No, but I've used a pipe...
Yeah a pipe works, but i'm just trying to justify my OCD urge to buy another tool that I don't need & wont use.

How much is that thing? I'm guessing not cheap with all the machine work.
Edit - $60 plus $30 shipping for 24" yikes. That's some serious pocket change for something that can do the same thing as a piece of pipe. I like the idea, but it's too expensive for me. I appreciate the fact they're veterans though.

Putting a cheater bar on a flex head ratcheting wrench like they show on their site sounds like a quick way to break the wrench. I wonder how its going to go when someone comes to them complaining that the bar broke the wrench and the company wont replace it due to a cheater bar voiding the warranty.

I have one ( thanks to my GJ Secret Santa 1014 )
I have used it a time or two. It works great. A good bit sexier than sticking on another box wrench.

Wouldn't that allow you to go in at an angle? Whereas there might not be room to get a piece of pipe into the area.
Plus if you use a 2nd wrench, there's more chances of the wrench slipping. And it's longer than a 2nd wrench would be -- thus more leverage on the fastener. Seems like it'd be a useful tool.

I personally bought the ez red wrench connectors. They were cheap and kind of a novelty thing that I thought I'd never really need. Well then I came to a spot where only a wrench would fit so just a longer ratchet was out and the old wrench over a wrench trick wouldn't work because I didn't have enough room for to wrenches in line but with the wrench connectors I could offset the 2nd wrench and then get the leverage to break the bolt free.

You should read the website, the shipping is for international orders, US shipping is free.
I work with big wrenches and this would be nice for that purpose, you usually can't put a pipe over a large wrench and hooking two together can have some consequences.
That's what the floor jack handle is for!!!
If you have room for that big bulky handle.
