    Zephyr Mag Drive Ratchet

    This does look interesting, but like you, I can't find any other information about it.

    Amazon Deals on New Retail Items - Post them!

    I bought the 1/4" version for this reason (well, and because GJ :)). I figure there will be a time when it'll be the perfect tool for some task.

    ShopVac for the house? Alternatives for hard floor vacuuming?

    No worries. I started researching them after seeing this thread and wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something. Of course, once again, I've found something that I can't live without....thanks GJ. :LOL:

    ShopVac for the house? Alternatives for hard floor vacuuming?

    Is it the C1 you're referring to? I don't see a S1 on their website.

    1/4" Locking Chrome Extensions - Matco?

    I really like the Stahlwille locking extensions that use a push button. They come in many different lengths too. Stahlwille with exposed button: https://www.stahlwille.de/products/de_en/12011001-12011001.html Stahlwille with recessed button...

    Hazet 163-95/8 Double Open End Wrench Set

    So given any general Hazet tool and similar Stahlwille tool for the same price here in The States, you think the Hazet would be a better purchase? Is this based on your experience with performance or just fit and finish? I'm relatively new to these German brands, so I'm genuinely curious about...

    Tekton Angle wrench set

    I have a few individual wrenches and like them for what they are. They apparently aren't as strong as forged wrenches (see the video below), but I'm not using mine for high-torque scenarios.

    Anybody made their own Hanson style socket organizers

    I hadn't seen the Ernst socket organizers before. They look perfect for what I'm wanting to do. Thanks for mentioning them. Are the Ernst and Ko-ken rails interchangeable in the Socket Boss® Tray?

    Amazon Warehouse Deals

    I also thought that I snagged them, but instead of the flex head set I received the MWS-12RC non-flex set. They're going back tomorrow... Maybe you'll receive the correct set (although I think you're probably right about them not being 6pt). Good luck!

    which cordless tool platform has battery chargers that condition the batteries?

    This is the first I've heard of the Ridgid LSA - I've obviously been living under a rock.... Free batteries for life seems almost too good to be true. Do other manufacturers have similar agreements? Why isn't Ridgid dominating the market just because of their LSA?

    Any reason to have non-locking extensions if I were to have locking extensions?

    Not that I've experienced. While that possibility always exists, the socket usually has a larger diameter so it sort of protects the button from accidental engagement. KC Tool has a good video showing its operation: https://www.kctool.com/stahlwille-427qr-quickrelease-extension-3-8-240-mm/

    Any reason to have non-locking extensions if I were to have locking extensions?

    I agree with everyone else in that they aren't needed, but with the Stahlwille and Wera ones being so unobtrusive, I tend to use them most of the time for the added security. Each of them offers lengths that the other doesn't, so I have both. Their quality is very good and I'm quite happy with...

    Any reason to have non-locking extensions if I were to have locking extensions?

    Stahlwille and Wera makes locking extensions that use a push button instead of a collar. Stahlwille with exposed button: https://www.stahlwille.de/products/de_en/12011001-12011001.html Stahlwille with recessed button: https://www.stahlwille.de/products/de_en/catalog/product/view/id/37308/...
