What's In My Veto Pro Pac? The Ultimate HVAC Technician Tool Bag

[@petersmart1999]

I have 2 of the Veto Pro Tech pac backpacs they are pretty good! It has taken a bit to get used to it! I actually had all my stuff in a couple Husky 4 sided,parachute style pouch/bags! They were pretty darn durable and not $300 each! I actually gave them to my nephew who just started in the IBEW,he loves them!

Finding a bag that keeps everything in order is hard especially when you don’t want it to weigh a ton .

[@ptso7580]

The only difference I'll do is, keep that multi meter inside the zipped compartment. It's the tool that can't let you down in the middle of a job. Keep it safe.

Hey y’all, I’m a new guy in my first semester of HVACR school. I daily my m3 for my meter and tools, and a Milwaukee tool book bag for my school books and extra stuff.

[@Gh_cle]

Yall have any advice for me going into the trade?

[@diyhvacguy]

Always keep learning. And don’t get cocky. You’ll do awesome

[@techti8792]

Reality is, read as much as you can and learn the components such as safties etc and what they do. Get familiar with a wiring diagram. It will help you more than calling people. The trade is full of Elmer fuddz that get impatient especially in the summer time. The fuddz want to drag it out milk tickets so they can retire comfortably.

Good luck 🤞

Most all of my work was industrial , boilers, chillers, cooling towers, so that being said, my go to bag was a backpack. I was always climbing up ships ladders to get on the roof. I had everything you had and just little different setup as i had a rear compartment for all my ratchet wrenches. From 1/4 - 7/8. . I also had a small tool that looked like an offset reefer wrench. Amazingly i found it at HARBOR FRIEGHT. 1/4 ON one end and 5/16 on the other. I seen it and thought that might come in handy. Only 5 bucks. I used that a bunch. Not a fan of HARBOR FRT TOOLS , but i thought for 5 buck, cant go wrong. I needed the backpack because I was always climbing and needed both hands. Gauges over my shoulder. GLAD IM RETIRED. !!!!! 35 YEARS WAS ENOUGH.

Im not sold on the bag, but you sold me on that switchblade light!

[@russellham2094]

The TP XL is the same size, but has better weather protection

Wow, you have a lot of capability in that little bag.

I'll use the pouch you keep your switchblade flashlight in for Slim Jims.

Awesome set up thanks for sharing.

Can you make a video how you started your own hvac business or steps you took ? A day in the life stuff videos

[@dosiodosev740]

Pro set up, nice

[@mikeclark1756]

nice set up . i would add a pair of wire strippers .

[@diyhvacguy]

Oh I thought those were in there. Maybe I missed them! I keep them on the left inner pocket. Perfect place for them :)

[@Seedavis397]

I have this bag and I actually hate it lol. I love veto bags but this one always seems to tip over frontwards drives me nuts

[@Watchyn_Yarwood]

I'm curious about your meters. I looked at the specs on the meters listed in your Amazon shop and I don't see one that measures capacitance. I'm certainly no HVAC repair person but I do have a meter that accurately tests capacitors and that is the first thing I check on units in my rental properties. If I change a contactor, I also change the capacitor but I always test it and if it tests good, I keep it for emergencies.

[@KurkioKrazy]

i just wanted to ask what are those bit holders that you had on the carabiner called? i did not see those in your amazon shop. i also like that carabiner lol

[@markc9871]

I am curious how you like that drill / screw driver 2415 ? Some people bad mouthed it pretty severely, I suspect they were expecting to drive deck screws or torque something. I like the form factor for what you appear to be using it for. I thought for how you are using it, it looks like a good fit. The surge is quite a bit larger and won't go in my bag.

[@diyhvacguy]

Yea it’s perfect for hvac with zip screws, but it’s not an impact. I love it because it’s compact and is easily stored in my veto.

[@zjenji]

My kit is almost identical. But, dude, has no one introduced you to Knipex?

[@TheCherokeeKidd]

Have you checked out the new SB-LD

[@louisguillen9590]

should I get a racket or impact drill? im just starting to put my bag together.

[@williamkleber7989]

No wire strippers?

I do.

Whats the link for the keychain bit holders

[@lawrencecarroll2031]

Hi, my question has nothing to do with this video, sorry. My central a/c copmpressor will turn on and off every few seconds until it finally will run. It cools fine, I added a Supco hard start kit to it and it didn't help. I'm wondering could it be the contactor? Oh, the system is 16 year old, R 22, Bryant, 3 ton.

[@diyhvacguy]

Yea it sounds like the contractor is wigging out a little bit. Its a super easy replacement. Kill power, wire for wire and you’re good to go!

[@lawrencecarroll2031]

@@diyhvacguy Thanks for your advice! I just did the replacement and (knock on wood!!) it seems to be working as it should. I'm 80 and on a fixed income so not having to have a repairman come out is good. thanks again.

[@jimkaminski871]

I’m curious about the digital thermometer. I didn’t see it in the list of tools in the link. What type of thermometer is it and what is the brand? I’m interested in purchasing one. Are you satisfied with the one you have, would you recommend it? Thanks Jim
