The ratchet version of the Ideal Telemaster isn't

one in with my spare tools, but its not my first choice and I don't

junk IMO though.
Ok, found it..... I don't have either of the Ideal tools your talking
about. Mine is a Ideal Crimpmaster. It does ratchet, which I assume is
benefit since it doesn't release until the full crimp has been placed
on the connector.
It's 30-525 on Ideals web page, if your not familiar with it.
I was a bit surprised to find it's made in Taiwan. Its got to be the
most expensive Taiwanese tool I've even purchased at $55.
