Few prime-lite lights from Napa, as well as their line of swivel impact sockets.

I really like prime-lite products, they are durable enough to last me a while, but cheap enough that when one leaves the shop under a truck I don't cry too hard. I do wish these ran on AA batteries instead of AAA, they had the room to make it happen, and AA are way more economical.

The impacts were 70% off in the flyer, so I figured I would give them a go. Can't go wrong for $35 I believe. 10-19mm.

Warrantied a 3/8" ratchet at Canadian tire. This MAXIMUM ratchet is completely different than the one it is replacing. Screwed in ratcheting mechanism instead of a snap ring. Handle is also thinner and shorter. Feels better in the hand, as well as the internals. Time will tell how it does!

I needed a tamper resistant T-9 to replace the crankshaft on my M12 ratchet.
I ended up buying the Titan set.
Im impressed with the quality and i like the green coating.
Recommend.

KnurledNut,

Where did you find the green torxes? Was it online or local?


I have some made in India SAE wrenches that are Titan I really like but see seldom use. I got them from Auto Zone. Titan has an entire line of tools.

Have you got any experience with them? I was looking at them too. They have a lot of options! I haven't used one, I'd love to hear some feedback on them.

I have some experience with them, Clark Industrial Wholesale is one of our suppliers and they sell prime lite flashlights, a few guys at work have different styles of them, see below:

If they are anything like those shown above, they I would assume that they are good. I would say they are a good bang for the buck.

Snap-on F936 (which I rebuilt), Williams M-52EHA (which I made into a bit ratchet), and an Eastwood bit set.

I bought that same prybar about a month back also the 20 oz. hammer from HD. Both have been lifesavers as I am redoing my deck at this time. The prybar is fantastic.

Ah sorry. I meant the ultra pro ratchets. I've got lots of prime lite in my box :) but thanks for the feedback!

Picked these up today off craigslist. Mitutoyo 4" Absolute Digimatic calipers. I got them for $30 and I don't believe they have ever been used. Then I noticed a calibration sticker on the back, figured they were a backup pair for a machinist.

Looking closer when I got home, the calibration sticker says Mitutoyo. Then I googled the number on the case, 500-195-30CAL and it turns out these came from the factory with a NIST traceable letter of accuracy, which makes msrp jump about $50. ($125 new without, $172 new with)

Not that I need a certificate (these are going to be home use), but still thought it was cool.

Very nice. I've thought about getting a 4" set for work for getting in tight spots.

Needed a new air line end at work, and though I would give these a go. Didn't realize how pricey couplers had gotten. Almost $14 at Princess Auto for the female, and $11 for the male ends.

The comparison photo is a A style end. Hoping this makes the impact hit a little harder!

I just switched over all my air tools and lines to these, made a HUGE difference, seriously. My impact tools are vicious now. Did a little before and after test with a huge red loctited Lift bolt; no go with "T" fittings, No problem with "V" fittings, I was really happy with them. Added bonus, way easier to oil tools with the larger diameter fitting.
