I dared my 1st year apprentice to prove his aldi voltage test screwdriver on a 1000v ac circuit. He is still with us, it lit up and he said he may have felt a minute tingle from it but it was hard to tell. So I guess thats a pass
I call cheap tools ‘beaters’ they deffo serve a purpose as we all need tools to open tins with, pry things with that it doesn’t matter if they break or bend. Ok for household type stuff, I’d never pull them out at work on a job but they’re worth buying at that price for sure!
definitely agree. gotta have those beaters👍🍻
Like you said always buy what you can afford. Cheap set for apprentices is ok to start off with to get to using tools. But there’s apprenticeship loans and most places will have sales with apprentice deals and discounts
This is such a good channel, gets better and better! 👏
thanks mate. I appreciate the feedback.👍🍻
I’d go the needle nose for switchboard work because they’re cheap and won’t get used that often.. but the crescent ones are cheap and 1000v aswell
I’m going to carry the needle nose and see how they go. If I use it enough I’ll be looking to grab something more substantial
You can get anything at Aldi, love that place.
Got my son a set of these for his pre apprenticeship course
Love these screwdrivers. I like them more than my Milwaukee set. Only problem is the flat blades gets bent up and then you cant use them to fit off anymore
I'm a big fan of Knipex too
Definitely not a bad price and even comes with a lunch box. Haha
😂😂 not sure if my sandwiches will fit, but I’ll try.
@@AddictedtoTools haha.
what's your beef with the test pen? I've had a cheap Aldi socket set in the van for 7 years and only just bought a better set recently. Saved me so many times during and after my apprenticeship
I use a multi meter. I’m not trusting a test pen from aldi with my life
Hi great content!! Which are your favorite crosscut pliers? And do you recommend an apprentice starts off with traditional linesman pliers or is it ok to start off with crosscuts?
Hey Blair.
That’s a good question. Cross cuts take more time and practice to get used to. If your tradesman is patient you can go the cross cuts but you’ll be knicking the cables a lot. I still do it with them after a bit of practice(I haven’t used them full time). The safest bet is normal pinch cuts. But it’s all preference.
@@AddictedtoTools Thanks heaps for your answer, very helpful! I decided to go traditional - ordered Knipex 200mm VDE, got them on special for a pineapple so pretty stoked :)
It's a year on... did you ever do that VDE test?
If so, link please.
My screw drivers seem to always be used for every thing but there intended purpose, cheapo screwdrivers for dayzzz
aha everyday! pliers as a hammer, screwdriver as a door chock….
Dunno why people get so anal about someone using cheaper priced tools at work, yes fancy wiha screwdrivers feel better and are built better, but for everyday use of a screwdriver, I always go for the cheap insulated sets from Bunnings etc as they’re always going missing anyway.
there’s definitely a lot of people that don’t like the cheaper gear. sometimes it’s not too bad for certain jobs. I totally agree with your take on it👌🍻
Cross cuts are the only way to go
Hey bro, do you think you can do a IR test on it to see if its actually rated to what they say
Will be doing this soon hopefully. Have to get a hold of the tester. 👍
It isn't that bad to have these pliers; better to have extra ones just in case.
I use both the standard Marvel pliars and the Marvel cross cuts. Can get them Japanese made from AWM. Much difference between the wattmaster and the marvel?
Someone should test the Mark of the beast 'CE' Chinese Export Insulated 1000V rating VS a reputable brand Insulated 1000V ratings. Like see if they are actually life saving or not
I’m definitely hoping to get the gear to do this. Definitely worth trying. Hard to trust the cheaper stuff
👌😉🤘
Wiha all day...
Iv had these , the tips break
Just use the drill 😂
aha there’s always that one guy😂😂
Ele não mostra a ferramenta, nem a marca!?!
How does it not show the tool or a the brand? It’s in the video….
