I previously owned a pole saw that had two fiberglass extension poles that would bend while cutting from the weight of the saw head. This Kimo has two heavy gauge aluminum telescoping extension poles that are sturdy and don’t bend. And the extensions hold firmly in place with the lever locks. I also like that I can adjust the angle of the saw head. Not all pole saws have this feature. I’m pleased with this purchase.
How do you put air in your car tires? Sometimes I've used a manual bike pump or tried to find a gas station with a working tire fill pump ...both time consuming. I also have an inexpensive compressor that plugs into a cigarette lighter ...but it takes forever and overheats. This KIMO compressor really solves the problem in a very convenient way. It's very quick to fill, there are no wires or drain on your car battery, and it stops inflating as soon as it reaches a pressure that you define
So far I've used this to remove lug nuts and lower control arm bolts. I'm impressed. The torque involved with that particular bolt was well over 250ft-lbs.
The best thing about this wrench is the battery life, though. Kimo claims much improved longevity due to the brushless design, and on that front it delivers. I was using it quite consistently over a two hour job and at the end it showed 50% charge.
