But a Pex crimper that look like bolt cutters. They actually work. I always use solid rings as well. The rings he’s using in the video won’t pass the code in my area.
I have not broke mine yet, but I have had it lock up. This mostly happens when one handle is up against a wall. It does the job (most of the time), but it is a poor design.

I purchased that Apollo tool 3 years ago and I NEVER had any problems with it. 🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️
I am a DIY and i have had similar instance, but I would press and turn that same twisty.
My Apollo is about 15 yrs old and still going but I tend to mainly use solid rings and just use your crimps in tight spaces.
I have had no problems with it for two years now. I also don’t put a “ton” of pressure on it. Define a “ton”.

Same boat. I'd rather get something new that works. Returning things invoves communications, weighing, postal cost, waiting.. screw it.
