I've got some Rothenberger dies coupled with a ratchet style handle, still sharp as anything and have been used quite a bit over the last 6/7yrs, the 32mm die is not fun to use though :tearsofjoy:
2 wire Lo was indicated on screen, only played with it for a half hour before my attention got diverted to my new new Metrel Mi3152 :smilingimp: I'll have another look when i get hold of it again.Sorry I forgot, it did work on Hager RCBOS tried them too
We've just got a Megger 1741 i tried it on the most commonly used brands of RCBO we install from lewden and wylex on a 2 wire test and it popped it out both, will have to do a bit more investigating to see whether its only those brands :tearsofjoy:
We use exclusively Flexishield, great stuff very durable and easy ish to strip though it is a pain doing a couple of meters of it at the DB, wear gloves and use a dismantling tool to score it around and break it off in 200mm or less chunks and a little quarter turn of the wrist ;) also bare in...

I use these from Davico or they’re a rebranded version, perfect form factor as they are small and fit in a tool bag quite nicely as a lot of crimpers that go up to 16mm tend to be the larger boltcroper looking ones. Only downside is you need a little more wrist power ?
I'll have a crack at it tomorrow bit blurry eyed at the moment o_O I've linked the manufacturers specs, which details some of it if you want to leaf through, put it this way the Metrel is head a shoulders above anything else out there with the varieties of tests it can perform...
Had the same dilemma about a month back and ended up with the Metrel mi1352 over the 1741+ the boss bought the 1741 at the same time, we haven't had much time to play with them both with furlough etc but from the research and umming and ahrrring I decided on the metrel because it offered far...
We use the enlite E6 pros. love the lever type connectors and integrated plugs must have fitted 700 plus and haven't had a tremendous level of failure.
