This works well once you get the technique down. It took a few tries to figure out that you have to let it work and not let it turn too long. It's just a second or two, then straighten out the kinks with the head of the tool. It will save having sore thumbs when doing a large number of cables.

I did a camera system and used this tool. At first full charge it pulled cables to the side fine. The side grooves made it easy to straighten cables easily. Turning 23 AWG cable hurts the fingers if done manually.This made it easier. I charged it up and it worked well for 6 cables. I come back and do 6 more and it worked ok and at times it would struggle to untangle. I learned how to use this tool. I attempted it again in a colder day and it failed 4 of 6 times.When I say it failed I say this, it would not turn and the cable would stay twisted and the tool would seem to stop turning properly.I unfortunately was out of the time to return after noticing this. It does work on some cables at 23 AWG on a Hot Texas 110 Degrees weather where the copper is hot enough to turn easily, yet it fails on real copper. The claims about 23 AWG are false. I wish I had tested in a Freezer with cables at that temperature and would have saved 100 bucks.

Great tool but could use some improvements. This needs a physical shut off switch. When I'm using it, I put it in my tool belt, but if the switch gets press by other items in my tool belt, the tool will run. Also, a hard case would be nice. When I'm not actively using it, it goes in a tool box, and AI think it can easily be damaged. One last thing that I don't like is that it is easy to press the switch when I'm trying to straighten out wires.Otherwise, it is a great tool and works better than I imagined.

After using this on over 100 jacks, I'll say it works pretty good and saved a lot of wear and tear on my hands.It does have some limitations though. It doesn't work very well at all on Cat6/Cat6a cable that has thicker insulation on the pairs (Vertical Cable Cat6 Plenum is a good example). It did a great job on other Cat6 cables from ICC, ABA, Digilink Global, Belden, Commscope.If the holes were bigger on the head it would probably work good on other cables as well. All in all it has saved time and my hands during termination and would recommend to others.

I seen all the good reviews and watched the video and it looked sweet. I've been doing av for 20 yrs and after spending the stupid amount of money for this thing. I can say it's extremely difficult to use . U might get it to work like the video shows once out of the 4 pairs. The rest of time it will either catch and quickly over twist the wire or it will only catch the tips of wire and over twist them . They have a great idea here. The problem is the driver spins way to fast . I detached the head and installled it in a smaller cheaper and slower screwdriver and it works 80 better. So big problem fix on speed would get this device a 4 star rating from me. But for now as is we'll be generous and say 2 stars. If u can find a way to buy the head or insert , then buy a cheap tiny screwdriver , low speed is the ticket for now. If the company returns my email I can fix it for them. So after using this for a month I have got the hang of it and even with the issues this thing has I can honestly say it cuts the time in half and my fingers aren't near as sore. I used it today to terminate 130 cat 5 and 6 wires. So that's 520 pairs . I had one tech cutting insulation , me untwisting all wires and 2 techs punching down rack . Just keep practicing with it and you will love it at the end of the day. Thansk
