I was wondering if anyone has found an inexpensive alternative to Packard 56 crimpers, for factory style terminals. All that I have seen start at about $100. I've been looking at cheaper open barrel crimpers on eBay and such that are about half the price, but I don't want to spend the money and find out they don't work, especially when I only need to do a couple of repairs. I already have the terminals, and prefer them over the generic terminals for looks and quality of connection. If anyone has had good luck with a cheaper tool, I'd really appreciate any info you could share.
Thanks,
Eric

I always use the Klein Tools Sta-Kon style (Home Depot, approx. $20)
