    Car Jump starter recommendation, avoid NOCO please

    Amazon has those in stock, ready to ship for $416 bucks. I'm not sure why you were having so much trouble.... The fact that it's HAZMAT just means it usually has to ship via ground transport. Not usually a big deal. Maybe being located in AK is the problem??? We can order those all day long...

    Car Jump starter recommendation, avoid NOCO please

    Remember, one jump pack per battery! and a battery charger if you run out of 660's. lolol (never mind the red 660 masquerading as a MAC jump pack)

    Car Jump starter recommendation, avoid NOCO please

    I agree. I've walked in your same shoes and had the same experience with the 660. And on a side note, (not directed specifically at you, CJM8515) as other have stated, the 660 is not great on 3/4 ton and up diesel trucks. Well, there is a reason why those trucks come with two batteries from...

    Car Jump starter recommendation, avoid NOCO please

    So it's not a JNC660 then. lol. What model are you looking at? Sure, there are bigger and better models than the 660 but for standard automotive jump starts the 660 is the industry standard.

    Car Jump starter recommendation, avoid NOCO please

    I did a quick search and found them available on Amazon, Zoro, and JB Tools.... among several other sites. JB Tools seemed to have the best deal at $145 and free shipping. I've never ordered from JB Tools so you're on your own with that. They do seem to pop up all the time and they've been...

    Car Jump starter recommendation, avoid NOCO please

    The smaller lithium jump starters are garbage..... especially if you think you'll be able to use them on a regular basis. It's not just NOCO, which, by the way, is probably the BEST brand of the smaller lithium jump starters. All other brands are even shittier. If you're carrying a jump...

    Generator recommendations?

    I have the dual-fuel version of this generator and I love it. They just came out with this new tri-fuel version a few months ago. If I had to do it all over again, this is the unit I would buy..... Of course this generator isn't really RV friendly because it's to big and heavy for that...

    Reznor Unit Heater - Quote Reasonable

    I have a 45K Reznor in my garage. (same heater the OP is looking at) A friend who owns a commercial refrigeration company picked it up for me at his local supplier. If I'm not mistaken, I'm pretty sure I paid right around $375 for the heater. I did the full install myself. This was in 2003, so...

    Permit Inspection

    Of course every inspector is human, and no human is the same but the last electrical inspection I had was painless. The inspector was very nice and he even complimented me on the quality of my work. He said something like.... "if every homeowner could do work like this, then my job would be...

    New Carlyle Pressure Brake Bleeder

    I use the Motive bleeder but it would be nice to have the bladder. I wonder how long until we see this same unit on the shelves at Harbor Freight? We should start a poll.... just for fun. lol 1. How long from today (9/5/23) until this item first appear on the Harbor Freight website? 2. How...

    Utility trailer repair - sealant?

    The tap-like product you're asking about is probably EternaBond RoofSeal tape. (I'm sure there are other knock-off brands)

    State of emergency tools/equipment?

    To each his own but.... In a long term power outage (potentially a few weeks) caused by a hurricane, I would NOT be looking to simply keep essentials charged. I am looking to run pretty much anything and everything in my house, most importantly the refrigerator, central air conditioner, and...

    State of emergency tools/equipment?

    Yes, DO NOT forget about toilet paper. Having extra toilet paper on-hand is a great suggestion for EVERYONE, not just for people who live in an area known for flooding. lolol

    What do you call electrician's pliers? [Poll]

    Even if they're made by Channellock, Ideal, Proto, Milwaukee, Irwin, etc.... you would still call them Klein's? Hey, around here everyone calls a skid loader a "Bobcat" regardless of who actually makes it. lol

    New drill bit set

    I slightly remember the previous thread that GeoBruin linked to above. Apparently, Astro "invented" these bits and then originally allowed Matco Tools to sell them..... Well, that's great but who ACTUALLY made them? Matco doesn't make ANY hand tools in their own factories and as far as I...

    New drill bit set

    I used the word "invented" because Chris from Astro said they were to original source with multiple patents for this specific design. This is why I genuinely would like to hear more about the situation. If they were indeed "the original source" then how did other manufacturers start to make and...

    New drill bit set

    I'd like to hear more about this. Astro invented them, yet others started making and selling them long before Astro had their own version available? Weird. I can't believe Norseman (Viking Drill and Tool) located in St. Paul Minnesota is knowingly making and selling a product that is under...
