PSA: I picked the 24 inch wire stripper over the 18 inch and my hands thanked me

Last week I was rewiring a Cessna 172 panel and had to choose between my old 18 inch stripper and a new 24 inch one a buddy lent me. The extra reach let me get behind the avionics stack without contorting my arm, and the job finished 20 minutes faster than usual. Has anyone else switched to longer strippers, or do you just pull the whole stack out?
