Review on πŸ”§ NEBO Ultra Socket Combination Kit: Includes 19 SAE and Metric Sockets, Bits, and Storage Bag - Black (4327) by Brett Kolpack

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Best set of compact heads I've found

This was the last bit of tool bag I carry when I don't have access to my 500 pound wheeled tool chest. It features a useful selection of metric and SAE connectors, all housed in a very compact body. Before buying, I tried to put together a set of heads and find a head holder that was just as compact, and I couldn't find anything comparable. Ratcheting is good and the straight/45/90 options are very useful. Unfortunately, the hinge mechanism (which should be behind the ratchet) causes the tool to become quite "thick" when folded 90 degrees. It cannot get to the nuts like a regular ratchet screwdriver. It stores a bunch of regular screwdriver bits in the handle, but I would never choose it for screwdriving when my Lutz 15-in-1 ratchet screwdriver is handy. I considered replacing the handle with a regular 1/4" socket to save weight and space. . This causes the flap to close too long. But the 9/16" socket is a handy addition. I would include this kit in every new portable tool set I build.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Some bits and pieces
