BTW, I DID grab this too: https://www.amazon.com/Professional-Compression-Ratcheting-Wire-electrode-Die-Orange/dp/B00OMM4YUY/ref=s9_simh_gw_g469_i4_r?_encoding=UTF8&fpl=fresh&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=&pf_rd_r=0BMEGC66PM184FX0CHKE&pf_rd_t=36701&pf_rd_p=f58829ef-ff4e-4868-b5c8-fe8c3bd9f769&pf_rd_i=desktop
And that seems like a much better tool, right? Ratcheting and does both the wire and insulation crimps at the same time? And it even SHOWS that same type of pin. But I couldn't get it to work for CRAP on these Molex C-GRID III pins. Not sure why. I suspect it wasn't intended for the smaller Molex C-GRID III, except it claims to work for "28ga". IWISS is a great brand.
