Malco-Eagle-Grip-locking-pliers-public-service-announcment. Get them while you still can.
This is a public service announcement about the Malco Eagle Grip locking pliers. These are the BEST locking pliers on the market today and production is already winding and the factory will be closed at the end of the year….. about a month and a half from the time of this video. These are made in the original Petersen Vise Grip factory in Dewitt Nebraska. If you think you might be in the market for the best set of locking pliers money can buy, either today or down the road, you might want to buy some of these now while you still can. It won’t be long and these will be gone forever. Unless another tool manufacturer steps up and buy’s the factory, this tool will be gone for good.
The YouTube channel called “Project Farm” has done independent testing and found these to be the best locking pliers money can buy…. and I completely agree with his results. He does an excellent job with all of his tests. Project Farm locking pliers test video: https://youtu.be/X8BDMF8KKlQ
Cheap Generator Upgrades, How To, First Oil Change, Magnetic Dipstick, Oil Drain Hose
Today I show how to do the first oil change during the break in period on the new GENMAX GM9000iED dual fuel inverter generator and talk about a few budget friendly upgrades. I talk about engine break-in oil and why I use it. I also show a few new cheap and affordable products that will be installed to help prolong the life of the engine and make future oil changes easier with a magnetic dipstick and permanently installed oil drain hose. This 9000 watt inverter generator MIGHT be the only generator in this class to have any form of oil filtration whatsoever. I can’t be 100% sure, but I do believe none of the other brands who are selling inverter generators in the 7600 running / 9000-95000 starting category offer engine oil filtration. In this video I remove, inspect, clean, and reinstall the oil filtration screen. The screen did have some debris inside it but honestly, on this brand new engine, I wouldn’t be surprised to see even more garbage in the screen than it had.
I review the brand new XTOOL IP819 OBD2 diagnostic scan tool. This OBD2 scanner will read and reset all diagnostic trouble codes, (DTC) for every module in the vehicle. This scan tool also has full bidirectional control with actuation tests and special functions such as crank relearn and other system resets. This XTOOL model has basically the same features and functions as the XTOOL D8 but with a 1 inch smaller screen and slightly smaller battery, and of course a lower price.
This tool has a bunch of functionality for the price. If you’re looking for a scan tool with full bidirectional control but you don’t want to break the bank with a tool that has really fancy hardware (like a huge high resolution scree, wirless VCI, etc) then this tool might be for you.
Possible correction: In the video when I am reading the list of specs, when I get the spot where it says “processor: 2 G” I pause for a second and then I say something like “that must be a misprint, the system has 2 gigabytes of ram, and 32 gigabytes of storage”. Well, it is possible that the specs were correct and it actually meant the processor is 2 GHz (gigahertz) which is the speed of the processor. And if that is the case, then it has a newer, faster processor than previous XTOOL models. Sorry for the confusion.

The Brand New TOPDON TB6000Pro is an automotive (car or truck) 12 volt battery charger, battery tester, battery maintainer, battery desulfator, and power supply. The device is controlled via Bluetooth from you mobile device. (Apple or Android) This thing is super cool! The app gives you almost infinite control over the battery charger. It has more features and functions than we’ve ever had in the past on a battery charger or battery tester. The device can be controlled by itself, without the app if need be but with limited control. This is designed to be controlled from the TB6000Pro app. This device does battery testing, vehicle charge testing, and vehicle crank testing, along with “smart charging” and “quick charging”. The app also lets you create your own charging profile in “expert mode” instead of using a preset charging profile. All test results can easily be saved with the click of a button. This thing is REALLY Cool! I had no idea how cool this thing was until I actually started using it. If you’re looking for an automotive battery charger that is new with a bunch of modern technology built in, this might be the device for you! This just might be the newest, best and certainly the coolest battery charger on the market? what do you think? Leave a comment below…
GENMAX GM9000iED Best Dual Fuel Inverter Generator Great For Home Backup, or General Use
I purchased this GENMAX GM9000iED dual fuel generator to use as my emergency home backup power source. Of the three or four 9000 – 9500 watt inverter generators on the market (at the time of this video) I feel this model has the most features for the best price. (see below) I chose to use a portable generator for home standby electricity instead of a built-in Generac Guardian, QuietSource, or PowerPact stand-by because I have a fairly small house and I do not require more wattage than the 7600 running watts of this GENMAX. This generator will even start my home central air conditioning A/C condensing unit without a hard start, or Micro Air easy start kit installed. With our power grid in questionable condition, power outages can happen at any time, especially up here with our thunderstorms, lightning storms, ice storms, tornadoes, etc, etc. Even for those who live in hurricane country, this generator is perfect for those emergency grid down situations. Look what happened in Texas last year….. It never hurts to be prepared. For those who rely on a home oxygen concentrator or CPAP machine, extended power outages can be a real problem. Even those “Solar Generators” (basically a battery in a box) can probably only get you by for a few days, at best before you need real power to keep yourself going.
The specs of this generator are…. 120 / 240 volts. it has one 240 volt 30 amp outlet, one 240 volt 50 amp outlet, and two duplex 120 volt GFCI protected outlets. 458cc 4-stroke OHV engine produces 9000 peak watts and 7600 rated watts with 6.9 gallon fuel tank. As Low as 62 dBA Noise with 25%loading at 23 feet distance. CO DETECT Automatically turns off the generator when an unsafe level of carbon monoxide is detected. Low engine oil level shut off
The GENMAX GM9000iED compared to the “tool store” version of this generator…. The GENMAX is quieter! Its rated at 62dB, the tool store generator is rated at 67dB The GENMAX has a full digital multi meter showing power usage, the tool store generator only has an hour meter. The GENMAX has automatic engine choke with remote start, the tool store generator does not. The GENMAX has an engine oil filter screen, the tool store generator does not have any form of engine oil filtration. The GENMAX is dual fuel compatible (gasoline and propane), the tool store generator is only setup to burn gasoline. The GENMAX has a 50 amp receptacle built in so no adapters are needed when plugging in large RVs, The tool store generator does not have this. (And I don’t believe any of the other 9000 watt inverter generators on the market have it, either… at least at the time of this video)
The other 9000 – 9500 watt inverter generators are the DuroMax, the Predator, and the A-I Power. Although, I believe they all advertise the same 7600 running watts.
