This crimper is not for crimping works on 0.1" housings
The product description is somewhat misleading. I thought I could use it for crimping pins of 0.1" housings on 20-22 AWG wires. The height of smallest hole is little over 2mm. It can't crimp alligator clip on 16 AWG wire - diameter is 0.0508" (1.29032 mm). So it's out of option of most electronic related wire works, i.e. DIY electronic stuff, i.e. building / modifying electronic devices, and etc. 0.1" housings take 22-26 AWG wires.
I made few shots so that other customers don't make same mistake I did. 2 mm of Allen key goes through the smallest hole.
