Highlights
Quality
I hesitated when considering the cost, but i am happy with the value of these wires.

Make sure you have a crimper to crimp terminals.

I would have liked to have seen a couple of extra ferrules because i’ll be using a new crimping tool and if it doesn’t go as planned i wouldn’t be left in a situation of trying to find an additional ferrule

A single sheet stating that the internal metal parts are not the same and should used so that malefemale connections are made would be very helpful for a lot of people
