    One of the things caffeine does is it doesn't actually wake you up but it masks your tiredness symptoms. That's where the problem of using caffeine to wake up comes from, it doesn't deal with the problem of feeling tired, it just makes you think you're not. I have pain and related fatigue issues, so I use caffeine when I need it to achieve something where I'm too tired to be at my best. But the big thing I do is sleep and nap whenever I need to. If I have the freedom to, I'll grad a sleep over caffeine every time because one deals with the problem, and one doesn't. And ignoring the fact you're sleep deprived by hiding the symptoms is ultimately a losing game. Over time, you're more likely to make mistakes, be irritable, and have other issues. Another great vid!

    Been using Bahco for about 10 years now, but I also bought a set of Werckmann. The Bahco set was about €50,- and the other set about €6,- . There is a difference in durability, but as long as the insulation isn't damaged, they're both perfectly safe. The Bahco set has seriously degraded rubber on a few of the grips by now, so I need to replace them. The cheap set has all the tips worn really bad, and I haven't used them nearly as much. Worn tips do tend to damage the screws and terminals too though, so that's a good reason to go for something more durable. That said, the €6,- set is a LOT better than non insulated tools. When in doubt: buy the best you can afford, do your work safely and save up for better tools somewhere down the road ;) And yes, I DO work on live installations. I mostly work in venues where they have live music or theater. Especially the smaller ones don't have the budget for proper modern gear, or even proper techs who plan what is connected where. If you have to do work on a fuse box, often the only way to power it down is to literally disconnect the main 400A fuses. That would shut off most of the building, and it would require the service provider to send someone over to cut the seal and replace it. That takes days, or even weeks, and it's VERY expensive. So if something happens that really needs to get fixed before the show that night, you're working on a partially live installation. Safety is THE ABSOLUTE HIGHEST priority EVER. Especially since there are also other people running around. I'd MUCH rather use a new €6,- set than a defective €50,- one XD

    I work in underground mining, I'm always losing screwdrivers and if I dont lose em they rust out in a year or 2. Mostly I'm repping the aldi or craftright screwdrivers, although I do try to keep a set of the wera stainless VDE screwdrivers for when I want quality, their laser etched tips really are pretty good and your not paying much extra to get them stainless, plus they still nearly as well as the regular steel ones

    Had the marvels crosscuts, wattmaster crosscuts and just got the xtorque crosscuts. Did anyone happen to know if the xtorque are actually 1000v vde because it says it on the packaging but nowhere on the handles which has me skeptical. Anyway, they're all great until you can't be bothered using side cutters for a gpo screw ;).

    Yep, 60mm segregation or 6mm thick barrier between comms/TV and mains. More so for potential vermin damage etc to prevent a contacting fault. Close parallel runs should be avoided due to inductive noise as well.

    Lots of expensive power tools in your collection, but no $70 pair of moulded earplugs. They are worth it if you work in construction sites where there is always a saw operating nearby. Much more compact than earmuffs as well and you clip them onto the back of your shirt collars for easy access.
