This looks OK but being a long, straight piece of metal is quite limiting to what it can access. The screw mechanism looks tedious.
Do a web search for "remote hose clamp tool" and the main items that come up look like what I have. It works really well. The thing that grabs the clamp tabs is at the end of a cable so it can reach anywhere. The squeeze handle compresses or releases the clamp tabs easily. Works great.
