Chris, if its a troubleshooting bag , keep it as light as possible, down to the tape measurer: take that big one out of the bag and replace it with the 3ft tiny one , its fine for most days and if you need a longer tape just go get it from the van. Same with the impact : keep the 4.0 battery for the big repairs bag , keep a 2.0 in that smaller bag. Trust me it really does make a difference. Hope you get better mate 🤜🤛

I started with a single large Tech-Pac back in 2021 but quickly figured out it was too heavy to lug around. Last Christmas hit a sale at a local veto dealer and got the MC-LT and MCT for half list price. I use the MC-LT as a diagnostic bag because it carries my iPad, the MCT I haven't found a use for but probably end up putting some specialized tools into. And hoping to snag the XL WHEELER when it comes out, not sure what for, but can't have enough veto bags. :)

I agree, my Veto bag is heavy empty and with all my favorite tools inside weights in around 35 lbs and I get red marks all over my shoulder when I wear the shoulder strap. I did switch shoulders frequently but actually switched back to a 5 gallon bucket with Husky bucket cady and found oversized handles on Fle-bay so the handles don't dig into my fingers. I do large commercial HVAC work and generally use a hand truck to wheel my tool buckets within reasonable distance of the equipment i work on. I pack super light when having to walk long distance across a roof

Nice review. I have looked at the bags well made but have never had the urge to try one. Have always used the CLC Maintenance bag (H85-563) I think from Johnstone Supply , It used to have the plastic tray in a pouch in the bottom , now its on the side. I can fit everything your blackout has in it for much less. They make a smaller one that tips 100% of the time I don't recommend that one . But why go with the backpack I've never understood?
