1) You know you're a mechanic when you're most excited about tools over any other product. 2) The wrenches are very useful for hard lines, to get them off you can simply just have the wrench move off the fitting, while it's over the line you'd be able to spin the ratcheting end by hand afterwards.

[@kachiiiing]

Yessss. But I just like to try and repair stuff

[@Lurch-Bot]

Should have a clutch so it is a vastly more useful tool. And how lazy are car mechanics getting these days anyway? Would never have used one of these as a line wrench when working in commercial aviation. It is just a good way to put scratches in your hydraulic line that is under 3000psi of pressure and lead to a failure.

[@Twin_Turblown]

@@Lurch-Bot I think the tool is more efficient rather than “easy”. Also you shouldn’t be using any 12pts on AN fittings. But just in case you do come across some scratches , please use REF AMM 29-00-00 when servicing Hydraulics.

The EMP protector would use MOVs (metal oxide varistors) and spark gaps just like the ones we put on home electrical panels to protect homes from lightning strikes. The reason for the connection to the chassis is because high voltages travel on the surface of conductors and not through the conductors so it will travel on the surfaces of the vehicle. Whether it would protect against an actual EMP is questionable because there is no place for it to go to earth ground unless the tires are wet. Though the pulse is microseconds, it has no place to go to get away from the electronics. Notice the chains hanging from the bottom of fire engines. They provide the path for the electricity to go to the ground which would blow the main circuit breaker if a stream of water or a ladder hits a power line. The ones for homes do work because the electrical panels are connected to earth ground. Just a bit of information, "If a powerline falls on your car, DON'T get out of the car unless it is on fire. When your foot hits the ground you will be electrocuted. Stay in the vehicle until help arrives. If you have to get out, jump out without touching the vehicle and the ground at the same time and then hop away with both feet together." A lesson from the electric company. I enjoy your videos.

[@bigdfitness5020]

Why hop away with both feet together?

[@reaganharder1480]

​@@bigdfitness5020current flows when there is a difference in electrical charges between two sides of the circuit. The voltage in transmission lines is high enough that a downed line will create a gradient of charge on the ground, such that the distance of a footstep is more than enough to create a massive difference across your two feet and thus push lethal current through your body. Keeping your feet together minimizes the distance between your points of contact with the ground, and thus the electrical potential between your feet

[@7miracles71195]

im an electrician and i left a comment after yours explaining this as well i just deleted it because yours is a better explanation. have to add that there are cheaper just as effective products for home surge protection and emp shield is one of the most expensive brands and despite their name i havent found any documentation rating them for high output emp protection just general surge protection up to "nearby" (not direct) lightning strikes

[@taylorsova2594]

So funny enough, this is the complete opposite of heavy equipment operator training. When your machine is in contact with a live wire, you should never jump far away, and you are supposed to shuffle step away slowly. I am confused why these are 2 conflicting answers.

Former Corrosion Engineer here. The anti-rust method is based on Cathodic Protection, which DOES work; however, the technique is improperly applied via the method shown here.

[@joshuabuchholz7181]

Agreed boats/ships have been using this method for long time

[@edherdman9973]

my guess is there's nothing sacrificial and no medium to sacrifice into (like water)

[@benruss4130]

@@edherdman9973 pretty much. Proper sacrificial Cathodic Protection is essentially a low power, but long lasting battery. All metals have native voltage potential when left in a medium, such as the ground or water. The "negative terminal" of the battery is the sacrificial anode, and the positive terminal (cathode) is the metal to protect. The protected metal is usually iron, or another metal with a less negative voltage potential then the sacrificial anode metals, which is magnesium the majority of the time, unless we are dealing with potable water storage. The "load" of the battery is the ground and/or water. And what happens when configured properly is that electrons flow FROM the anode, through the load, to the cathode. When this flow is relatively evenly distributed it prevents corrosion from various sources, but especially galvanic corrosion (as the sacrificial anode is being galvanically corroded to supply the electrons). This does not work against acidic corrosion, and there HAS to be a medium like dirt or water for it to function properly. There is also impressed Cathodic Protection, it works the same except you are using DC electricity to drive the voltage differential instead of native voltage potentials.

[@Yora21]

My grandfather was a firefighter and first aid trainer, and he always had a seatbelt cutter velcro-taped next to the driver's seat in all his cars. Not so much to free himself if he got stuck after an accident, but in case he arrives at an accident site and can't get an injured person out of a wrecked car because he can't get to the seatbelt buckle. Or he is injured in his own wrecked car and someone finds him and can't get at the buckle either. And with injured people in a mangled car, you really don't want to struggle with a knife on the setbelt next to their necks. Seatbelt cutters really would be a handy to tool to have within reach in such situations.

[@Lurch-Bot]

I've used a knife to cut a seatbelt after a wreck. There are techniques to ensure you don't accidentally cut yourself or the occupant. But I've also studied fencing and knife fighting technique; I might be a little more adept with a knife than your average person so those safety cutters are advisable for most people. The glass breaker is just a variation on the automatic center punch and could be problematic to use if you have a broken hand or wrist following a wreck; a common occurrence. Meanwhile, you can break a tempered glass window pretty easily with a firm stab with a sturdy pocketknife or you can place the tip against the window and smack the butt of the handle... There is a reason skydivers don't carry letter openers to cut tangled risers... More options with a switchblade. With a safety cutter, you might not be able to get the belt in that little slot if you are all shook up. The device here may work but it is too small and fumbly to use when you are literally shaking from a surge of adrenaline. Even Sandro is going to be shaky after a wreck. I know from experience. 'Chillin'' is a relative term.

Electrical engineer here! Regarding the EMP clip at 14:38, well. Its complete nonsense. What an EMP is is defined pretty well by Tony, but what its also capable of, especially a nuclear level EMP blast, is capable of frying circuits without a power source as it can incur induction in the circuits (remember how generators are actually just motors whose shaft is made to spin in a magnetic field to produce electricity? Think that except a billion times stronger in terms of nuclear EM energy), overload the circuits without any power sources attached to them and effectively fry them all. In other words, that shunt mod for the battery is worthless if the circuitry themselves are still vulnerable. And the makers of the product will know this too. Complete scam.

[@TheRealSykx]

It's such a tragedy that this amazing tool we call the internet gets used to propagate so much bad information and worthless junk.

Basically the only way to protect your car from an EMP is a Faraday cage. Or get an analog engine. Modern circuitry is very resistant to power surges but an amp would probably be too much. No one really knows because we aren’t just dropping a-Bombs to find out.

[@conorstewart2214]

I came across that scam online myself. They claim it can be used to protect your house too and claim that it was featured in a DARPA or MoD paper on EMP resistance, in actuality the product is called “EMP Shield”, so likely just the words “EMP” and “shield” were used somewhere in the paper. There have been lots of scams that are absolutely ridiculous and they tend to target the current societal concerns. Here in the UK there was one to help with higher energy prices, it claimed that by plugging this device in it cleaned the power and saved up to 80 % on your electricity bill, working on the principal of power factor correction but it was just a tiny box with an LED. There was another I saw that you were supposed to pay £2,000 for plans for this generator that you could easily build with commonly available items and it would just constantly create power and you would never have to pay for electricity again. There was one about heating too. Other common ones are online courses, from everything like starting businesses, stock trading and drop shipping to how to make yourself happy, how to get women, how to become an “alpha male”, etc. the vast majority of them are just nonsense. Unfortunately these scams do work, people wouldn’t do them if they didn’t make money on it and in general people are too eager to jump on anything that in their minds could work, mainly because they don’t understand anything to do with it. People are also too eager to believe that the government, industry, etc, are keeping a secret from them and that some person selling a course has found a trick to beat the government, industry, etc.

That corrosion control module...loll! I'm a drafter, and have done about 7 years total doing cathodic protection, which is the principle they're implying they're using. It is a real thing, and it is used in various applications, such as bridges, ships, and even buried pipelines. However, there is a slight problem. To borrow a paragraph from Line-X: These devices depend on a circuit being completed. For bridges the wet soil completes the circuit. For ships the salt water completes the circuit. The air around your vehicle does not complete the circuit for your car. Unless you drive in water constantly or park your vehicle in the soil (or in salt water) you cannot complete the circuit and thus cathodic protection is worthless when it comes to protecting your vehicle. Hope that helps explain it! In short, they're trying to describe a real thing that works. Just, it doesn't work on cars.

Cathodic protection usually requires a sacrificial piece of metal that is rusting, to protect the equipment that you don’t want to rust.

Yeah, under ground utilities also use an anode array to prevent rust.

Sandro & Angelina are hands down my favorite. These two would make a hell of a TV show.

[@roymoore4698]

You guys are great!! Keep it up! Completely made my day!!

[@tonyeltigre]

Sandro pulling out the Terran macro strats really sent me. Love these two, great video.

[@deaks25]

Best RMS episode ever. Sandro and Angelina are a great combo that always give us laughs and we even got some shop-time. That 'interior' rig was tight as well.

[@DorfenThomas]

OOOOOHHH SHIIIT, my man Sandro is a StarCraft player!!!! Fuckin' respect 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎

[@jason6618]

I think its awesome that you guys are actually showing if this stuff works or if its stupid. Keep doing it

[@Joshcom88]

I love them both.. Seriously their chemistry is some of the best on KZbin... I mean Donut is great too but this duo is the best...

[@AkSamurai69]

Once an EMP was mentioned, I immediately thought of Starcraft. I love Sandro even more now.

[@XJapanGonnaGiveItToYa-cd4xj]

They do use electrical charge to keep boat hulls from rusting but I believe its more complicated than whatever this car product is

[@HDL_CinC_Dragon]

Bridges too!

[@SilvaDreams]

Yes but they also have a sacrofical plate so those degrade instead of the hull (or bridge supports). It only works in water though, so unless you are parking your car in water it won't do anything.

[@lysolcoke2HD]

Do they use something like electrolysis to deal with that kind of thing? The bridge and boat stuff is new to me.

[@null3319]

​@@SilvaDreamsnot always our vessel is equipped with a accoustic anti fouling unit and there arent any sacrificial anodes

[@SilvaDreams]

@@null3319 Yes but that is more for alge and microorganisms (like burrowing worms) and not for rust prevention of a metal hull.

[@jscanlan22]

Great vid. EMPs pump voltage into every length of wire unless they are shielded by grounded metal. Components in grounded cases would probably not take direct hits but every run of wire in the car would probably have a spike and given that the grounding is only to the car chassis/body shielding would be questionable.

[@raypreston8098]

About the electronic corrosion control system. There is such a thing as this. It's designed in to ship particularly Military ship. So it is a valid and effective system that will slow down corrosion but its not as simple box as a wired in box. And it's designed into the ship when it's built.

[@rjgaynor8]

The way Angelina said “I want to break something”. Reminded me of a girl I went to high school with. Girl would get excited when we had to break something in shop.

[@majkiboy86]

Angelina and Sandro was the best addition ever. Love them both so much and they really do work together so well.

[@MagicCinema101]

One of the best video so far!

[@neonesf5967]

Gotta love the fact that these guys have more brains than half the(real experts 😂) on KZbin. Plus I’m kinda crushing on Sandro’s fangs😊

[@nTrylo]

10:30 this was such a genuine moment I love these two together in videos. And a StarCraft reference?10/10

[@EPiQ_cR]

Love seeing Angelina and Sandro actually out and testing stuff too. I think a future season of Hi-Low needs 2 teams of 3, and to divvy them up as guests at least...

[@rjswas]

MORE of actual testing of products, with our two favourite hosts of RMS.

[@222mo222]

we need to bring back the videos Donut use to do breaking down part functions/combustion/electricity etc etc and Tony can host them! Those videos were awesome and is what got me interested in the inner workings of cars.

[@edmunoz6524]

4:35 is just iron remover spray. We use it all the time when detailing a car. The color change is the spray reactive to small amounts of iron (brake dust) embedded in the paint/powdercoat.

[@dgphi]

Yeah, I have one of Meguire's wheel cleaning products which has that same chemical in it. That is a legit brand. I use it to help clean the alloy wheels on my motorcycle. I wipe it on with a rag, BTW, rather than spraying it on. It's more economical that way, and also I'm wary of spraying iron-attacking stuff around the place.

[@HEAVENSDrag0n]

The Navy uses a similar system to the second product to protect ships. We send a current through the hull to help prevent corrosion. The catch is there has to be a sacrificial Anode. Meaning we just cause another item to rust before the actual hull.

[@johnno4127]

If I understand the technology correctly it would have to be forcing a current through the air. The circuit would go from the car body, to the air, to the sacrificial anode...and somehow not go the short way by skipping the air.

[@andify96]

10:00 i remember my driving instructor when i took the bus/lorry license almost 10 years ago showed this exact thing (but in orange colour), and he demonstrated it on a old saab that we used as an traffic accident practise were we would either flip it, crash it or torch it in the end. easy to carry around and so easy to use that your 90 year old grandma wouldnt struggle using it :P bought one myself, but lost it years ago. But i also had installed an emergency hammer in case that would happen or if my ex were driving it the car at that time it is a small smiple life saver

[@SieggurtzuSpeyer]

17:35 I am a real mechanic myself here in Germany. I used a very similar tool like this one a lot for brakelines and similar stuff. Once done tightening the line, just pull the tool of the "screw" and turn the inner part until the openings align. really handy tool

[@ExUSSailor]

Those little self-rescue doohickeys are genuinely worth having in your glove compartment.

[@emgriffiths9743]

Unless your side windows are laminated

[@roguesample]

Cool to see Sandro at his shop!

[@philythekid30]

These two are my favorite guests they have on the show

[@Tanoaproductionsfiji]

2 of favourite KZbinrs!! you guys are awesome!

[@katinaswanson6511]

EMP sinks do exist, but because of the nature of the damage - currents can get induced inside the circuit boards even! - their placement is very important. You can't centralize it like that. Also, they're usually sacrificial devices that explode from the high current due to catastrophic overheating.

[@jake93]

They don’t need to be sacrificial, a lot of stuff is designed to handle transient spikes, like a good multimeter

[@tylerjohn4607]

Yep. Also its funny that the video mentions grounding it into the frame of the car when in reality in an EMP the frame is going to be dragging a lot of extra power and be the first thing causing problems

[@xFlow150]

Transient Voltage Suppressors are cheap and widely available. Almost every device connected to mains will have one.

[@katinaswanson6511]

@@xFlow150 That's a related but different thing. You need that next to individual chips in order to defend against EMPs, and even then it's a one-shot solution, the second burst will take the device out.

[@annehaight9963]

@@tylerjohn4607 Isn't a car basically a Faraday cage anyway? Would an EMP really affect it that much?

[@Skriggler]

Sandro trying to keep from laughing his ass off during the 2nd infomercial is too funny 😂😂😂

[@michaelbachmeier5478]

That open ended ratcheting wrench would be great for the alternator bolts on a 1st gen dodge neon . I used to have one that threw off the belt all the time and i wanted that exact tool to exist as i was fixing it

[@triciamuir]

Great chemistry! Always click when it's Sandro and Angelina ❤

[@zafraf3170]

Love that you're doing the scam product testing. I love when the Donut guys do it, but it makes sense when mechanics do it and give their input, too.

[@conorstewart2214]

It was so good to see them go and test it out at Sandro’s shop, I’d definitely like to see more of that or some more practical stuff on the channel.

[@malex3606]

This is the Best duo, we need them to have thier own show. DONUT DROP SOME G's.

[@gorilla_with_jetpack4102]

Gotta do a Mad Max episode and have it evolve like this: Ep 1 - El Sandro and Señora Angie critique the DIY cars from Wasteland Weekend. Ep 2 - The dynamic duo designs and formulates their own Mad Max style vehicles. Ep 3 - They build said vehicles and race them at the Wasteland Weekend Mad Max festival. Plot twist: Tony and the whole Donut team secretly builds a side vehicle, "A Challenger Appears"

[@samuelgarrod8327]

Sounds lame.

[@bennyrich7361]

This is the only duo I'm here for... Give them the channel... They'd make it more fun

[@QwertyDFTBA]

Testing out the products is awesome!!!! And I'm so glad we went to Miranda's shop!! Next is Angelina's, right? This was awesome!! This show just keeps getting better!!!!
