They work if.... [Posted on 2006-07-19]
They are adjusted properly. They have a tension adjuster and if it's not set right it will just cut your wire right off rather then just strip it.
A good little tool to have, but not a replacement to your regular wire strippers.

I bought one a long time ago and could not believe how it functioned, but I've carried it on every wire stripping job, from 8-ga to 22-ga challenges, and it has stripped them all equally well. Saves me a ton of time and I love avoiding old-school wire stripping methods.

As a former car stereo/alarm installer, these have been the best strippers I've used. One reason is because under the dash, there are many times you have so little room to work with. These strippers will grab the tip of the wire and strip it off with ease. That means if you have almost no clearance, you can still strip the wire. And you can also strip multiple wires of the same size at the same time by just lining them up inside the jaws and squeeze away.
This stripper is not good for very thick wires (I'm talking 10 gauge or thicker) or very thin wires as it can easily take some extra strands off the thin wire. However, any good installer will have more than one wire stripper to do a specific job. This stripper is definitely one that should be included in your toolbox.
Don't even think of trying to strip solid wire (i.e. home wiring) with this stripper. It's only good for stranded wire.
