Steve and all:

What would you say is the advantage of buying the more expensive crimping 
tool for Anderson Power Poles, as opposed to the cheaper GB model?

I'm about to make a purchase here, and I'm willing to spend the bucks for 
the more expensive tool if there might be some advantage in doing so.

Please clarify if you can.
