What should I expect to pay? $20 or $30 I do not do it for a living but I hate having to crimp 4ga with the cheap crimper.

If you just going to crimp only a couple of terminals just for 1 installation, not sure it is worth to invest on that thing.

I've use those bench vise to crimp my 0-gauge and 4-gauge terminals.

Better still, invest on those crimpless terminals. 4-pieces of this is still less then crimp tool.

Its not just one installation. I install for friends and family. Not a daily thing but I do it often enough that I think it would be wise to get one. I saw one on EBAY for $15 or so.

I have a lever type that crimps up to 4/0ga. It is very heavy duty. Looks just like a pair of chain cutters basically but they are not cheap.
