I use a Mac EM721 pretty much daily at work. When that kicks the bucket, a Fluke will probably replace it if I don't find another 721.

It's more that bits are a consumable item, not something that should be warrantied out at all.

I'd like to add to that, people that warranty entire bit sets at HF for breaking one bit.

Honestly, you'd be surprised at the number of places you can sneak it into when you're desperate, I mean try hard enough. The smaller profile is honestly the only reason I upgraded from the 2767 to the 2967. That being said, unless you're doing exclusively tires, I see no purpose to the...

I have the snap on dual venturi HD refiller because I'm working on semis, otherwise I'd run either this or the astro set up. I personally prefer the metal adapters, they feel more durable, especially when you're using one individual cap on multiple vehicles every day.

I don't see how it's any more/less gimmicky than a normal flexhead ratchet.

I'm honestly surprised they still sell enough that ancient set to justify still making it.

When a previous tech has cross threaded them, when corrosion likes to weld nuts to studs, when you just want to one tap zip something off and not hammer on it for any amount of time.

Maybe it's because I'm a 6'9" 350lb gorilla, but I don't think the high torques are all that heavy.

Make sure you mark your angles anyway. My 1/2" Icon always seems off and starts counting degrees the second you even look at it.

New to me, needed both a 3/4 drive 15/16 and a 2-3/16 twelve points, was ready to drop $50 each on flea bay and checked marketplace to find this. Basically 2 full Williams 3/4 drive sets with a handful of Snap Ons, plus some random impacts, $250 and a 20 minute drive. I'm gonna go remove the...

Was it just one probe or was it doing it on all of them.

I was gonna say the same thing, I always make sure my leads are zero when I'm testing (data links especially).

I would look for a used Snap On or OTC puller. I found my CJ2002 set for $150 on marketplace. Even being an older set (old font), my dealer has no issues swapping bent jaws and broken pieces out.
