How to crimp goooooood

Hi guys, I personally roll with solder gang but crimps are still the GOAT occasionally. You need to crimp well to assemble a Lemontron, so here are my tips…

1. Disable the ratchet! Let the crimper become a natural extension of your body. The ratchet dulls your sensations. Feel the JST connector succumb to your power.
2. A crimp must BEGIN well to end well. You can’t just barrel through life like some sort of baboon. You have to begin gently squeezing the JST and get a feel for it. If it buckles, it’s a DUD…abort!
3. Precision is key: Expose the tip of the wire, just 1mm for this tiny connector.
4. Insert the wire by feel primarily but LOOK AT IT WITH YOUR EYES TOO.
5. Don’t practice on the motors! You need to just get a feel for it and then you’ll be a pro crimper.
