Veto Pro Pac Tech LC or Tech XL

NDG Elecs · Apr 14, 2020

I do like the veto gear but feel most of their options lack space for bigger tools such as drills, site lights and boxes for screws, clips etc etc. Plus the cost is exorbitant. I don't mind paying for quality - I actually prefer to - but with veto there is too many small upright pockets on my view.

You can get parts bags as well.
I have 5 they clip on to the bags.
Drywall fixings, selection of wagos, screws and plugs, whatever I need really.
It works really well for me but everyone is different.

I have taken a few pictures of my Veto pro pac XL for you @sparky16 , it's not the tech version but it will give you an idea of size and weight.
The only embarrassing thing is that I have now seen that @ferg has put pics up and his bag is far shinier and well kept than mine (bet he tidied it up for the picture

).

With all the tools in it weighed 12.5kg which I find perfectly acceptable. I am very careful when lifting and do not over lift even though I am exceptionally strong and muscular (see attached photo), obviously that was a joke.

I am very pleased I went for this size and not a smaller bag. I think your mind sees 'XL' and thinks it may be too big, it's not, it's the perfect size.

I must have had it almost 2 years and nothing is broken or worn. The main zip is occasionally stiff but that is down to me not looking after it as per the MI.

I remember when I first got it and I would admire all the neatly placed tools in it!

Rather Sadly I didn't tidy it for the pictures.

I had been using a tote for years and got so fed up trying to find stuff I'd just thrown in it I deliberately bought bags with zero chucking stuff in space.
I have parts bags for bits and pieces.
It might seem like an extravagance but the difference it makes to my working day is not to be sniffed at.
