MY NEW Veto Pro MB5B Compared to My OLD Tech MCT Blackout Advantages?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 мар 2024
- Just got my Veto Pro Pac MB5B in the mail that I purchased for the 2024 Spring Promotion. I know many people are wanting to take advantage of it and are trying to decide on the bag they want to buy.
I figured I'd go over the features of my New MB5B and talk about some of it's Advantages & Disadvantages to my Existing Bag the TECH MCT Blackout.
Maybe one of these bags are on your list and it will help with the decision. There aren't any Loadouts, those will come later on.
Let me know what you think, or if you have any questions in the comments below. Hope it Helps & Thanks for watching!

I do want to give Morgan a shoutout he answers and interacts quickly and with thought. More than just a emoji when the comment warrants it that is far better than most channel hosts where sometimes months later they may comment but by then it's fairly irrelevant. Good on you!
It’s my favorite part of the channel.. talking with Tool
Nuts like me 😂
I agree with you. Mr Morgan is super helpful. He’s just a super cool guy.!!! I try to be the same way on my channel.
@@THETIMINATORTHETOOLMAN you are pretty cool as well Timinator 👍👍
Could not agree with you more Matt
Love reading all the comments on these videos and Morgan is always there responding.
You can learn things with the other viewpoints people have on the topics.
Thank you everyone has a way of doing/saying something but even the most salty of people ussaly have something to learn and it's up to everyone to listen. Funny thing I never commented no subs to ANYONE not logged into a google account on my pc. Morgan, rayscand handyman exp got me to finally say my 2 cents and I'm glad I did. (Loke my privacy but no tin foil hats for me)
Like your idea about swapping one panel from one bag to another. Hope VETO is watching
It would be nice… sometimes it’s nice just to switch bags for cleaner/dirtier big jobs
Never thought I'd spend $250+ on a tool bag, but that spring promo was too good to pass up. I have an older Tech LC that I bought used, but wanted a slightly different config. The MCT and the MB5B are both really tempting, but I ended up with the TP-XXL blackout.
I was between that and the MB5B, I decided to go with it for the BackPack Option for just in case.
I think the XXL looks like a nice bag
We have both the MB5B and the Tech -MCT Blackout. You have done another excellent video which compares the capabilities of both bags, pro and con. You can also purchase the V-Swap 2-Bit and 4-Bit tool panels (they come in a paired set) that should work with the MB5B which can add useful space within the bag while leaving a large space for storing a drill in the front without having to sacrifice tool pouch space. Both bags are outstanding and with the additional accessories (such as a second set of the meter packet slide-in tool units), which could be used within the main bag as well, can hold a lot of hand tools! Keep up the great videos!
I haven’t even looked at the options for the V-swap yet since I haven’t used it. But definitely appreciate this advice 👍
I have a TPXXL coming on Thursday and am very excited to try out my first Veto. Thanks for the videos on these bags and pouches. It is crazy how many different bags and configurations they have.
I started to get the XXL, I was wanting to try a bag with meter pouches.. this MB5B is my first one with those.
My TP-XXL is coming Thursday as well! I've been on the fence for months on getting one, but after seeing the free bag with the spring promo, I had to pull the trigger.
@RileyKnifeandTool 👍👍.. I’m a sucker for the promotion every time. Sometimes I sell the free bag, sometimes I sell the bag I buy and keep the free one…. But I usually keep them both 😂😂
I like the layout and look but I think I would like the more rigid bag less floppy material. Another thing is like you said you have more space you'll use it then it's a 50lb bag. I have a saying around the jobsite "no more flat surfaces" they just collect stuff or people put their stuff all over it. Sadly I'm the one on the weekend that does cleanup duty most of the time and organizing for the upcoming week. Thoes who are self employed know first in last out and no real days off. The pride we pay!
I think the Tech MCT definitely is more Rigid.
I have really liked the MCT, The MB5B unlike my other Vetos has some work to do to convince just because of how much I’ve liked the MCT..
I just ordered the Tech MCT Blackout because I wanted something lighter than my Tech LC. I have a tendency to overload it and I fill it more at 56 than I did 10 years ago. I still like using my MB2 for my meters and such but am wanting to divide things up with the new SB-LD. I went with the bulk storage panel for the MCT to leave room for my impacts and such on one side.
It’s a very good bag. I had it as well. It basically the same as the one in this video with a different handle and those pouches.. but both are great 👍
These are the two bags I was losing sleep over getting for the spring promo. Glad I got the MCT.
It’s a good bag.. I don’t think you will be disappointed.
Both are nice, but I think I'd prefer the older one.
Excellent review. If I wanted to buy any of those, this would be a video I'd be looking for.
I may end up thinking that same thing. I was wanting to give one with Meter Pouches a shot and a backpack.
My older one has given me no issues that wasn’t my own fault 😂
@@MORGANSMaintenanceI'm 8 minutes in and it sounds like you are trying to find ways to like the new bag. It happens to all of us. Sometimes you need something new to appreciate what you have.
Very true… I think I will like the MB5B in a 2 bag system, but as a one bagger I have loved the Tech MCT Blackout. It’s really worked well for me, but it’s interesting to try new things from time to time.
I’m definitely not selling my old bag though…. Bo sold on the new one yet 😂
I don’t carry meter….but that side panel would be good for my little coffee flask and lunch box on the other side😅
@@richmondstar4354 😂… I’m actually going to be a grandpa soon and thought it would make a great diaper/bottle bag
The tech pac might surprise you. Mine is pretty heavy but it carries pretty nice. I don’t like putting it on but once it’s on I can carry it as long as needed. Only reason I am kinda thinking about the 5b is I like the single flap tool setup. Plus when I am going up on rooftops sometimes I can’t fit through the hatch with the tech pack on. Probably shouldn’t climb ladders with a heavy backpack but sometimes I forget the rope. lol.
I’m sure it’s a more comfortable backpack for sure. The cushioning on the Tech Pacs looks quite a bit more substantial than the MB5B.
I’ve been waiting to see if I can find a used one on Facebook sometime just to have for certain jobs.
@@MORGANSMaintenance I will make you a good deal on mine so I can finance a 5b. 😊.
I like that clip on the m12 i need that forsure!
I really like it on mine 👍
Nice new bag. I really like the option to pull oot the 2 side porches. And the backpack straps are nice to . Might save a trip or 2 back to the truck. You got a lot nice feature on that bag . Despite the fact it doesn't have the back panel. I don't think you'll miss it much. Thanks Morgan.
Yeah I think it will work well as a 2nd Bag with my tester stuff. Then use my smaller bag or MP pouches as my first Grab.
If I have to take them both, being able to have one be a backpack will be nice 👍
Logistics ; a battle you can never win ; but you can get much better at ! Well worth it ! I like the look of the 5B !
True… You can always get better at everything 👍👍
@@MORGANSMaintenance Even now , I still “ Post Mortem “ jobs and service calls ! Good to be honest with yourself about what went right and what went wrong !
@@chrisfyfe9212 we learn more from our failures than successes for sure 👍
Another great video, I'm ordering the MB5B, I love the side compartments. I'm an HVAC TAB guy and I have to carry a tachometer, multi meter, as well as some pressure measuring instruments, plus all my hand tools and socket sets. Right now I have the TP6B and attach my extra impact battery, tachometer, etc in zipper pouches attached to the d rings. Plus I have to carry an iPad. Looks like I could put everything in the MB5B without other bags hanging around everywhere while I'm climbing ladders with all my stuff.
It has several ways you can use it. I think it’s pretty versatile 👍👍
The Mb5b is the bag I was looking into with this promo that’s going on. Awesome video. Now I know which bag I’m going to get. Thanks Morgan
👍👍…. Glad I could help. The MCT will definitely hold more, but that’s not what I’m really going for.
Veto has so many good choices in bags, sometimes it is hard to decide, Joey. I have one for my inside Electrical(Pro-Pac XL) and one for my low-voltage Electrical(TP3B). Thanks, Russ, 29 years in the Electrical Trade.
The TP pouches are good pouches/small bags. You are right, it’s hard to decide and not question your every decision 😂
That's funny what you said about putting stuff in empty space, If I have an empty pocket best believe I'm gonna think of something to put in it or else it will drive me nuts😂
I know, that’s why my pouches are about the only thing that doesn’t get too heavy 😂
Love the MB5B! I use the MB as my main bag and my MCT as a secondary bag for tools I don’t use on every job. Great video as always 👍🏻
Also if you take the V swap panel off the front of the MB the installation driver fits in the bag perfectly even loaded with tools
Good to know on the Installation Driver 👍
Just like you pointed out I find it difficult to get longer ratchets and extensions out of the back pockets in my MB5B. I also have it loaded down pretty heavy. I love the appeal of everything being in one bag but man does it make it heavy.
That’s the way my MCT is. It’s great and I have about any tools I can possibly need… but it’s heavy.
I’ve being toying around with it still swapping panels, trying different things. I finally got my SBLD in, so I will hopefully start using it soon how I want.
Nice tool bags,,, if i had to pick one, i gotta go with the Tech MCT Blackout... nice upload.
It’s been my favorite bag so far… not sure if I will stay away from it long.
Thanks for the walkthrough. I currently use the Tech-MCT Blackout as well and want a second bag for larger items (DeWalt installation driver, some meters, soldering supplies, etc.) The MB5B looks decent and not too big - the straps are a very nice bonus. It'd be nice to have a Blackout version, but I'm going to check it out soon anyway.
You are welcome 👍
I’m sure the Blackout is right around the corner. I don’t mind Vetos standard color, but I do like the Blackout better.
I ordered my MB5B in the first couple hours of the promotion, thanks for the video!
You are welcome. I think it will be a good bag for me and what I’m doing.
I have friends that do nylon goods an can make Velcro adapters, thank you for share.
👍👍
The velcro is a easy fix get some velcro strips of each type or double sided velcro and make an adapter. I've done it with gluing the 2 types back to back or the double sided works better. The reason I'm sure is money I was looking at what pannels had cross compatability on the 29th to throw on orders to avoid shipping later but sadly not many were. I learned my lesson when I got my tp6b and wanted the bulk pannels but got it later and paid 40% in shipping over the cost of the item. Yea I'd make an adapter even my orange store has bulk velcro.
I actually was thinking of that double sided Velcro today… I was thinking it would be nice if you had a dirty jobsite bag and a clean space bag that you could just easily move you tools back and forth.
I ordered the Tech MCT Blackout/Buildout with the Tool and Laptop/Tablet panels (which can also hold meters) as my Tier-1 choice. I'm going to borrow a page from your book and attach a MP1X (arriving today!) with my most-used tools to it; OR I will do the same with the TP-LC+MP1X and send the Tech MCT to my brother for his birthday. I will finish an initial loadout this weekend, then decide.
I'm still awaiting the two bonus bags. If I keep the Tech MCT, I will send my brother the nicer / bigger of the TP-LC or SB-LD.
So far the Tech MCT Blackout has been my favorite bag. I don’t know if I will be able to stay away from it… but hey it’s Spring Promotion time to try a MB5B 😂
I haven’t got my free bag yet either
Great review
Appreciate it buddy 👍👍
Great Info! Good point's. I do handyman work and can only afford one Veto (barely) and am having trouble deciding but saw instantly with this video the size difference but mainly the MCT blackout has the tool storage on the backside and that's what I need. Why did you choose this over the Pro Pac TP versions with the zip over covering?
The Tech Pacs are just too big for what I want to use. It will end up weighing too much, and I won’t need the backpack aspect of it or the MB5B often. I like the option of removing it on the MB5B.
There was a Tech PAC MC that is a little closer to the size of the MB5B. I looked at that, but I still liked the idea of not having to be a backpack all the time.
I say all this having not used a Tech Pac (it’s just my best guess from watching videos, etc) that’s the one downside for Veto for me. Not a lot of in person viewing before buying and not many people in my area use them for me to see theirs.
And it’s for what I do, a Tech Pac is going to be the right fit for many people for sure.
Thanks again for the content !
I wonder if you know if the fluke T6 fits in the meter pocket of the TP-XXL?
Tanks in advance!
I haven’t had the TPXXL so I’m not sure. I would think it would be pretty similar to the MB5B. Maybe someone else that has one will see your question that can answer for sure.
I was considering the MB5B, but I'm boing for the Tech Pac MC black.
Yeah I think that’s a good option too. I won’t use the backpack function that much.. if I was that would have been more in the mix.
@@MORGANSMaintenance I honestly won't either, we mainly work off of carts. I just think it's a nice option. However, I don't like the straps when not in-use. I'm hoping to figure out something to tidy them up. It will be my main bag and I work out of a pouch. I wonder if anyone sells doubt sided hook velcro, so you can swap those panels.
@@justinkase1360 I think you can get some on Amazon… I’m going to try it.
MB5B I had it temporary and returned it, for upgrading my old Tech MCT to the Tech MCT Blackout. MB5B would be perfect, if the 2 side Meter pouches were detachable/modular. MB5B overall is too bulky and not perfectly proportion (to transport in the field to/from), it's essentially a Tech MCT with 2 small side Meter Bags (that are fixed and not detachable).
Perfect Pairing is to keep the Tech MCT Blackout and simply upgrade it (to attach to either side) buy 1 or 2 MB2 Meter Bags! Tech MCT > MB5B, the Tech MCT is the perfect/ultimate modular setup, for modularity of you having the flexibility and smaller size footprint to swap between 1-2 MB2 Meter Bags (which clip-on both sides of the Tech MCT D-Rings).
Last, Veto just released the currently SOLD OUT Tech TECH-LCT Blackout Build-Out VPP10696
Appreciate your thoughts and you sharing your experience. I agree the Tech MCT blackout has been my favorite bag so far.
The MB5B will have to really perform to win me over. I’m not going to use it as my main bag though.. so will have to see if it works out for how I plan to use it. I may end up like you and still prefer the MCT.
Thanks again 👍
I sure like the looks of these veto bags. I went with the milwaukee packout 15 inch tote . As it works with my packout stack. It has its pros and cons. However with that said it does look like the veto black out is better laid out.
It has more room for hand tools for sure. The packout stuff is pretty nice. I usually don’t do stacks but just carry individual ones.. so hooking my toolbag on wouldn’t benefit me as much… that’s the only reason I haven’t went that way.
It seems like you could buy some adhesive backed hook and loop (Velcro), stick it together to make it double sided, and use it as an adapter to swap the panels between the bags. That may also make it easier to take out if it had less contact surface area. Veto really goes heavy with the Velcro. I'm sure you could get away with much less if you wanted to swap on a regular basis.
Good idea.. I figure they may even sell some double sided. It fits in there snug enough, that in all honesty I think it would be fine without it.
Thanks 👍
Hey morgan as always love your videos! Im looking into being a handy man on the side. Would you mind doing a video on bigger tools and your thoughts plus what you use often? SDS, table saw, Light tower, etc. Im just looking for more info about some bigger tools to invest in eventually. Thanks Morgan!
I can see some layout loadouts of bigger tools. Call it a spinoff of the guess the trade
I will ponder on it. There are some tools anyone would need… but there are definitely some that it depends on what you end up doing the most.
I would for sure on specialty stuff just buy as jobs present themselves and see what jobs you end up doing. With word of mouth business you will end up doing more of the same type jobs “like a specialist” in a way. Those people are referring you for the someone asking about the same work you did at their house
That or after doing many things you will find out you like doing some things and would rather not do others… you can then focus the tools on what you want to do.
I will be thinking about the anyone tools and see if I can come up with something
Question, since you were talking about weight. Do you carry individual tipped drivers for a specific reason vs having a single driver with different bits? I saw that you had several insulated screwdrivers. I know Klein has insulated drivers with bits. Is it because the tips are flush with the bit for tight spaces or you’d rather not carry another little case that hold the bits?
I usually swap the insulated ones into my MP Pouches when I use them. In my pouch I like dedicated screwdrivers because it’s easier to switch drivers than bits.
I normally only run a multi screwdriver in my Service Bag.
Morgan’s maintenance video is nice to come home to in its self but add a veto side by side and I’m very happy.
Great video Joey I’m still flip flopping about what I wanna do but now that tech mct is added to my consideration list.
I do have a question about it.
Front to bag how deep is it on the base?
I’m considering if I would get it to add stealthmount feet to be able to add it to my rolling packout.
So if I turn it side ways in a ideal world it would not be wider then the packout “ammo can” tool box
Is that some thing you also own so you could compare ?
Know it’s weird to buy a new bag and immediately screw something to it lol
But really need that option.
I’m going to email you some photos, but the base for the MCT Blackout is about 7”x9” and will fit on a 1/2 organizer which is the same as an ammo can.
Just seen the mail. Thank you very much. Yes it looks like it will work just fine.
And an other great example of how helpful this channel is
@@robholland5925 👍
I ordered mine the day before and you got your before me! My bag comes Thursday and pannels Friday or Saturday so I don't even get to use mine right away. I did have a tracking number from them but dosent say what it is and it's 10 lbs might be sbld already on Friday?.!? Here's to hoping
Yeah I got mine in like two days… no word on the SBLD for me yet though. Every other promotion I got both bags at the same time.
decisions decisions! trying to decide if i want to upgrade from MCT to MCT blackout. Or do i keep my mct and go for a blackout xd and pass on my mp6b or the new sb ld to an apprentice? After watching this i am now considering the mb5b now.
I would like to see veto pro make their v swap panels more interchangeable between bags. I imagine that their sku and inventory management is tough between all the different bags and vswap panels.
It’s always hard to decide. I liked my MCT a lot as well, I think the MCT Blackout is better, but I bought mine to get the TP-LC and already had someone wanting to buy my MCT… so it was kinda a free upgrade for me. Definitely don’t need both of them because they are really similar.
I have ordered the tester version of the MB5B, but also ordered some V-swap panels, so likely got the wrong ones!! They are due to arrive today, doesn't say anything is on back order, so presumably the SB-LD is arriving with it. Will be interesting to see what loadout you end up with.
This is the first time my promo bag didn’t come at the same time. They must have given to many out to these ambassadors 😂
I haven’t even looked at the panels yet to see the options. I need to check those out.
@@MORGANSMaintenance Those pesky RUclipsrs with all their demands! I now have my bags, all arrived together. The two V-swap panels I ordered are compatible with the MB5B, with the Velcro matching.
Part numbers seem to be different between UK and USA. The front small panel is for the TP-XD Blackout and Tech-XXL, in the UK it is part number AX3639, USA it is VPP10285. The tool panel is also from the same bags and is part number AX3637 in UK and VPP10287 in USA. It is shorter than the MB5B panel, so I don't think it is quite the right one, but it does fit in up to the height of the press studs and then there is a couple of inches of Velcro showing through at the top.
Can you explain us what is that nice protección with bigger than original hanging hook for your impact driver M12?? Thanks

Thanks for all the reviews (except flip sockets, I think I’m flip socketed out, lol).
I’ve gotten into Veto stuff in just the last year, and I only have one complaint. Their model naming is just bonkers, and I never really know what’s what. I’m sure there is a method to the madness, but it’s lost on me…
I know what the letters stand for, I’m not sure if the numbers are versions or directly deals with number of slots.
On the TP (Tool Pouch) they went from TP3, then 4, then 5, which is by number, but there is also that number of screwdriver type slots I think. Plus after that they went XL, TPLC, TPXXL, TP6B… so that throws a wrench in the numerical order 😂
Basically I’m saying I don’t know either 😂
But some Velcro strips and put the sticky sides together and place in-between panel and bag then you can swap panels and no problems.
I had thought about that… just get some double sided Velcro. Good tip, Thanks 👍
Dang that’s nice! How’d you get it so quick!
I know, I got it in like two days… not my free bag though, don’t have it yet
I am really leaning towards the mct because i have a buddy wanting the sbld and we can split cost just wish the mct had backpack straps
Currently running TP5B which is a nice bag. Just could use a little more room
That’s a good way to use the Promotion and split the cost.
You can fit a lot of tools in the MCT for sure.
What's the hammer you have in the Tech MCT? Looking for something about that size for my MCT.
It’s the Wiha Electricians hammer.

I had to end up getting on Amazon UK because it’s pretty expensive on Amazon US.
Looks like it would play well with my TP6B !
Yeah I think once I get that feee bag the SB-LB it will be a god 2 bag system. It is a lot like the TP6B
@@MORGANSMaintenance I also operate a two bag system ( 90% of the time , backed up by the 1/2 width Milwaukee Packout parts boxes , If I know the exact Quroum needed , just a couple of the Veto zippered parts bags . Sadly ; as we both know , often the “ Battle Plan “ doesn’t survive contact with the enemy !
@@chrisfyfe9212 yeah… it’s almost never what you 100% expect… you can get close, but not 100%
What is your opinion on open top tool bags ? I recently bought a ot xl bag from veto since I'm used to running an open top tool bag for easy access and visibility.
I had the OTMC.. one of my first Vetos and liked it. I just personally prefer the look of a closed bag is why I go for those.
There are advantages and disadvantages to both. There is something to be said about the time of unzipping etc… so I see the advantage of open, but I like the protection of closed.
Ultimately for me I just like the look of closed though.
@@MORGANSMaintenance ah okay i see, I thought maybe there was an advantage to close top that I wasn’t seeing other than water protection which I don’t worry about because I never have my bag out in the rain. Also, do you not pack carpentry tools in your bags? Squares, full size hammers, torpedo levels, etc? Where do you usually store those items? I see that your bag mostly has electrical tools in them even though from my understanding you do lots of general construction. Thanks for the reply ! Your channel has become my most watched recently
@@RobertoDominguez-cj6fu I keep a torpedo level in my bag.. but all my other tools I keep in my truck. I typically use my tool bags for service call type jobs.
I generally just load up all the tools for those type of jobs from my truck using my pouches or vest. That lets me just get out the just tools I need, and keeps me from leaving anything on job sites.
If you haven’t seen my truck loadout, it shows quite a bit of it. The newest one is Part 3
That velcro is weird, very puzzling, more like a V-no-can swap. I have the bag known simply as the XL. I have too many tools in the XL so I wanted to have smaller task specific bags. I am just a DIY guy and I find myself going out to the garage to fetch tools out of this bag rather than grabbing the bag because its too heavy. Two other things I don't like about the XL is the two sides, like you mentioned. The other is it is difficult to get tall tools out of the back row because they hit the very stiff top. I have been waiting for the spring sale to purchase a TP-LC, but its tier 2 and I don't want the DP3. So I picked the TP-XD blackout because it seemed like the closest in size to the TP-LC and Tier 1. I figure the SB-LD is pretty similar a TP-LC without a flap with the bonus area on the back. The SB-LD will be my electrical work bag. I still need a low voltage bag or some extra V-swap panels because I'm not dragging that stuff around anymore unless I'm going to use it.
I had the XL and didn’t care for it because I kept knocking it over… the base seemed small for the amount of tools you could put in it. I definitely liked the LC better for the outside pockets and the base/bag ratio was better.
The XD looks like a good option and I think the SBLD is going to be great with the space in the back. I do wish it had a cover just as a preference. I like the look of closed bags better 😂
@@MORGANSMaintenance Yes, definitely wish it had a cover. The SB-LD is hopefully going to live inside a bucket boss bag until I'm ready to use it, unfortunately.
I'm new to veto, but one of the things that annoys me a bit is that there are no internal dimensions for the bag cavities. Seeing as how you have it, do you know the dimensions for the main cavity on the mb5b? You comment about wanting to swap panels between your too bags. However, Veto released a "technician panel" for the big tech pac that's a separate panel that can sit inside the bag and act as a second panel. It isn't held by velcro, so you can grab it and go. I wouldn't be surprised if they bring it to more of their backpacks. I originally ordered the big tech pac blackout, but after seeing this new mb5b, I am on the fence about purchasing this bag as well. I don't run multiple bags for each setup. The electrical journeyman I worked with has a main tool bag, then ONE secondary bag that doesn't leave the van but contains larger, less used tools.
Rough Tape Measurements (it varies here and there as it tapers) 9-1/2”W x 14”H x 5”D…. The panel is 8-1/2”W x 14”H.
@@MORGANSMaintenance Thank you. Hope veto includes inside dimensions in the future.
@@wackyweyland8857 I know, that’s the hardest thing about deciding is not being able to see them in your hands.
I actually expected this bag to get bigger than my MCT and it’s really pretty close
@MORGANSMaintenance I saw another comment for an Hvac loadput of the mb5b. One commenter said, "You can't avoid overloading your veto. It's only a matter of time." 😅
@@wackyweyland8857 I agree 😂
The MB5B will probably end up being my minimalist bag with just enough essentials to troubleshoot and make some repairs...I too tend to overload one of my other veto bags. The MB5B might prevent me from doing that... who knows.
I’ll probably end up overloading 2 bags 😂
@MORGANSMaintenance I guess at this point I have no option but to make it my minimalist bag lol...let's just say this bag, up close and personal, is "unique ", obviously you already know this...truly a nice bag though, and being a Veto I'll get many years of use.
@@Neto-1984 I thought so when I saw it as well. It’s a pretty versatile bag that you can use many ways. With the bag lasting a long time, even if you want to change the use later it has options
I wish the mb5b didn’t have the side pouches I would’ve bought one
You mean the Meter pouches? It’s one of the reasons I wanted one.
I think the Tech Pac MC is a similar size (smaller than bigger ones) but still backpack style without the Meter Pouches.
Never had it, but I have watched some videos on it. It has two sides like my Tech MCT.
😎⚒️😎⚒️😎
👍👍👍
They reversed the panels Velcro so you couldn’t do that. They want you buying both bags and just not the panels
They may have, I’m not sure. I also think they changed Velcro types recently to one that is supposed to be better at releasing. They may had to reverse it for some reason because to that.
I ordered some Velcro that I can make two sided. I’m going to see if put it between the two
Nice set-up ... I think before long Veto needs to start up a support group Another good demo Joey ... Thx
😂😂.. very true. The spring promotion almost gets me every time… they know what they are doing.
@@MORGANSMaintenance veto pro quality gets us in, the promo keeps us coming back year after year.
That's what happens when your prices are set in stone we beg for any reason to feel like we got a deal.
@tomlin03 the bags last so long they have to entice you to buy another. We never buy the next one because “we need to”… it’s always because “we have to… it’s free” 😂
@@MORGANSMaintenancein my local, apprentices rotate companies/contractors in June as they progress. In the last 2 years I have started a ritual to pass down a veto bag to one that sorta stands out as a tool junkie or needs a bag. Been an awesome way to not hoard bags and keeps the wife/boss on board with me buying "another bag"
