Your browser does not support HTML5 video.  I do a lot of hobby work using solar power to charge 12VDC batteries. I have a frequent need to install lugs on the ends of large diameter cable for efficient transfer of energy.I have been using a two handled lug crimper but I find it cumbersome to use because it takes two hands to hold and squeeze the handles and another hand to hold the cable in place in the lug. Unfortunately I don't have three hands.That's where this Towmavin Cable Crimper comes in. It can be easily operated with two hands. It crimps down tightly with just a few whacks of a hammer (see video).The product description says the crimper hammer head is made of solid diamond. Something must have been lost in the translation. It's made of steel. It will also take "thousands of beatings." Hmm, I guess that is good.Seriously, this is a good lug crimper. It's simple to operate and produces tight crimps with a minimum of effort. I highly recommend it.
