I think your statements on the screwdriver are probably the best example I've seen of intellectual honesty when it comes to product "reviews" on your channel. If someone casually asked me if you were an LTT fanboy, I'd respectfully say yes :) That, combined with the fact that you spent your own money on it, gives you every reason to want to justify your purchase.

Yeah I am a fan - I think he's still a capitalist, so his business is profit-focused, but as a capitalist he's about as chill as they come. He could have sold the company and cashed out 8 (or 9, I don't remember how much he said but at least 8) digits and destroyed the channel in the process but he didn't. Also the staff have enormous freedom compared to "traditional" capitalist businesses. He also drops VERY high paying sponsors when they do wrong by the fanbase, doesn't take crypto scam ad money, no gambling money etc etc

Your boat motor project sounds interesting. It's been a while, but I remember there was a name brand manufacturer that was suppose to be working on electric replacement motors for things like lawn tractors. I don't know if it was ever released or not. Might make an interesting boat motor.

On the watermark, I think you should use it. As you said it helps to point people to your content. The reason you want to have it isn't for copyright anyway.

[@frankowalker4662]

You should'nt have to justify yourself on a review video. It's your honest opinion that counts.

[@bwselectronic]

I personally wouldn't buy the screwdriver because it wouldn't be an every day tool for me. I have several sets of precision screwdrivers powered & manual that serve my uses. I'm not a fanboy of any tool brand. I have tools that are cheap Chinese off brands to even a couple tool truck tools. My motto is "the best tool is the one that works for you that you can afford"

[@SimpleElectronics]

Yup - but the LTT sure got a reaction from people!

[@AnotherMaker]

You should watermark them and not feel one ounce bad about it.
