Best review vid on TH-cam hands down! Sound excellent! Picture quality excellent! Camera angle excellent! Finally a review video where you can actually understand whats being said & see all the details of the bag! Thank you so much for a great video
Greg, Thanks for the tour of your new tool bag. I've never tried the screwdrivers and nut drivers you have. I always used (and liked) Xcelite. I also used genuine Vice Grip locking pliers, as well as Channel Lock pliers. When I did in-house service, I had a mechanics tool chest. For field service, I used the suitcase-type tool kit with the pallets with the pockets on them for tools. There was space in the bottom for testing equipment (meters, etc.). I never had to climb ladders, but I think my right arm was stretched a few inches longer from toting about 35 lbs of tools around! My truck had a service body and I kept spare parts in bins in the compartments on the truck. The truck also had a water-proof camper shell so I could carry spare vacuum pumps and drive motors and keep them from the elements. After the trucks got tired, they switched to vans and that was great! There were metal bins on both sides and on the rear doors for spare parts, etc. I had plastic bins with motors, vacuum pumps, "octal" pin relays, power relays, contactors, motor starters, etc. Sorry to ramble on so much. Thanks for the video. Personally, I would be interested in a showdown between different brands of screwdrivers, nut drivers, etc. Have a good one. Dave
My Vice Grips live in my van. Sometimes you need them for that pesky stripped screw or nut, but not one of my regular use tools. I have a set of Xcelite precision screwdrivers and electronics pliers and strippers for electronics work. We are currently in the process of switching from Ford E-150 and 250's to most likely the new Dodge vans. They are much more square letting the bins sit flush against the van sides and I can pretty much stand up in it. Plus they are advertised with the dealer outfitted Sortimo bins and shelves. We are going to try one out first and see how it goes and hopefully when my van is done with it's life I'll get one.
also if your interested look into the Bahco adjustable wrench 9072 they are slim enough to get to txv heads and they open up to 34mm. its an 8 in adjustable and opens as wide as a 12in
100 % guarantee that if you swith from your channel locks to knipex pump pliers aka channel locks you will not be disappointed.. they're self locking and made so you can't pinch your fingers hands down the best. I know people like what they like but knipex makes the best pump pliers
You should check out the Knipex Pliers Wrenches to replace your Adj crescent wrenches. All sizes of the Pliers Wrenches open much wider then the equivalent adj wrench! For example, My 7" pliers wrench opens a full 1/2' wider then the 7" adj wrench I have....Great video!
Love mine as a commercial electrician everything works as if it’s new after 3 years. Nothing broken. I even ran it over with my truck with my fluke in it and no thing broke and I’ll tools were good to go.
I have a tech MC which is the size smaller than the techLC but had mine for year and a half and going strong but thinking of upgrading to the lc for a bit more room
Thanks alot for the review! Great video and thanks for showing your tools. Always nice to see different tools and different reasonings for using such tools. Awesome video.
Good Vid! I definitely would like to see your videos on tool comparisons as well as all the HVAC vids you can throw at us! ~ Keep up the great work. I was interested in the comment you said you don't keep wire strippers in your bag. I have taken a lot of heat on videos where I did not use wire strippers but I have often felt more comfortable using my pliers and believed it more important to verify no wire strands were lost or the wire was not nicked. I guess you got me curious to hear your thoughts on wire strippers?
Wire strippers only go to 10 AWG so anything beyond that you are using line-mans or a knife so there's no real difference. Like you said you just have to be sure you don't cut strands off when doing it. Your not really cutting directly through anyway. Just scoring the jacket and pushing it off the same way wire strippers do.
This is our livelihood, $200-300 for quality is a bargain... I always buy the best stuff I can get, never once regretted it... I have regretted spending good money on garbage though...
Get yourself a Knipex Pliers Wrench and you can lose 3 cresent wrench. Then maybe a Knipex Electrical Installation pliers. And lastly a set of Wera or Wiha multi bit screwdrivers . wera are more comfortable while Wiha have much better tips.
hey brother if you purchase a veto bag you can fill out the promotional flyer and receive the TP3 for free. look on line for veto pac promional. also you should look into nylog for flarenuts and what not. they have the red and blue one and it works better then leaklock
Still using the Tech-LC...? I'm thinking of going up to the LC from my MC bag, only concern is the weight - MC currently tips the scales at ~28lbs fully loaded...the LC is almost double the weight of the MC empty - might have to use that shoulder strap.
Holding up fine. I broke the tape holder, but other than that it's good. Shoulder strap bags are the way to go especially climbing up and down ladders.
I don't justify the price for a bag with pockets for storing ants. I don't get what all the hype is all about the klien while it has its design flaws has better pockets where you can get the tools in and out much easier

Been following you since you put out the staybrite8 vid, best decision I ever made.. Keep up the great work & many thanks!
That is a Nice bag ..The schrader pin tool was cool to see how it works
The fuel filter wrench thing was really cool.

Bill Maria I have knipex alligators and they are solid
No, he thinks they are useless...

Nice video. I have been using Veto bags for years. My go to bag is the Tech-LC and I use it every day. Great bag.
Great video bro!! You Explained everything with great detail. 👍👍
Just bought Knipex electrical tools. Great quality
I have a tech MC which is the size smaller than the techLC but had mine for year and a half and going strong but thinking of upgrading to the lc for a bit more room
Have just bought the XL, thinking that these bags will see us out !! Why shouldn't we have the best ??
Thanks alot for the review! Great video and thanks for showing your tools. Always nice to see different tools and different reasonings for using such tools. Awesome video.
very nice review thank you very much sir.
Really enjoyed the tour. I have the older LC and it has worked out pretty good.
Fantastic review
nice look's pricey but it's good for what u do u have a lot of knowledge as also being a machinist wow!!!!!

That’s not how the warranty works at all. You call and send them a pic by text and without any cost send u a new bag to use while they fix yours.

Great vídeo thanks, good bag.☺☺☺
Get yourself a Knipex Pliers Wrench and you can lose 3 cresent wrench. Then maybe a Knipex Electrical Installation pliers.
And lastly a set of Wera or Wiha multi bit screwdrivers . wera are more comfortable while Wiha have much better tips.
willie tierney no he thinks the little grooves on the knipex pump pliers are useless..
Good Video, Thanks for sharing
hey i have a question.. will a hammer fit in the bag ? like a duct hammer? im a hvac tech and that bag looks like it will be perfect for me
Yeah it should May not fit vertically, but it should fit lengthwise across the bottom. It's ~13" long. There is a larger version of this bag also.
I have the same bag and love it. Rarely use the shoulder strap though. Good review on bag and tools.
I need something I can sling on my shoulder for going up and down ladders. Especially those vertical ones.
What's the best waterproof bag?
hey brother if you purchase a veto bag you can fill out the promotional flyer and receive the TP3 for free. look on line for veto pac promional. also you should look into nylog for flarenuts and what not. they have the red and blue one and it works better then leaklock
Thanks for the info. I'll be sending that in next week.
Just do it before July 31st
Emin HVAC Just came in the mail. Now to figure out what to put in it.
***** nice
***** u should just make a separate service pouch for a quick grab
What size channel locks do u have ? I am looking at getting this bag but I have 12 inch channel locks wanna make sure they'll fit.
Ian McVay they fit in my lc
2:07 it's Propaline
Still using the Tech-LC...?

nice watch pop's old wrench very sentimental!!!!
i got the tech xl this bag is great but i wanted the back pack version way better
Can I fit 16oz hammer in there? 🤔
It has a holster on the side
It's not alastic it's Neoprene
So is it still in use?
Yes
I don't justify the price for a bag with pockets for storing ants. I don't get what all the hype is all about the klien while it has its design flaws has better pockets where you can get the tools in and out much easier
Again it's Propaline not cheap plastic
More day in the life please
Is the Greenlee crimping too you have is the KP1022D ?
+Marius Kaizerman
Yes it is
+Halligan142 I'm looking to get such a tool for myself. After a year of usage, do you still prefer it over the Klein 1005?
Thanks!
+Marius Kaizerman Yes I prefer it over Klein
Great Vid ! But GreenLee tool is make by Klein ...... :/
Klein is independent. Greenlee is owned by Textron.
That's a lot of power sockets
never know when you need to plug something in.
at 200 bucks ,they miss the price point
