    Any decent lug crimpers for 10mm onwards?

    I’ve got some lug crimping tool called iwiss off Amazon and when crimping a 10mm cable into a lug I had to use 10mm on one side and 6mm on the other side of the crimper. Not sure how well it will work when it gets to bigger cables 😕. Are there any decent lug crimpers at a reasonable price?
