Heh, aah that makes sense, ok...and I can see the confusion in my explanation also. to simplify, the light was fairly lit up but definitely NOT all the way being a 36 volt light, but yeah the actual problem I got fixed up. to be honest I'm always up for learning from my mistakes so if it...

I have 20 dollar HF air ratchet and it works but damn its slow. I got it for removing side/body panels on industrial stuff. TONS of little allen, torx, and 10 mil stuff. I ended up finding a 3/8 IR for 25 bucks at the pawnshop. The interesting and cool feature of that particular model (of which...

True on the differences, yes, I was on only one battery, and my probe was getting 6 volts, but since the things I was probing were hooked up normally it was reading 12 on the hot sides... ACTUALLY, I was on the middle neg and the "last" pos... yes, he was on the "middle" neg. NO IDEA how...

Ive been Using craftsman along with other brands professionally for going on 10 year snow and cant say they ever "CAUSED" me to round out or otherwise ruin any fasteners. not my US made sockets or my chinese impact sets. For that matter neither have my Taiwanese Kobalts, Protos, or SK's I think...

Hey Guys, as the title states this is for all you Power Probe users out there. I just picked mine up a couple weeks ago after drooling over it for a few years. Company paid too! So, here's the setup, then the question, apologize ahead for the length. I was diagnosing a scissor lift that ended...

I have been partial to the 40, 45 tooth range myself. You have plenty of teeth for when I really have to get on something and yet get ( at least to me anyway) much smoother action then the 36's. My go to is a wright 3490 and its great. little short but as far as action goes its the best of both...

I had used SK every day for about 9 years in the army and never really appreciated them. Of course back then I didn't know near as much about tools and manufacturers as I do now. Largely thanks to this site. It took going back to being civilian, having to supply my own tools, and realiing that...

Huh...I never thought about that. That would be pretty sweet. Personally I use a good ole US General from HF. The smaller 26 is all I needed. For a HF product I love that box. I had it in a service van for bit. Use to sit on the closed top section all the time. Some of those boxes are pure...

I didnt...but yer gettin a free hat? I want a free hat. Assuming it's green that's my favorite hat color.

Oh I know that guy! Michael from HP customer service right?:lol:

I hear ya, I very briefly succumbed to the truck. Was pretty convenient I will admit. Yeah the tools are great but personally I'd rather drop a rung or 2 down the ladder and get something probably just as good for a way more reasonable price.

Willing to part with them if your interested.

Well, I had to send SK an email today. Had to call the customer service line concerning a locked up 42475. Never having done so before I was fully expecting an endless set of prompts and hours waiting for a human being. I hit one prompt for the cust. service dept and instantly a woman...

Yeah that makes sense. Only used a few things from them. My particular box has all gearwrench for drive tools and channellocks for pliers. I got lucky. Only thing I've used so far of theirs was some water pump type pliers and now these screwdrivers. Neither were horrible but not great either...

I ordered a set of Bondhus felo screwdrivers the other day at work from the fastenal guy. Company supplies tools and uses fastenal exclusively. I was gonna get Kleins or something that range but decided to go for broke and see if they'd get me the felo's. I always wanted to try that style of...
