Rounded off drain plug

   / Rounded off drain plug #881  
Ok, well this thread had done one thing. It has made me order a set of these pliers.

Add me to that list. $88 for the full set of 3 Knipex Cobras. I'm going to have to STOP reading these comments about the latest and greatest tools. I'm a sucker for tools to start with. I just bought a new NOCO battery charger based on these messages. Dang it - I already have 5 battery chargers! Yep - no matter, I still have to have just one more.

Now I have a set of surplus Channel locks. I guess now I need a larger tool box. But - I'm now ready for any rounded off drain plug :)

Do you need toolbox recommendations???

Not to worry about having 5 battery chargers, you will not pass me.
I have 15 trickle type chargers, and 5 regular chargers.
Your 5 chargers probably put you in the "normal" category.
That NOCO Genius is a nice looking device....I think I "need" one or two.

Nope!
You are NOT... "ready for any rounded off drain plug"!
You still NEED a Rigid pipe wrench!

OK, this is easy. Just get rid of the five old school chargers and keep the NOCO Genius. Regular chargers likely do more harm than good.
In fact, buy a second Genius charger and then you'll only have two chargers. :D

As well, he should pick up some band aids. Those new J&J ones with the cloth backing work well. Maybe a pair of auto gloves too. He should still farm this job out but if he does it himself there's going to be some degree of blood.

Good point, is there any real wrenching job without?

"Regular chargers do more harm than good"?

I don't think the NOCO Genius will help much when trying to start using a weak battery.
Maybe.... if you let the NOCO charge ..... until the day after tomorrow.

My "old school" Schumacher will charge/start at 4/30/60/300 amps.... right now!

Forget the chargers. What about the drain plug.
