Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Tripp Lite 110/66 Punch Down Installation Tool (N046-000)
Customer Review: Good In Theory, Slightly Flawed In Application
Summary: 3 Stars
As mentioned by a previous reviewer, the blade on the cutting end of the 66 punch down bit notches very easily. In fact, it did so on the first 66 punch down I performed with it. This appears to be a result of the edge being poorly prepared by the company that made the actual bit. I was able to easily rectify this using a metal file and a blade sharpener. It now functions perfectly and I don't expect to have any further issues with it as I have performed more than a dozen 66 punch downs hence and the edge has not notched. However, I believe a tool should work from the start without needing any modification or refinement on the part of the user unless they are made aware of this need before purchase. If your work is mostly 110 punch downs with an occasional 66 punch down and you don't mind correcting the flaw in the 66 bit this tool is probably a good bet. If your work is mostly 66 punch downs with some 110 punch downs you'd probably be best served by avoiding this tool and purchasing something more reliable.
Another issue is the Hi/Lo impact setting. It is unusually difficult to adjust this tool from Lo to Hi, although going from Hi to Lo is not as trying. If you plan to leave it on one setting most of the time this is probably a non-issue, but if you plan to change the Hi/Lo settings frequently you may find using this tool to be rather frustrating.
