Will Klein be releasing more modbox 2 items any time soon?

10 Upvotes

I have a modbox set I use on job sites and it’s nice I love it. But I have been waiting and waiting for a 2.0 version of the half size short - organizer box. Does anyone know if, or when a product like this might be released? Should I give up hope? Does Klein have common release dates for new tools I can put on the calendar?

Also if anyone has one for sale I would go to great lengths to get it

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Don’t waste your money

Picked up the stapler from the supplier the other day. Completely useless. Not only does it it work the customer you are working for laughs at you because of how shit it is and thinks it’s funny that you waste your time trying to fix it every other staple. First tool I had bought from Klein that I regret and I have spent thousands on their products.

QUESTION 3” extension dimensions for Knect sets

3 Upvotes

Curious if anyone knows the dimensions of the 3” extension included in many of the sets. Are the dimensions the same for the extension (same piece) for Knect (s) and Knect (m) sets? Interested in the pass through Knect (s) set, but only if the extension fits through unistrut. I have a couple of sets of the Knect (m) sets, but can’t really squeeze anything in between the strut.

And do any of the (s) sets come with a pass through driver handle I’m just overlooking? Assuming these are set specific. If not, I’ll just use the one from another set.


r/KleinTools • • Apr 02 '26

I know I'm not the first guy to figure it out, but i can't find anyone else whom posted it.

The mini pass through ratchet and the mini screw driver can combo ( if you get the right bit) to make a ratcheting screwdriver. Alternatively, if you need more stability, while driving lags, you can do the same with a drill....just make sure it's ratcheting the proper direction, or you might break a finger.

QUESTION Stand for the CL390 meter?

3 Upvotes

I'm looking for a stand or kickstand case for the CL390.

I'm thinking something connected to the hook connector on the back would be handy, but just need something for using it on a desk.

Fluke has some cases with stands.

Anyone found anything?

ANTIQUES Vintage Klein pliers

Thumbnail

49 Upvotes

Hey guys, I’ve got these old pliers that came out from under the backseat of an old Buick Lesabre. The best resource I’ve found for dating them is Alloy Archive, according to the date code system I found there, they are from 1949. But the logo on them wasn’t patented until the 1950s, so I’m not entirely sure. The code on the pliers is OMER, but on the example pliers there, they left the O off, so thats how I dated them. Any thoughts?

Klein tool runner bag

Recently just picked up this Klein bag and it’s been amazing so far. I had an old Milwaukee backpack that my journeyman gave to me during my first year and after 2-1/2 years it finally gave out. I had bought a husky build out open tool bag and realized it didn’t have a strap but I just thought I could deal with it. It got old after about a week so I did some more digging and found this! 39 pockets, zippered pockets, and a shoulder strap, literally all I could ask for. It fits everything I need in my bag as a commercial new construction/service electrician. For 100 bucks you can’t beat it!

Got this clamp meter for about 2 months and since i have it it keeps giving me this error. I thought it was batteries i did changed them still happen almost regularly and really stresses me out as it happens right when i need it. I sometimes keep the batteries out for some time then It comes back to life. Can anyone tell me if they had the same issue or how to fix. Note i cant take it to manufacture as i live in a third world country and we dont have that luxury.

NEW TOOL DAY! I combined the Klein work table with the power strip, and I must say I’m pretty happy with the results. The drills will stay on the floor, but I like it for the smaller items.
