I just purchased this used it for 6 presses of 3\4 copper fittings for water no leaks so far. Very happy with it, just a little heavy. Came a with 1/2to 2 inch copper press dies 2 batteries they do look like Makita style batteries. But I cannot verify. The manufacturer says it presses at 37n. Which is over 8000psi.
@@RockoRocko-rz7kx I agree with everything you are saying and yes you can use Makita batteries with the Vevor propress. Glad you got it it’s a really nice deal.
I have a handyman business, I ordered this tool for small jobs and should have it by next week, I will give it a try on a future prv valve replacement and see how it goes.. any advise for a first timer? I will try crimping some fittings before that…
Hey man, thank you soo much for doing this video. I've been doing a lot of research and have found the vevor tool to have slightly different throw or stroke lengths. Have you used this setup with alot of success months later?
@@Antiquefirearms724 it’s still holding up really good. I used it yesterday with the rigid C1/V1 jaws for a tankless water heater install. I’ll be posting that video today.
How long until vevor wants you to send it in for calibration? I assume there's certain amount of times it will actuate before needing to be checked the right KNs of force range
@@TOOL_TECHNICAL after 30,000 crimps. It shows on the Vevor pro press how many times it’s been used. I don’t know if Vevor provides that service though.
@@benjamingomez7457 yes I have a video on my channel where I use the Milwaukee mega press jaws on the Vevor pro press. Look on my channel and you will find the video.
@@Arcticwolf14444 no the head does not swivel but I just recently found out that Vevor made a smaller pro press that swivels. I believe it’s equivalent to the Milwaukee m12. I don’t need it but I might just buy it.

Can you use the Milwaukee jaws for galvanized on this tool?
@@benjamingomez7457 yes I have a video on my channel where I use the Milwaukee mega press jaws on the Vevor pro press. Look on my channel and you will find the video.
Have you used the stock jaws it came with or using a different brand of jaws like Milwaukee or rigid
@@dannychairez9925 I use the stock jaws and the different brands. Whichever one I need in the moment.
Does the head swivel?
@@Arcticwolf14444 no the head does not swivel but I just recently found out that Vevor made a smaller pro press that swivels. I believe it’s equivalent to the Milwaukee m12. I don’t need it but I might just buy it.
RLS jaws? which are compatible? Rigid?
@@donfrussell If the rls jaws from Milwaukee or Rigid fit on the Milwaukee m18 pro press, then yes they will fit on the Vevor pro press as well.
Where can you purchase the v1 kit? Thanks
@@hectorheck11 I purchased the v1 kit on Acme Tools website.
