We share a second look at my Tech Pac Backpack Tool Bag from Veto Pro Pac. After two years of using this back pack style Tool bag to carry my electrical tools to and from jobsites I can honestly say to you Don't Waste Your Money on This Veto Pro Pac Tech Pac!
We have what is "In my opinion" a much better option from WiHa, its their Wiha RedStripe 30 Piece Tool Kit.

Love my Veto bags. Its so hard to explain to people how much better they are than all of the other options. They are the very best.
I do commercial/industrial HVAC and use a veto bag daily. It endures the sun, rain, snow, chemicals, and gets beat up regularly. Still using the same bag that I started in the field with 10 years ago out of highschool.

And 75$ allen wrenches !!!! there color coded I guess makes them more expensive .
The Red is eye candy. Great value BUT.........I always end up carrying the backpack by the handle....so I purchased the Veto XL Pro Pac and gave away the Veto back pack. Plus it carries way more hand tools, but gets heavier. Great Review Vince as always.
I’ve had one for going on 4 years in HVAC installations it’s held up great and fits all the tools
Just discovered your channel my dude....Electrician here in Milledgeville,Georgia... Residential/Commercial/ Industrial,you name it...ive been through a few bags the last 10yrs. An open top cradle style C.L.C. (Custom Leather Craft)...wore it out and got the Klein Back pack..was not happy how soon it caved and would not stand up no more...got another CLC but their back pack version and after only a month its starting to not want to stand up...anyway I'm a single dad of 3,so I usually do pretty well at tax time so if the offer is still available,I might just treat myself to the Veto/Wiha colab bag.seems very durable!! Love my Klien tools to death,but Wiha and Knipex are no slouches for sure!!! Keep up the videos man I'm about to dive into your channel!! God bless & 'MERICA!!
I use a Veto MB2 Blackout for my grab and go bag. Very well made.

Yo Vince, I have 3 veto bags and as you say way worth the money. They are awesome. Clad to see they are reaching out to great tool companies like Wiha. All the best my brother, happy new year!!!!
I did the same thing, converted to Veto Pro Pac Tech. Now my backpack is super heavy w/ 60 lbs plus and i just found the Veto Pro Pac TEch w/ Wheels ! Tempted to go to milwaukee packout because of the wheels....
I own every Veto Pro Pack Bag I even have the wiha I love this brand man great video brother!!!
I legit thought I was about to have to unsubscribe from the channel! I have the Tech Pac Blackout, and I absolutely love it. If it went missing, I would not hesitate to buy another immediately. Hands down the best engineered and best made tool bag I’ve ever had!

You had me worried for a second lol, I love my pro pac and if I ever wanted a new bag it would be that wiha bag.
I bought the milwaukee backpack and I gotta tell you... I'm now them impressed. use it for school right now, but that's just me
I'll be graduating with my degree in HVACR here soon and have some interviews next week to start working between classes. I just ordered the wiha Veto bag tool combo and am stoked to get it in and get to work!

It's been two years since you comment. Hope you're succeeding and thriving in HVAC, it's a great career path and has served me well.
Spending on gear is very personal. Different topic, but I bought a photography backpack about 6 years ago. At the time, I thought it was crazy to spend over £600 for a bag. But it still serves me well. It protects literally thousands of pounds of gear, it's comfortable all day, loaded with over 20kgs of cameras, lenses, tripods, etc... So there's no right or wrong answer... Good review, carry on.
The set needs diagonal cutters and wire strippers. Those always wear out first. Maybe a voltage tester too.
Vince, curious if you plan on posting any VCG construction videos?
@VCG Construction. Thanks Vince for the info on this deal. So where could we buy this Vito/Wiha deal? A link would help. Keeping you and your family in my daily prayers. Have a Happy New Year.
80$ for my husky H-68007 and I have ZERO complaints. Holds the two 12v tools (impact/sawzall) that i consistently use , all my hand tools I use daily , two hard compartments for 3 test meters , charger , 3 spare 12v batteries , removable insert for my most commonly used hand tools , front zippered pocket for my precision hand tools , two dewalt bit cases and my sawzall blade case with room to spare.
Greenlee has a pack, Klein also had a good starter bag. Personally I use Klein because price is decent and good quality and Milwaukee for a select few things when it comes to hand tools
Wow 😮 thx for the video!
Thanks cuz for a great video! Happy new year Vince! And the#VERYCOOLGANG!
Man this bag looks good , but I’m interested to see how it holds up to the new knipex backpack 🎒
NICE WIHA BAG! I recently got the Beato pro pack, rolling bag. I travel to New York, quite often for Hvac Work and making my way around the city. The rolling Beato pro pack. Tech bag has been a lifesaver.
It's a good job he was wearing his safety glasses while making this video, lord knows what terrible injury would have befallen him otherwise.
Still love your birth control safety glasses!
Cool video vince. I like the look of the Wiha better.👍🏻
I love my Veto Pro Pac Bags, they've been very tough and held up over the years.
300 is still a little crazy but they hold up, our lead install tech still has the original backpack from their first runs and everything on it is fully intact, works as well as a new one
Yo Vince! Happy New Year! 😁✌

I've been using veto bags for about 12 years plus, by far, the best bags you can buy.
Hey Vince! Check out the slim vario 15pc insulated 1000v screwdriver set, it’s the main squeeze in my tech mct.
I'm about to learn sewing and create my own bag.
-Veto MB3B is what I use for commercial refrigeration. -Fieldpiece BG36 for residential refrigeration -Milwaukee tech bag for HVAC sealed system work -Veto tech series & Milwaukee packout backpack used for tool storage and general usage. -Milwaukee open tote 15” bag for plumbing. I do residential and commercial HVAC, appliances and plumbing so the tool bags always have different stuff for each type of work involved.

They could include a knife but it’d be in “frustration free” packaging too.
I had an idea about a video series for the spring/summer. Set a budget and a construction/DIY project and buy all the tools you need at garage sales or online. It has to be used tools and on the cheap. Thoughts?
Love the veto bags but you need to review the Velocity rouge 5 from the UK, cheaper and good for the money.
Wow what a great deal!
I bought this bag and it is brilliant, hasn't missed a beat. Over a years worth of abuse still works fine. The only down side to the back pack is its weight, I got it to save my back by having the weight spread evenly rather than a sling style bag. But because it's about 16kg after all my tools go in it's still abit rough but that's just me. Very well made bag.

Make sure your straps are right and not too lose where the bag hangs on your back.
1 year of part time use is never enough to assess the value of a Veto bag. Use it 2-3 years 40-60 hours on average and then you can give a value appraisal. The Wiha special bag is cool. If I an electrician were starting from scratch and people still did hot work that back would make more sense but honestly being safe and compliant on jobs these days means virtually no hot work. I have a little Veto MCT and I'm getting a new Veto Tech Pack LT for HVAC controls work. It holds laptop, accessories, cables, and meter in back part and tools in front part. Tired of carrying the laptop in a case and bag in hand and trying to use card reader on doors and put mask on and off. Plus I'll be able to carry stuff while having the bag on my back.
You had me worried at first like others mentioned. Hands down Veto is the best. I have 10 of there bags. Use them in residential and commercial HVAC work. Have had 1 of the bags for around 14 years. Will never buy another brand.
Thank you for pointing me to that! Very good deal!

Depends on the trade and person. It's a great reliable pack AND the big bonus is that it doesn't tip over ! Like every pack does ! . BUT as a refrigeration tech NO WAY, it's way to heavy , just the pack itself weights allot. Ref guys are always on the move, roofs, basements , restaurants, long walks in shopping malls , NO WAY , your back and shoulders will be done . Try maybe Klein or some other brand . It's to bad it really is a tough reliable pack.
Yo Vinny. Didn't I see Veto selling his Pro Packs down in the Bronx's?
I have the veto service bag, all i wish is that it had a strap, kind of clunky carrying a loaded pac that weighs 20 lbs with one hand by the handle

I have had the klein bag and a husky bag. I wish this whia bag was available when I got my veto bag because I would have most definitely picked the whia up. As a industrial electrician and having to walk long distances to job sites and up and down steps the veto is the best bag for all my tools and keep them secured on my back. I have to admit I probably have to much in it but the min I take something out I'll get to a job site and need it I think it's close to 65 pounds and well worth the 300 investment thanks for the look man

This is exactly my situation, as an industrial electrician in London carrying the kitchen sink to site just to avoid being without and having to borrow tools. I'm considering this bag (or something similar) the build quality is amazing, but damn it will cost me around £250, that's a lot of money for one bag.
I hope they paid you well for that advert. I have a veto bag personally and you would have to drop me on my head to pay 450 for that
The bag does indeed looks nice and it does make sense that the Wiha with the extra tools would be a better option, but both my Milwaukee and Stanley Fatmax bags work pretty well depending on what I'm doing and if I need the bigger Milwaukee or the smaller Stanley. The Stanley also has reattachable tool slot compartment, which is very useful for me, because I can remove that part when I work and I won't have to dig up in my bag all the time. I've got both bags combined for around $150, which is around 1/3 of the price of the Veto Pro. I'd much rather spend the extra money on quality tools.
What's the quality of the screw drivers and other tools
When's Knipex gonna link up with Veto?! Lol 7:45 most relatable part of the video
YO VINCE, LMAO! I wonder how many people caught the my cousin vinny reference?
if you can do a video on if the milwaukee m18 table saw and 12in dual bevel miter saw is still worth it in 2022 please
I'm an industrial electrician and often use a laptop on site. I've been so tempted to get these a few times but the retail at the big box stores here in upper Mexico (Canada) want nearly $500 CDN pesos for this thing. I dunno if I can justify the cost.

I'm a heavy equipment mechanic in a mine. when we fix stuff in the stope, we only have the tools we can carry. would one of these pacs be sturdy enough to hold a couple socket sets, a decent set of wrenches, and a thorough electrical troubleshooting/repair kit. maybe 50ish lbs of stuff

I own 4 pro paks and my son has 2. They are the best on the market durable.great material and design. They are the only company that has really improved on the bags or paks in decades. Other companies just change the color of bags. Throw Thier logo on it and use cheap material. Veto pro pai kicks ass.period.
Does wihaa have a smaller tech bag ?
I have a bag from Dewalt and it's not the greatest wi switch to Milwaukee packout. You have to dig for stuff it doesn't open up like that
How long was that bag used for? Still looks new asf.. looks like this dude loaded the bag and did the review
What knife do you have?
Very mad at Veto. My tech pack is 7 years old, the zipper on the front has failed. I called Veto and they don't want anything to do with repairing it, they only want to deal with warranty. Considering milwaukee for my next bag at a 1/3rd of the price.
Best bag I have ever owned!
My heart dropped when I saw the video bc I just bought the regular bag 😂
Just got the red stripe for $375 at city electric supply after 10% first time customer code. That’s like $37 more than the tech pac alone.
I'm about to buy another XL. Replacing my XL I bought in 2008. I'm not a backpack person. Like the review though.
Where can I buy the velocity rogue 9.0 here in the states??
£290 for a rucksack! You also have to get it insured because if you work on a site, it will grow legs and walk off!
Great video as always Vince! I am getting this bag. Love the channel.
Those Tech Pacs are heavy AF.
Well if I had a need for this you better believe I'd listen to you and get it. But since I just buy things as I need them to fix stuff at work I'll just keep my husky tool bag in my truck lol
Had it for couple of days but is rubish, i could only get 1/2 from my klein tools bag to fit inside 😀😊
@VCGConstruction I would have loved to see how much your bag weighs with a typical full load
Id just get the bag i have all my own tools already and ik what i like it just doesnt seem like that great a value really

I have thousands in Veto bags…. And thousands in milwaukee. Veto makes a far better tool bag. The bags are just incredible. And they listen to their customers and bring new bags out with the requested changes and suggestions.
The bag itself is heavy already so if you can’t lift a ton don’t buy it you might get a dislocated arm.
I already have lots of Wera and Knipex tools so I'd just buy the veto bag by itself. But the collaboration is really cool.
Best bag ive ever had and I definitely abuse it id reccomend it to anyone
