Awesome!!! It’s been the best watch I have ever owned. Please let me know how you like it!

Appreciate the comment!

I was torn between the G Shock BDH2000 and the Garmin but after a ton of research, I went with the Garmin and I’m glad I did. I love it and all the features make it worth it. I agree that the settings take a little getting used to but eventually it all becomes “muscle memory.” I appreciate your comment!

@sllawo3881 1. It looks pretty normal especially because the strap has such a wide adjustment. 2. 16.7cm or 6.6 inches.

@soloman01uk thanks for the comment! Yes, I have similar battery life but I’m definitely not a runner lol. I have used the GPS when I do some hiking. What made you make the change?

@@GothamDIYandMore The Fenix 6 Solar was a great watch. I'd had it a couple of years but the battery life wasn't up to par to what I needed it for. Sleep tracking for example drained 5-6% every night. In comparison my Instinct 2X sometimes doesn't even drain 1%. I was getting about 6 days before I had to charge, which is still good in comparison to an Apple watch but I wanted more. Wasn't that fussed about a colour screen either and the 'Solar' was a bit of a gimmick. In the Instinct 2X it's a lot more viable. Also, the flashlight is genius, use it a lot.

@soloman01uk oh wow. That’s a huge difference! I love this thing so far!

@@GothamDIYandMore I've owed quite a few exercise watches from very early Garmin's to Suunto's and the Instinct 2X is by far the best. I'll be interested to see what Garmin do with the Instinct 3X, which hopefully will exist at some point.

@soloman01uk I hope so too! I’ll start saving up now so I can buy it whenever it comes out lol

@Larokko5 Thanks for you comment/questions! 1. Let me get back to you on the Garmin Pay. I have not used that feature but I will and update. 2. I have noticed that it does not track naps. it seems to only associate one sleep activity a day. However, I rarely nap so maybe it just hasn't figured out the few times I've napped since owning it. I will double check naps and let you know. 3. No issues at all with notifications! I had more issues with notifications and other feature not syncing with my Apple watch than with my Garmin 2X Solar! No, you can turn it off from running in the background and then just sync when you open the app. I typically only let it sync at the end of the day.

1. For the garmin pay, normally i just input the code once a day and you can use it the whole day without inputting it again. Make sure your bank supports garmin pay, if u're not sure. 2. No doesn't have nap tracking but will document the nap period as sleep if you nap longer than 3hrs or so. 3. You dont need to be running the app in the background of your phone. It's always connected, unless u turn on airplane mode (on the phone or the watch), or from the tactical version's stealth mode feature (which stops all wireless communications on the watch's side).

Appreciate the reply! 🙏🏽

@@moha-tk5gz thank you. Going to buy this watch if it fits to my wrist.

@@GothamDIYandMore thanks for answer)

I used to have a 5 but I never used the music feature. I have to say I love the size and the torch has saved me a few times when I needed some light. I appreciate your comment!

Grazie per il tuo commento e supporto! Penso che dovresti comunque prendere l'Instinct 2X. Ho comprato il 50mm e mi piace come appare. Non ho i polsi grandi. ho appena misurato il mio polso sinistro ed è circa 16,7 cm.

Thank you for watching and commenting! This is probably the best smartwatch I’ve owned!

@ EEEZSolutionS, thank you! I really appreciate the support for the channel!

@EEEZSolutionS - Thanks for your comment! It’s cool that you also have the same router. I love mine as well and I loved the price for the set as well. Have you used the HF bushing set yet?! I wonder for the Hercules and Skil have the same manufacturing company. This is the 3rd or 4th product that someone says there is an identical product from a different company. What router table do you use? And hey, that’s genius! I never thought about that. Doing that TODAY! Thank you! Please like, share, and subscribe to my channel!

@@GothamDIYandMore I bought the HF bushings and they are awesome!! Gonna use the 1/2" this weekend. The fixed base and plunge base, including base plates for the Skil and Hercules are IDENTICAL and they are interchangeable!! In fact, the Hercules base plates are actually slightly better - they are perfectly round and centered and the SKil are not!! My girlfriend, now wife, bought me, as a gift, the little Skil SRT1039 router table. I've made some mod to it and it works pretty well... I'm just a weekend woodworker so don't yet need an expensive table. I built a rolling cart with drawers for it for the most part I can do just about anything I need. Do you have a router table? Best, Larry

@EEEZSolutionS - I love all the input. It blows my mind that HF has some better quality control than Skil but that’s why I love HF so much! Sounds like a great gift and I can see why she’s your wife now! Lol Please share any updates with me about your projects!

Send me an email or other way and I can send photos of the changes I've made

@davidsmalley9336 - Thanks for the comment! I’m glad it was “useful” and I hope you can like, share, and subscribe to my channel. It really helps me out!

Thank you for your comment! They had them at our Sam’s for about 2 months and I finally pulled the trigger when they went on sale. A few people mentioned that they might be made by the same company as Bauer (Harbor Freight) which might be true. They look identical minus the colors. I bet that rigid system is awesome!

I’m glad that my video helped you out! I appreciate the feedback and hope that you can share, like, and subscribe to my channel!

Do you know if that are all compatible with each other?

There may be an odd chance that some are. Most have their proprietary locking system, and the lid molds are also different. That Tactix looks similar to the Bauer boxes.

@P.trim69 I’m loving it so far! Please like, share, and subscribe to my channel.

I’m going to see if my local HF has the Bauer in stock and see if it’s compatible! Please like, share, and subscribe to my channel.

It does. It might be made by the same or a “sister” company. Please like, share, and subscribe to my channel.

@andrew7445 First, thanks for you comment! I’ve actually never heard of them before buying this thing but so far I’m very happy with it! Man, that’s frustrating! You would think they would make stuff that’s compatible with their other stuff to entice people to stay with their products. I’ll have to keep that in mind. What other products do you have from them? Please like, share, and subscribe to my channel!

@@GothamDIYandMore Not sure of the model number, but mine is a chest on the bottom, similar to yours, and another smaller rectangular box on top. It's an improved version of what I already had. Yours looks like a modular system that could be added to later, hopefully that's the direction they're going. I also have their screw organizers, they stack nicely, but don't clip together or with the tool boxes. The range of tool system brands is limited in Ireland, and they're about twice the price as the US or Canada.

@andrewf7445 I’ll have to keep an eye for more Tactix stuff. So far I really like this one. I hope that you’re correct that it’s the direction they are going!

That’s awesome! Many people have told me that they keep one of these in the motorcycle’s saddle bag! Thanks for the comment. Please like, share, and subscribe!

I'll have to check that one out lol. I'm always looking to add new tools to the garage! What did you pay for that Sunex? How long have you owned it?

I've owned it long enough that I don't remember where or when I bought it initially. Ten years ago? Then within the last few years the ratchet got lost. Boy was I pissed! When found it on Amazon I paid whatever they were charging just because I know how useful it had been.

That’s awesome! I’m going to grab one of those!

Dang! That's unfortunate! Snap-on has amazing tools but come with the hefty price tag. Do you have T bits from Snap-On? Curious to know what those cost! Thanks for your comment!

Brodyllc made me laugh😂

This is what is comes with: (1) compact flex head ratchet driver, (1) 4 in. extension, (1) 1/4 in. adapter, (11) torx bits, (2) slotted bits, (3) Phillips bit sizes, (13) hex bits, (3) Pozidrive bits. Detailed below: Torx bits: T6, T7, T8, T9, T10H, T15H, T20H, T25H, T27H, T30H, T40H, Slotted bits: SL4, SL5.5, Phillips bit: PH1, PH2, PH3, hex bits: H1.5, H2, H2.5, H3, H4, H5, H6, H7, H8, H1/8 in., H5/32 in., H3/16 in., H1/4 in., Pozidrive bits: PZ1, PZ2, PZ3

Cody, first of all thanks for the comment! I'm a hobbyist/DIYer so the stakes aren't very high for me when I use most tools but I have noticed the quality of the few ICON tools I own compared to my other HF tools. I used to buy DeWalt, GearWrench, and some of those other bigger name brands based solely on "everyone says they are good." As the years have gone by I realized that, for most of my needs, Harbor Freight tools will do just fine and save me a pretty penny. But for instance, for the minor electrical stuff that I do around my house, I still buy something better like Klein because the stakes are higher than me using as HFT screwdriver. It's awesome that you have found such value in this ICON tool when you have so many other "better" brands in your toolbag! I appreciate your feedback on the stress that the head feels when using it for some tougher twists and definitely food for thought! Please like, share, and subscribe to my channel!

I love this set, HF warranty is the best, don't worry if you feel stress or if it breaks, just take it in and they will give you another set no questions asked, well except looking up your phone number to see that you actually have proof of purchase in their system. Icon has won me over, after Knipex screwed me over with honoring their warranty, the shipping to their factory cost me as much as the tool cost, which they don't reimburse you for, the only thing the Knipex tool still worth the price due to unmatchable quality is their Cobra pliers, most of the other tools have a Icon similar tool for almost half the price.

@@Zhcwu While I’m certain I don’t have the receipt anymore I’ll make sure to keep it in the future. Even if it broke I’d happily buy another! Not sure there’s a ton of Knipex replicas in Icons line. I use a set of cobras and the pliers wrench. Only other two Knipex products I keep on me are the wire strippers and twin grips. Never had a better pair of wire strippers from all the big brands. The twin grips are great but engineer and the rebranded pair by vampliers do the same thing. There are other extraction style pliers out as well but have loved these. I’m impressed with the kit even if it’s the only icon tool I own currently. I’m not opposed to trying some others but not really anything I don’t already own in the line by another brand.

Thanks for your comment! I have yet to use the warranty for any HF product (I'm a DIYer so I don't use the tools to the extreme) but I'm glad to know that the process is quite simple from what you're saying! I've had warranty issues with other products where, like you said, after shipping and stuff it's better just to buy new. I took the advice of someone who posted on one of my other HF unboxing videos where they said to just have all your digital HF receipts in a folder in your email. So, if I ever need a receipt, I'll have it ready.

@codythompson9035 Be sure to ask for your digital receipts from now on and then keep a folder in your email for them! That way you always have them readily available should you need it. I started doing this after another viewer suggested it.

Definitely!!! It’s great to get some good tools at a great price.

lol you are not paying for a membership at harbor freight for a "right to buy". it's to get discounts and if you purchase there often, it pays for itself. harbor freight tools are actually pretty good depending on the tools.

@@678friedbed What it REALLY IS,, Since people pay for the little club,, they will shop there more often to get their "money's worth".. It's called psychology and it's been in play for a long time.. YOU are a perfect example.... Most of the tools in that pile are already broken,, even those that haven't been used...

I agree! Nothing wrong with the tools. It’s not like I’m working on an aircraft with them.

@@GothamDIYandMore You seem confused.. Pretty standard for someone that thinks HFT is a good place to buy tools... I also see that my comment telling the truth about club buying has been deleted...

Not confused at all. We don’t have to agree and that’s perfectly fine. You and I might have different needs or expectations from the tools we need. I do hobby things with my tools so I don’t need high price tags with high precision.

Absolutely! I regret not getting it sooner! I’m excited to see all the benefits and goodies this year. Please be sure to like, share, and subscribe to my channel!

It worked great. @@GothamDIYandMore

Sorry for the delay! I’m not sure for a plasma cutter since my “heavy duty” use for my compressor is a Brad nailer, which isn’t heavy duty use at all. Lol

Thank you!

Oh man that’s unfortunate! Sorry to hear that! By chance have you tried to reach out to them? I’d like to know what the warranty process is like.

Thanks for the comment and for watching! HF has great prices and products but sometimes lacks in information. Hope you can subscribe to my channel! 🙏🏽

Thank you!

Thanks bro!!
