BREAKING INTO my VAN + Milwaukee tool give away | Thomas Nagy

[@jamesa6091]

I spend my Tuesday night having a few beers watching a video about vans security. What a time to be alive.

[@janne_kekalainen]

The irony, first rants about how bad the locks are, then proceeds to break said lock after locked himself out. I guess that proves the point.

[@peterpain6625]

That lock would almost break if you look angry at it i bet ;)

[@ICEJosh1987]

I dont think you understand Irony

[@Tinker001]

Next video... Tom loses what's left of his mind after doing the same with the new locks fitted.

[@Biela2008]

And he didn't even tried hard :O

[@bbbbbb9158]

[ ] irony

[@LordClunk]

The close up at 5:59 made me spit my coffee over my desk.

[@artisanelectrics]

I’ve been fitting a Lutron RA2 Select system this week it’s awesome

[@elecsmartelectriciansltd1254]

Gotta say I’ve watched your videos for a while now and see you’re a real life /real world sparks ! It’s too easy to be critical from a viewers perspective and top marks for putting yourself out there, keep up the good work Tom !

[@alantorrance6153]

Your ethic of photographic copy of the test results for EICR is a GOOD one. Keep on with it!

[@brucewrobak9065]

I put super loud sirens inside the van connected to the security system, the thought was if they get in disorient the mfers. Your still my third favorite electrician after myself and son and I enjoy your videos. BWR

[@rayc1503]

Nagy's got his own camera man. Geezer you must be earning top dollar, smashed it bruv. 😜

[@cumberland1234]

Megger testers are highly recommended, which model depends on what you need. I have a 1730 which is a bit over the the top for me and am yet to use the earth rod 3 wire test. I believe the 1731 is he updated version, and the 1741 which has some new fangled loop test. The 1731 and 1741 also take rechargeable batteries which can be recharged in the machine.

[@cumberland1234]

The only thing I didn’t like was the leads that come with it, the probes don’t fit my kewtech adaptors - there is a way which involves connecting the probe end into the machine and using the other end in the kewtech adaptors but instead of messing I bought a set of megger leads for the 1500 series which work fine with the adaptors.

[@cliveramsbotty6077]

shout out and respect to pb plumber for his 'novanber' campaign, he put a lot of effort into that, everyone should give back a small effort in return - sign up get on board!!!

[@UberAlphaSirus]

Have you got a link?

[@gotmyheadinthesand]

Petition has expired now, not enough people cared it turned out which is a shame

[@bbean80]

I told everyone about it , added a Novanber sticker to my van.. no one listened 😩

[@GregsMowing]

Saw on skill builder his vivaro was broken into. Small plastic shield didn’t do much. Sussex installations upgraded all the locks and sensors. Worth a watch if you haven’t already.

[@kearneyboy]

The Vans are looking Top notch Tom. Lots of Automation crossing over from the industrial sector now, it won't be long before we see either wireless or cabled field bus throughout all new builds.

[@fearghalwade8925]

Brilliant vid tom, always enjoy your videos just watched the one you recently uploaded of the massive tv, carlift and forklift. Keep up the good work and the videos!! don't let the scumbags get you down!!

[@artisanelectrics]

Fluke 1664FC is what I’ve got they are awesome

[@CiaranTrivium]

Fluke multitester unit is brilliant bit of kit!

[@bikerchrisukk]

Very well put together video, nice one, funny too! I've seen those kinetic switches, clever stuff, I wonder how many times before they stop though and then how much to buy another? That IoT power switches, hmm, not sure some devices take kindly to having the power killed?

[@7chappers]

Kewtech kt65DL. Great bit of kit

[@lukedyte3969]

is the kt65 worth it over the kt64? its about another £100?

[@rayc1503]

Defo I 2nd that. Great piece of kit 👍

[@7chappers]

I had a KT64 before. That was fine. The only thing on the KT65 I use extra is the memory function but it also has earth spike test and phase rotation which I have used a couple times. Personally I would say yes

[@berenlea486]

I know it's a bit late but try putting pnumatic dead bolts or solenoid dead bolts on the insides of all the doors at the corners then link it to a key switch so they have to grind through the door to get in

[@wearelivinginthematrix5367]

This guy is a legend

[@dangunter6534]

Love the work Tom thanks for putting in advice for newbies to the game I'm fresh in and green and advice is great as some going alone is not easy so thanks for the tips and advice from lessons learnt,looking forward to watch nagy empire grow

[@paulmorrey733]

Cheers Tom

[@paul-xciv]

The underlying wireless technology is probably zigbee or z-wave protocol, one of them is a mesh system, can't remember which.

[@quintendewit3220]

I love the rambling

[@AcidicTom2258]

I love your videos tom iam an apprentice of one year and i find your videos so helpful😁those tools wouldn’t go a miss 😅

[@Mr.M1STER]

That Aurora stuff is exciting.

[@marcopetrillo6867]

Nice to watch some content overlap in to the IoT. It's a nice idea, with reference to the socket outlets being remotely controlled. In the (probably distant) future it's likely that these will be standard in one form or another, still think it's early days and the tech is still finding its way, as to exactly what implementation will become the de facto. Really interesting area.

[@The12pottera]

love your content :) Keep up the good work. also loving the news vans!

[@lukedyte3969]

Not sure if it's any good but my dad uses the Kewtech KT64DL Tester :)

[@richardwash6678]

Good video Tom, they still make me smile. 👍

[@jo5hua]

AH my van got busted into again the other night ...good job i havnt had chance or the money to replace anything so they was very disappointed. First time they peeled the side door ..second tome they fobbed my van would happily show the CCTV of them

[@DaddyBear3000]

Fuckers! Put it on KZbin and share the link.

[@soundcode0246]

If you have the CCTV video upload it to your channel

[@CorvusCoroneCanisLupusSawel]

Think you should post it publicly , mate. Someone will know the wanker$

[@rayc1503]

I hope they die of ass-rabies. The f**kin scrum. They're the total underbelly of society.

[@Blitterbug]

Do it.

[@garymckeown4278]

Hey Tom, re testers I have been testing and inspecting for over 20 years, we have had all makes from Chaviano to Seaward (yeah seaward did a mains tester 1557 if I remember correctly), and by a country mile Megger in my opinion is the best. I would recommend the MFT 1731 or 1741. Great vid as always.

[@seanmac2384]

Twice my van has been done, cleaned me right out 😭 now I plod around with shit tools replacing things very slowly 😂

[@craigtonge455]

Tester - I use a Martindale ET 4500, i love it. Its a good bit of kit at a good price. Although i do not the data transfer function at all!

[@bazcbrown]

Have you had a chance to look at Lutron ?

[@SME_Ste]

Best way to prevent the peeling door break in is to either weld or bolt some extra steel plate inside the door at the top half. Stops the door being able to bend in half.

[@underwaterdick]

Very lucky you knew how to break that crap lock off! Couldn't even make it up, such a funny video. Thanks for sharing this advice with us all

[@Cruzziedickinson]

Deff give the kewtech a try mate great piece of kit

[@YouTubestopsharingmyrealname]

7:58 "I was actually given the wrong type of ladder..."

[@jamiemoss5983]

my dads is a plaster but his Peugeot partner van hasn't got broken in to yet and key fob still works but he's got it duct taped together

[@donnierobertson3088]

Nice

[@jamesalexw]

Hey Thomas, when you fit a system like the Aurora what do you with the traditional light switches? Do you just hard wire the lighting circuit to the fuseboard, or do you hide the original switches? Cheers and keep up the videos!

[@thomasnagy]

remove the light switch, join the switch and feeds together then fit the wireless switch onto the backbox. There is a new house building company which is fitting this stuff into their new homes and they are not having any light switches anywhere; its all wirefree, so they just run a switch wire from the fuseboard straight to every light fitting. not sure i like that way of doing it as there is no fall back if you wish to revert to a traditional switch but hey ho...

[@zedman442]

That door lock is absolutely pants! Thule too. Anyway good luck with the giveaway.

[@drpipe]

Tom the Video was great and have to say looked like your Camera mans shooting sharp as Feck 👍 top marks Guys

[@Aidan-LM02]

Tom you should get a box in the van that bolts to the floor and you can lock it and it is strong metal and you put all your tools in there and hopefully they won’t nick the tools as my neighbors van got broken into with just a flat head screwdriver #transit life and luckily he had that box his tools didn’t get stolen only a screw box did

[@geekrulz1]

If you whant a new Megger try the fluke multimeter and Megger combo. Could be handy for you 2

[@leefpm]

Slipping out the C*** word quickly covered by client at 6:45 ROFLMOA... nice van set up 👍🏻. Just wish we didn’t have so many theiving “ clients “ about 😂

[@Matt4jackson]

Another brilliant video! Thx

[@SwordQuake2]

What did Dave say at 7:59?

[@glass-tek]

Being a Locky dg repair man door fitter gotta love your vids

[@Aidan-LM02]

And those faraday pouches are brilliant

[@ianbutherway]

We do instrument calibration, so work with lots of different makes. Get a Megger!!

[@ptopping2012]

Greetings from Manchester....... Love your videos..... keep up the great work...😁📽️✌️👍👊🏍️🔌

[@fearghalwade8925]

Megger multifunction is the only way to go, brilliant quality and easy to use++

[@YGee3Mx]

I use the kewtech KT63 and it’s a really good bit of kit😊

[@rhysslater8127]

Great humour after what has (unfortunately) happened. Great video as per 👍

[@dann756]

We had something similar with a 2015 transit. Brand new, 3 weeks old, 2000 miles with a full custom set of drawers and shelves. The van was found parked in a nearby lidl with front windows intact but missing drivers door handle and a hole In the rear sliding panel. They used, I assume, a core bit that literally cut through the whole lower lock and pried open the top. Even though the van was worth 22k they only took what was inside. A diesel generator, a bunch of brand new Makita drills and a Husqvarna disk cutter. The damage and loss cost 4k including an excess for the door but I guess all the equipment was sold for pennies.

[@woody9916]

Get yourself a van vault as a second line a defence in the back of your van 👍🏼

[@HandyKindaGuyUK]

Best advice. I did exactly that, which is why I'm after the giveaway. Feel for you tom, it is an strange concept in London (I'm from Wales) that you will eventually be broken into. Just sad times. Take care dude.

[@abanning51]

Good job you already knew how to break in👌

[@andy44646]

Always put your deadlocks on I guess. I’ve got the same type of van. Great video

[@AvroVulcanXH607]

Love the editing in these videos! Very nice

[@Biela2008]

6:10 That seems like been made form cast ZINC. Would've been insult to injury if they opened it by melting it with a pluming torch. (See the LockPickingLawyer's vids about it)

[@gb-jk7sx]

Hi Thomas, just putting this out there I've work out my van doing engineering for last 14 year straight never once has my van been screwed over! I live in Glasgow

[@pittorivers906]

Ok but that's just an anecdote, you may never have had anything happen to your van, but that's not how statistics work.

[@UberAlphaSirus]

Get cctv on the vans. I had a 4 camera dvr running on my old baby. And a shit dash cam. And a wifi swivel cam when parked up overnight at home.They must do solid state dvrs now. Back then i had 12v battery bank seperate from starter battery for the subs and security on split charge.

[@darraghtierneymtb2116]

Armadlocks, fitted them to three of our vans and they are the strongest lock I've ever seen. They are dear but worth it

[@Shaunoconnor711]

If you double click the lock button on your key fob it disables the keyless entry on your vans, just a handy tip if you’re at work and don’t want to be putting your keys in pouches all the time!

[@Shaunoconnor711]

And also, I only use Milwaukee so I’d love to be entered into the draw!

[@wayneandvon]

Love the fluke 1662 really reliable and great functionality. Also try van vault outback. The buggers wont get in my van vault.

[@sanders3219]

Take a look at Fluke for the tester

[@bradh2066]

Sweet vid 😊

[@PaulL42654]

Love the editing on this

[@tristanpatterson3843]

Wow, I sometimes can't even be fucked going back out there if I'm a bit unsure If I locked mine or not.

[@ghspaelectricalservices9296]

Brillemt love the fact you had to break in to your own van

[@andrewkennedy5113]

hi tom when will you be giving the tools away

[@richardgriffiths2019]

5.41 best bit

[@TheRocky3211]

5:42 split second where you glance at your key :)

[@harrymcough5545]

Any good tool bags to carry around power tools

[@harrymcough5545]

Would rather a tool bag that doesn’t advertise how expensive the tools are Inside for example Milwaukee tool bags , thieves will target your van if they see you put w Milwaukee tool bag inside

[@jarryd5569]

Just started in the trade and thouse tool do look nice

[@philsbbs]

8:40 also covers you for peace of mind.

[@mark90229]

You need a little site box bolted to the floor of the van and locked up

[@mlpropertyservicesmattjone8097]

Tom all your videos are the best to say as I have just opened my own business as a painting and decorating it would help me out a lot with tools to win the set as not having the money to get some you are a very good person to hopefully get to meet one day 😃😃😃

[@ashmanelectricalservices4318]

The Aurora gear looks very nice. Definitely need to get myself booked on some training.

[@aggitravel]

Shocking!! brand new van and have to drill holes on the van for aftermarket locks

[@craigooonw]

Hi Tom. I have been wanting to become and electrician for a good while now, but struggling where to start. I have experience within electrical and components, as I am currently a lift engineer. I had read several training programs online but unsure where to start, can you give me any advice? Much appreciated. Thanks, Craig.

[@OMGitzEDD]

shit the bed .... i installed that show a few weeks back !those screens that hang from the roof are megga

[@themekfrommars]

Why isn't there a 3k security pack option on the new vans?

[@antonstener1883]

I have an alarm system in my van that alerts my phone. If it’s a burglary i will trigger my inverter that is connected to my chassi, 230 volts on the chassi. Atleast they will have to work for my gear until i come running armed.

[@thomasnagy]

I shall consider that :-)

[@antonstener1883]

thomas nagy I would have a hard time working in London. Must be a hassle with parking, burglary etc. where i live (Sweden) i can just park anywhere and we don’t have alot of crime at all. Consider moving to the north east of England though, depending on outcome of Brexit! Love your videos, keep it up!

[@m.v.k4681]

Anton Stener we also have scumbag criminals in Newcastle as well.

[@dnagecko4081]

Where did you get your shirts from?

[@securespark]

You could say that socket over the sink is compliant. In what plane do you measure?

[@TWS001]

Didn't realise how bad it was with people breaking into vans in London, nor did I realise how bad the Renos were! Keep up the good content.

[@markboon9327]

Thats bad news mate the break in you work hard for your money but good luck with new locks.

[@astrixistheman]

Can we send that test meter to clive?

[@janesouth2943]

Extremely funny breaking in. Noone stopped to ask you what you were doing breaking in. Dont keep equipment in van

[@mitchellcannon4196]

great video

[@hehir63]

Hi Tom where is the link for the wireless kit. Thanks Tony

[@KarlHamilton]

Haven't tuned in for ages. When did everything get so fucking professional?! :o

[@KarlHamilton]

Hold on. Just watched the whole video. I take that back.

[@MrWeddingPhotography]

Tom, how would you compare Aurora with Loxone?

[@andrewclarke3357]

Have just invested in a Milwaukee drill upgraded from Makita and Bosch. I'm in for Milwaukee gear

[@AnEpicScotsman]

Great video mate! Keep it up!

[@jackdoyle8533]

Get a top end fluke multifunction, simple and easy to use

[@chrisb4009]

I live in an old hose, there are sockets that were installed in the 60’s that are still perfectly serviceable. As soon as you start fitting “smart”’ you know they will be dead in 5 years. A big price to pay for some minor convenience.

[@ActuallyDarcy]

1st year apprentice here. Currently saving up for some Milwaukee 12 volt kit to save my back from carrying around my M18 stuff in my backpack every day
