So many people love this tool rucksack and are willing to pay top dollar. Finally someone who doesn't.
Glad I didn’t waste my money on it, it will be going very soon 😂
i’m a gas engineer i use that bag as an electrical bag to change programmers or motorised valves etc
keeping connector blocks spare fuses
a multimeter as well stored in there
I’ve thought about doing the same to be fair
Never understand why people hate on someone who says he doesn't like the bag if he thinks its shite ,then other people come along and then tbf say hes right ,so just makes me wonder about the others saying its so good 😂
I’ll always be honest, would love for them to improve the bag as it’s got so much potential
I have the same one, definitely more for sparks etc than plumbers, I’m a spark and it works fine with me with screwdrivers, volt tester, pliers snips and grips, does most jobs with what it carries. However I agree about the two long pockets- totally pointless and the Velcro top that never stays down, I also find it tops foward very easily but it’s convenient size and seems well built.
I agree I like the size for what I want it for but just need tweaking a little to make it better
I bought my wife the Velocity Rogue 3.0 XS as a jobbing bag for Christmas. She loves it and has no complaints
I’ve got that one already and use it for installs I might swap and use it for jobbing instead
Great vid! Nice to see some honesty too! Personally, I think a lot of the big premium branded bags are aimed at Sparks - they all seem to be good in concept but just lacking a little. I’m currently using the Velocity 4.5 backpack - it’s nice and quite good but use it for servicing or quick jobs only, my Dewalt McLaren I’d say is probably more suited! Keep em coming bro!
Cheers mate you definitely right there good in concept but practically they don’t work for everyone
@@SmartPipePlumbing I’ve been wanting to do a video like this myself for a while but still trying to find the perfect setup before doing it 😂 I’ll keep you posted but let me know if you have any ideas for the OTMC and the SDLD!
Hope velocity listens to your recommendations cos I’d buy the bag again if they improved it.
Fingers crossed they do
Good video. I feel the same it's too small for a main service bag I use mine for electrical work like replacing the thermostat and diverter valve heads. I've replaced it with the Dewalt 2.0 tool bag it's a little better
It’s got potential to be a really good back just need changing slightly
I thought I was the only one. I have this bag and have the same issues. Love my 5.0 however
Glad it’s not just me then, I’ll have a look at the 5.0 what do you use it as?
Need 9.0 for plumbers/eating engineers. Bit heavy but fits everything
Try the “n.b 200” it is a good bag and I would recommend it
Isn’t it basically the same bag?
@@SmartPipePlumbing no it has tape holder and inside the bag has more pockets it was designed by that electrician nick bundy
I find it hard having a grab bag… always end up going back to the van for something. I just carry one tool bag with everything in. But then wish I had a grab bag 😂 can’t win
I find it easier than lugging all my tools in to every job, I can take a lighter bag in if needed for them small jobs
@@SmartPipePlumbingI used to think like that but now i just have one main veto bag i take into everyjob at least now they can't take my tools when the van gets broken into which has happened quite a few times now.😅
Try Toughbuilt bags i have both including Velocity and all way end up going back to my Toughbuilt bags if im honest 👍
I’ll have to have a look not seen much of them, where can you get them from?
I've got the toughbuilt and love it
Put some plastic beakers in the front to stand the tools up.
Maybe but should have to when the bags are worth what they are
I have this bag I love it but yea I have the same problems as you to be fair
It’s got so much potential to be a great bag just needs a few tweaks
Definitely agree with you. Id imagine it serves a purpose for some lads but not plumbers
Sparkies I imagine, they don’t carry much tools
@@SmartPipePlumbingAnd don’t clean up so don’t have to carry Dustpan and brush 😂
@@Danfrank24I’m a spark and carry a dustpan and brush and a vacuum! 😂
@@richard3004 rarer than hens teeth haha
@@Danfrank24😂🤣
Veto Pro Pac
yeah, they have the same problems.
@@wim0104 not really, a similar Veto bag opens the opposite way, the Velcro part is at the bottom and it pulls back up and over. Also many of the Veto bags are now modular and have what they call v-swap panels so you can customize the various pockets that are inside your bag.
👍😎👍
🙌🙌
what are plumplums? The third tools you showed in the bag. Anyone?
Plumb chums they are used to black radiators of and can also carry radiators with them
Just get yourself a tech mct
I’ll have a look had quite a few recommend veto
Agreed next step for you would be veto mct...small but can carry plenty..
Or even the veto tpxxl ?
I have the tech mct and the tpxxl, the tpxxl is the one I use all the time now. Can carry everything I need for service and repair, the mct does as well but I found it a pain having to open both sides and keep rotating it. Lazy I know!
Can’t see a link to Dan stokes ? ?
Sorry forgot to put them in www.techersltd.com
4.0 XS?
I’ll have a look at that do you have one?
Find them expensive and more of a fashion statement for tradesmen. Don’t know anyone that’s got one
They are good quality but I know what you mean 😂
I just stick with VETO and buy on their twice yearly promotions, they are all made in China anyway.
I’m thinking veto next time to be fair
You really dont need a tool bag of that size with the amount of tools you have.. A more compact bag wouid be more fitting. The bag itself is probably heavier than the tools. Based on observation, i can tell the bag is top heavy because it's too high and the base is too small. I'm annoyed by thst bag already and i don't own it, i'd sell it quick.
Thanks for the advice do you have tips of which bag to get?
@@SmartPipePlumbing I've been looking at tool totes and tool bags for awhile and bought many. Veto pro pack, DeWalt bags, husky, tough built, and many others. I'm a full time handyman so I have quite a few bags for different trades. For plumbing I settled with husky 14" large mouth. Husky makes very good bags and I consider them prograde. The other bag I settled with is welkinland 14" tool bag, which I use for electrical. My main set up is a husky bucket sleeve and bucket which I used for larger jobs, etc. One thing I have learned over the years is you really don't need a large bag to do most residential work. simple, light, and quality is what I prefer. Good luck on your hunt.
@@qzetu I’ll have a look at them I’ve never heard of either
No no no you can’t diss velocity products. Next you’ll be telling me unilights are crap, rhino trade insurance is gash, Ct1 is junk and Tradify is a con 😮
@@randomcamerajunk6977 CT 1 is overpriced and No better than say Soudal grab adhesive which is half the price.
You got it all bang on 😂😂
Personally i think all this velocity stuff is overpriced and not needed. Had a metal cantilever fold out box , £25 from Halfords for years. I like tool boxes / holders that you can just chuck your tools in at the end of the day. I'm currently using a Dewalt power tool case as my my main toolbox. Just chuck the tools back in and no organising.
See I like to be organised and not have to mess around looking for tools
Tbh there will never be a perfect bag mainly because your kit changes over time. There’s too much space or never enough space. Pockets are too big or too small and everything in between… not bad for free though I suppose
@@elcapitancamthat’s true. Iv lost count how many bags/ boxes iv had over years. Next time I’ll do what a joiner I know does, couple of plasterers mixing buckets (the long white ones) with everything thrown in.
I blame the immigrants
😂😂😂
@@SmartPipePlumbing congratulations on 10k my man
