Tool Reviews
One of the most popular categories in tools right now is the “add-on” tool. What that means is that if you buy a certain battery platform and a tool line to go with it, then you can add on specialty tools and in most cases they won’t cost you a fortune, because you are [...]
DeWalt DCL040 20v MAX LED Flashlight We thought that sunny Florida would be the perfect place to test the strengths and weaknesses of a flashlight. I mean, if a flashlight can pull its weight in the bright Florida sunshine, it should be able to illuminate just about any project you have planned. The DCL040 is [...]
Bayco NSR-9910 Nightstick Flashlight We found the Bayco NSR-9910 Nightstick Flashlight from a distance at the 2012 SEMA/AAPEX Show – shining like a…well, you get the point. Several things made this flashlight cool. The foremost being the downward-facing flood beam that added another dimension to the tool. We had never before seen one like it, [...]
I have always been a fan of the Stanley Tripod Flashlight, and have reviewed the predecessor to this one (95-112). I’m happy to say that even though I never really had any issues with some of the negatives I read on other reviews, Stanley obviously pays attention, because this new and improved model addresses all [...]
I have not come across one of the Tek4 tools so far that I have not liked, and the Ryobi Tek4 LED Hi-Beam Flashlight is no exception. If you read other reviews online, you’ll see that I’m not alone. And, as I’ve said in past Tek4 reviews, once you get the batteries and pick up [...]
Ryobi RP4400 LED Flashlight This is not going to be the lengthiest review that you’ve ever read, because there’s really nothing negative to say about this little flashlight. It’s a compact flashlight (about 4 ½”) but it packs a powerful punch. It’s pretty simplistic in design… just an off –on switch.It runs on the Tek4 [...]
Of all of the flashlights I’ve ever owned, this is my favorite, and I use it the most often. When this first came out from Stanley, it looked really cool, but the real question was did it do what it said it would, and the answer is undoubtedly “Yes”. Here are some of the features [...]
Coast HL7 LED Headlamp Review Headlamps are extremely handy to keep in your tool box, glove box, closet, workshop….actually just about everywhere. The fact is, you’re going to need it at some point – it’s not “if”, it’s “when”. This headlamp has some handy features that make it a standout. Coast HL7 LED Headlamp Features [...]
Great Christmas Tool Gifts Guys really don’t want ties… they do want tools and gadgets. Throughout the year, I try out new products. Some are a better design to a tried and true tool. Others are new, quite inventive tools. But, in the end, I always think that a tool that makes a job simpler [...]
I was introduced to the Stanley Clamp Light at a press event. As soon as I saw it, I liked it. Since that time, I’ve used the light for everything from swapping circuits in my electrical panel to shooting pictures and video. It’s performed like a champ to date. The light runs on either 2 [...]
