    Good morning, I get bombarded (well 2) by emails from companies claiming they can find and win tenders for a monthly subscription. Could I ask what your experience is and whether any companies are worth looking at?

    Veto Pro Pac - Worth the Money?

    My old Stanley Backpack has given up after 2 years. The zips broken, and no way of fixing it. I am now tempted to buy a Veto, but as there are so many I’m not sure which model to go for.. I also thought I would ask and see if anyone is selling one on here?

    Worth calibrating a Di-Log tester?

    I forgot I had a Di-Log 9803P so called '17th Edition Tester!?', it was a rash ebay purchase a long while ago intended as a spare, and I discarded it when I thought it didn't have a high-current loop test. In fact there is a convoluted way of doing this but it wasn't in the original manual. An...

    CK wire strippers... are they worth it?

    I'm always on the look out for a tool that makes the working life easier. At present, I strip the cable the way I expect most of you do.
