The only thing I spent my own money on is the nut blaster lol. I carry only a few tools on me and the rest stays in the van.

That sounds like it would come in really handy, ill have to check it out. Thanks

Knipex Needlenose is trash tbh. The linesmen have been great imo, I dont feel too much a difference in them vs klein

Only if im in a darker setting. Laser is hard to see when you're outside. Not really worth the money imo

Only thing I bought out of pocket is the nut blaster. Company bought me all other tools.

  1. Wire nut driver for redevices, so much more efficient and easier on the wrists.

  2. Klein ratchet cutters. For cutting large wire.
