag crimper some time back, to handle the Amphenol H4 connectors They work well but require changing the locator for femal and male crimps and they are expensive. I see this tool is out there.

Any experience with this? What are your thoughts. With Regards Carl Adams, President SunRock Solar, LLC 513.290.9072<tel:513.290.9072> (cell) 513.766.6025<tel:513.766.6025> (office)
