Might wanna change center of mass - heavy pliers etc towards middle/bottom and progressively lighter towards outside, with flimsy stuff on the outside :)
I imagine if you had a hammer or any power tools, and if you didn't put the heaviest hand tools in the front side of the back pocket, it wouldn't tip over every time you put even more pressure on the front of the bag. You have 6 pairs of snips, strippers, pliers, and then about 6 to 8 wrenches all in the front side and just some light screwdrivers in the back. lol
Exactly i have my impact driver and multitool in the middle it keeps it balanced, im a floor installer and its friggen awesome, also the side pockets are made for drinks
Not judging but Id probably would have moved the heavy shit to counter the weight and balance the bag I hope you are not an electrician cause Id like to see how you hang lights at the jobsite 😅
Lol the large pockets are for either larger meters or multiple tools, try putting if a set of Klein ratcheting crimpers and automatics strippers in the bottom pockets, they won’t fall like that if the pockets full.
I've had mine for about 5 mouths love the bag but it definitely has some flaws the sides have broke down so zipping it back up can be a pain and it dose tipe over all the time but other then that I love it. I have 4 of the slim packout organizers that i lock onto the bottom depending on what im doing and the facked that it looks onto my big roiling packout kit is awesome.
Thanks for the review. Was considering this. Got a free Klein Backpack I using. It's okay, used it long enough to see if I liked the backpack setup and I do, but the pockets and the tipping are two very frustrating things I dislike. I thought this might be the answer and it looks like it somewhat is, but I'm going to check veto's backpacks out. I know they make good quality gear as I've ordered pouches from them and was happy. I like pouches but they were causing too many hip and back problems.
opinionatedman veto makes great bags for sure, i also have a review on the veto backpack. It’s a lot better than the milwaukee backpack that’s for sure!
Veto costs nearly $300 so it better be good. This one is around $100 and it gets the job done. It helps to put the heaviest stuff near the center of gravity
That's what I was saying. I've had my CLC for 5 years, and am not nice to it. It's just now starting to wear out. Of course it's floppy, its a bag lol. It's like saying your toolbox is too hard and square lol
I bought a Milwaukee packout cart and the small packout toolbox. Klein zipper bags separate the different tools. In the cart I put the power tools and a veto pro pac TB5 pouch. I will also get the low rise organizer for electrical connections and other stuff. The small toolbox will hold the hand tools inside the separated zipper bags and meter, the cart will hold the larger tools. I will not over burden the set up because I have to use the stairs. So far no problems. Plus, I can lock the tools up.
And, there's no heavy tools in the base, which will help if there were. The trouble I've found with Veto and Velocity is that they are so heavy you lose two impacts in weight to them.
Bro get the veto mc blackout and get a free tp-lc bag. That makes a 250 dollar bag cost about 150. And you have 2 better bags with a 5 year. You’ll be so much more happy with a veto bag.
Is that an elastic band or something on the left near the bottom? If that were cut or removed would that let the front lie down preventing the bag from tipping? Looks like a nice bag. I’ve been looking at the CLC bags. Reasonably priced and well laid out.
Complaining about a tool bag backpack being floppy is like complaining about a toolbox being rigid. You might just not like the feel of tool bags vs. boxes.
I have the same bag and it's trash, mine does the same thing. The only one I've found that doesn't tip like a piece of shit if the veto backpack but it's $400+
I was literally about to get that one, but then I realized that the tool station doesn’t have a plastic bottom so the bag and tools would get wet if it were set in snow or mud
Same as the pockets on the small PO tote, dead flappy, no good for the tools it’s advertised for imo! I love packout but come on, create a decent tool pocket ffs! Why not join up with Veto and get them to do a Collaboration and make a Veto/packout bag/range? Can only be good for both parties, surely? Tradies would be flocking to get one! $$$$$$$
Backpacks are shit, always go for a tote imo. The veto bags are made amazingly well but if you have a van then any decent tote will beat a Veto bag imo, all depends how far away you are from the job in hand? 👍
Yeah ik I was thinking about a new bag and looked at this on youtube. As nice looking as it is on the outside the functionality just wasn't there. It seems like almost all the tool backpacks are like that (looks nice on the outside but not alot of quality) I will at some point get this bag but it certainly won't be my main go to. I will say though all the tool backpacks do seem to have alot more space. However the only tool backpacks that seem to actually work all around would be the vetos.
i had for about a year was always falling over even when empty. was very uncomfortable would stab into my lower back. i ended up returning it bought a veto pro pac. pricey but worth it

“ I hate the short wide pockets at the bottom” as you attempt to shove tall narrow hand tools in them. Lol.
Definetly an apprentice. First tool bag and can't load it properly
matthewd29 nope, not an apprentice. Just a poorly designed bag. I’ve reviewed many.
@@camtheelectrician Well u sure as shit loaded it like an apprentice!

You didn’t load it right
How is it not loaded right? Should he have tiny screwdrivers and zip ties in the front of it?
that's your personal opinion. I do like those backpacks. there awesome
Garbage bags for kids in school.. Go Veto.. u will never look back
The floppy lower pockets are good for your tubing cutters and Allen key wrenches. Also great for pipe dope

Leave it to an electrician to just toss shit wherever
🤣🤣
Those bottom pockets are for wire nuts screws nuts so on
I had a CLC backpack and it was tippy also. Maybe that’s inherent to all tool backpacks. It was a really good pack all the same.
That's what I was saying. I've had my CLC for 5 years, and am not nice to it. It's just now starting to wear out. Of course it's floppy, its a bag lol. It's like saying your toolbox is too hard and square lol

You could click it onto a packout organizer to give it stability.
Brilliant. That’s my plan when I get my stuff!
Those bigger, wider pockets are for batteries 🔋 At least my M18 batteries fit perfectly 👍🏼
Is that an elastic band or something on the left near the bottom? If that were cut or removed would that let the front lie down preventing the bag from tipping? Looks like a nice bag. I’ve been looking at the CLC bags. Reasonably priced and well laid out.
7 mounts later... I should have listened to you
so in summary you returned it because you don't understand gravity?
In summary, it wasn’t designed to account for gravity. 🙄
@@camtheelectrician LOL, it wasn't designed for super smart people like yourself so it seems
Complaining about a tool bag backpack being floppy is like complaining about a toolbox being rigid. You might just not like the feel of tool bags vs. boxes.
Not the case. Klein and Veto both make much more rigid backpacks.
I hate that it falls forward
I have the same bag and it's trash, mine does the same thing. The only one I've found that doesn't tip like a piece of shit if the veto backpack but it's $400+
I agree with you good video
Is this guy a real electrician must be his first tool bag
#420
I just loaded mine and it didn't tip.
those lose pockets inside the backpack is good for screws and shit
Packout hard storage or a normal tool bag, but the Veto Tech bag is the best backpack tool bag for sure
Did you find a replacement bag? I’m looking at the new Klein tool station backpack. It looks like it will never tip over.
Klein bags suck. Zipper is always breaking and it tips just like this one.
I just ordered the klein
Had the tool station backpack as my daily bag for 8 months, it’s a good size, and it really never tips over and zippers are holding up pretty good
I was literally about to get that one, but then I realized that the tool station doesn’t have a plastic bottom so the bag and tools would get wet if it were set in snow or mud
And get torn up real easy real fast
Unfortunately, no one can even compare to VETO for design, function and usability.
Thenpockets u hate r for 12v batteries. 18v too.
Just put your heavier tools on the other side.

The small packout tote has the same pockets....pissed me off
Can you remove the inner compartments
no you can't.
i had for about a year was always falling over even when empty. was very uncomfortable would stab into my lower back. i ended up returning it bought a veto pro pac. pricey but worth it
U had it for about a year and returned it?!
@@JBERNABEL init lol
@FuccDissShit 😂😂
So veto still the best? Still use packout?
Nick Mulvey
veto is 100% still the best.
I use the packout system , just not the bags
2 y warranty on Milwaukee backpacks. Got it too use it with my packout system
Wie kosten das ich kaufe
Get Husky the best bags and price right I have 3 never looked anywhere else.
lmao dude if you cant load a backpack up evenly god help being an electrician bro
😂
Looks like a pack for children in kindergarten
