I find it does take a little fiddling to make a pretty clamp with it, but it can be done. I have found its best to lube the hose with silicone or the like when doing multiple wrap clamps with it. YOu can lose clamping due to the friction of the rubber hose, and lube helps alleviate that. All in all a great tool to have in the "emergency kit" as as long as you have wire, one size fits all.
That's what I wanted to know, thanks!
