A two inch EDC micro ratchet radically improved the performance of my mini everyday carry tool Kit

In this video, I upgrade my EDC mini tool kit by replacing the 3.66" (93mm) mini bit driver with a much smaller 2" (53mm) ratcheting bit driver. Watch as I test each driver using a torque wrench to see which one handles torque better. Surprisingly, the smaller 53mm driver outperforms the 93mm driver! This switch not only improves the performance of my kit but also frees up space in my EDC kit for additional tools, enhancing its overall functionality. Perfect for anyone looking to optimize their everyday carry tools.

What are your thoughts about the 711L mini ratchet? Post them here in the comments. ALSO, be sure to check us out on Reddit. Go to www.reddit.com/r/Earthling_EDC/ you can post images of your EDC!!!! I'd love to see what you carry and why. Thanks for taking the time to stop by today!

Don't forget a fresnel lens 👍 You could easily fit a short pencil and some magnets too. Is your charger cable also a uSD card reader ? Rovyvon are superb flashlights.

Two challenges I've been working on, inspired by this channel: compact and light enough kit to carry every day on my body with zero hesitation due to weight or bulk; and designing the card (which I've found can be made old school, with a drill and a saw, since I don't yet have a 3D printer) to not require a bunch of fiddling and puzzle piecing to easily access and replace the tools. Like the channel does, I continue to refine. (While also trying not to lose myself down the OCD rabbit hole, LOL) Love the content, and find that while I have a huge arsenal of tools, the little EDC pack is always my go-to due to the ultimate convenience of it. Psychologically, the tool that you already have on you is always the most likely one to get used, if it can do the job. No matter how many others you may have that require foot steps to get. Recycling an old phone case back for the card raw material, that would otherwise be tossed, is another brilliant idea from this channel. Thanks!!

This video was where I started watching you, and learned what "EDC" meant. Now my RU-vid feed has too much. I have found the 711L ratchet with the Steinwhale extension and bits to be very compact, light, and useful. I had been skeptical because the bits are so short, but they have worked in most cases I've tried, including several bicycle repairs and adjustments. In cases where I would prefer a locked setting for the ratchet, the bit in the handle with the extension in the ratchet for leverage works well. The small tin the 711L came in fits the whole set with all the bits, with a little cotton to keep it quiet.

That’s the exact ratchet I got a good while ago to carry with my Leatherman and find it way more useful that the 711L that fits into the tool bit driver. I have an extension that fits into the Leatherman with my kit too and what’s great is you can just put it into the bottom of that 711L and boom you have a regular length 1/4in driver handle.

@The_RC_Guru - Thank you for taking the time to post. I agree with you. It's a great little tool and as long as you carry a bit extender with it, the small handle is really not an issue.

I have the 711L lollipop and Leatherman-compatible ratchet. I'll say right away I'm an industrial mechanic, working on everything from pneumatics to electric motors, hydraulics to HVAC, with some plumbing thrown in. I use micro/EDC sized tools for 95% of the jobs I do. If you want to work fast you have to. 711L makes some great products that I cannot recommend enough, the lollipop being my favorite carry-everywhere screwdriver and the bit-insert ratchet coming with to tighten up hex bolts holding small pneumatic cylinders or solenoid valves. Most of my jobs could be completely finished with those plus a couple knipex pliers. I'll have to get this ratchet, I know it will come in handy.

@EarthlingEDC Месяц назад

@Raeilgunne - thank you for your post. The Lollipop is an amazing tool. I'm going to include it in an upcoming video. I agree with you regarding the tools you mentioned. They are all solid, good quality tools that can do things that you would not expect from their size. Thanks again for taking the time to share this info.

@egbluesuede1220 28 дней назад

Personally, I own both the Steinwhale bits and the wiha bits, and prefer the wiha. The Steinwhales are too short and fit a little awkwardly in tools. I kept their bit holder and replaced them with wiha. I also own the 711L and love it, but bang for the buck am now interested in the Power Torque for other kits where size may not be as premium a factor. BTW - Steinwhale makes some really good tools at a great price. I have another set of bits and ratchets I use for knife maintenance that is fantastic.

@EarthlingEDC 27 дней назад

@egbluesuede1220 - I agree. I like the WiHa bits a great deal. They have always worked well for me. I'm just starting to get into the Steinwhale bits, but have not had any issues with them so far, so that's been going well for me. I've got another video coming out sool that features another style of the 711L mini ratchets, working with a Nextool multitool. Interesting use case... Thanks for posting!

Credit to Todd Parker’s channel for the steinwhale 711L combo, he even sawed the extender down to be more compact

@EarthlingEDC Месяц назад

@rogerp.2442 Thanks for taking the time to post. Todd does excellent videos. I have not seen that particular video, but will check it out. Based on the test that I had with the torque wrench in this video, I would not cut down the bit extender for my use. My hands are too big and a longer handle on the 711L ratchet is going to give more even distribution of pressure allowing me to apply more torque if needed. For those not familiar with Todd's channel, be sure to check it out here: www.youtube.com/@todd.parker his table top videography is exceptional.

@practicalguy973 Месяц назад

Nice kit. I built one with an Ares 70040 mini ratchet and Knipex pliers also! It's been very useful but I'm always looking for items that will increase capability. A flashlight you might want to check out is the Skilhunt H150. It's a AA headlamp but it makes for an awesome right angle flashlight. I have two of them, one I use at work daily in server racks and under computer workstations. I can tail stand it and point it at what I'm working on and with the headlamp beam profile being wider its great for up close work. It's got a constant current driver so the brightness does not go down in each mode as much as typical flashlights and its the most efficient in terms of runtime for a single 14500/AA flashlight I've seen. It's slightly longer than the Rovyvon A5 though but adds more side lighting brightness. I got both the 519a 4500k and XM-L2 6500K versions and the XM-L2 is just more impressive with 10-20% more brightness depending on the mode for the same battery life. For something so small I prefer to prioritize brightness over tint.

@EarthlingEDC Месяц назад

@practicalguy973 - Thanks for your post. That's a nice little light. The dimensions are good for a pocket rack as well. www.skilhunt.com/portfolio/h150-aa-14500-usb-magnetic-charging-led-headlamp/#1543941458975-87e9d02d-f32d I might reach out to them to include one in a future video. Many thanks for the suggestion.

@practicalguy973 Месяц назад

@@EarthlingEDC Awesome. The only thing that is large for EDC is the magnetic charging cable. I dont worry about taking it with me since I have AA alkaline in most places I go and NIMH rechargeable batteries at work if I run out of power. I like the design of the headlamp band to, its pretty compact. You can get away with just one strap if you really want to save a little more space. I carry the headlamp band on night bike rides and will take it backpacking/ bikepacking for sure.

@practicalguy973 Месяц назад

@@EarthlingEDC Awesome. I've owned a lot of AA flashlights over the years, its been the most useful one for me. Good luck with testing! For backpacking/bikingpacking I was looking for a small water proof, impact resistant power bank to charge flashlights like the H150 and my phone. I ended up going with the Wurkkos WK15 which is another flashlight! I actually got two of them and that gives me a really packable 10'000mah of powerbank and follows the one is none rule so I've got a complete backup if one fails while out for a weekend. Also for camping it has the most low modes out of any high power flashlight and a decent UI for $30 each. Its not a perfect flashlight as the beam has the fried egg look but for what I bought it for I like it a lot and having redundancy for lighting is good.

There are a bunch of great tiny ratchets now out by Wiha, Wera, Icon, and even Klein. In practice tiny ratchets like the 711 can be pretty hard to use and gain any leverage with. I recently bought the Icon set and really like the versatility of the tiny flex head ratchet as well as the fact that the bit extension can be used as a t-handle, or handle extension to add a bunch of leverage. The Wera kit feels the most "premium" but lacks some of the bitholding versatility. It looks like the 711 has come down a lot in price, I remember looking at them before and seeing the prices up towards $80.

@@EarthlingEDC I find the Steinwhale bits to fit too well in the ratchet, so much that I have to use my knipex to really pry the bits away. Do you find that experience to be similar to yours? If so, what do you recommend?

@EarthlingEDC Месяц назад

@deathpunchrigby1664 - I've inserted both sides of each bit into the 711L ratchet section. Some of them can be quite tight, but I can insert and extract all of them on both sides of each bit. The larger bits are easier to insert into the ratchet than the smaller bits. When I look at them closely it appears that the center hex portion of each bit needs to transition down to the the smaller size of the bit head. For the small bits that transition can be quite steep resulting in a sharp edge that can hang up on the 711L locking mechanism that engages with the bit. If you want to make the bits easier to insert into the ratchet, I'm going to get a small flat jewelers file or maybe a small piece of emery cloth sandpaper and see if taking down those sharp edge will make them easier to insert into the ratchet. To extract a tight bit, don't pull it out, push it through from the opposite side of the ratchet. That's what has consistently worked for me.

These Pocket Racks™ come in different versions and are an open source 3D print design, so anyone can print one or customize the design. The only major restriction is that you can't sell them. There is a utility patent pending. To make one for yourself, go to: www.thingiverse.com/search?q=Pocket+Rack+EDC&page=1 and download any of the six versions that you would like to print. You can then go to a website like printathing.com, or a local 3D printing service in your area and have them make one or more of them for you. This PDF has more details on sourcing the elastics that are used with them. See: bit.ly/MicroEDCOrg and this video shows how to make the elastics bands that are used on the Racks: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ir9DbaY8P8Y.html Enjoy !

In this video are you using the pocket rack or the mini pocket rack?

@EarthlingEDC Месяц назад

@kechidonick Thank you for your question. In the video I'm using a mini pocket rack, but a standard pocket rack will work just as well and give you a bit more room to work with as well.

Sits deeply in the ratchet 😂 you said socket 5:30

@EarthlingEDC Месяц назад

@AntonioClaudioMichael - Good point. That particular wrench has a socket in the handle as well as ratchet in the head. When you drop a Steinwhale bit into the handle, it sits very deeply into the socket. The wiha bits that I was using previously don't do that. Many thanks for your post!

@AntonioClaudioMichael Месяц назад

@@EarthlingEDC you were talking about the ratchet head when you said socket that's why I thought it was funny. I understood what you meant. Good video

Do you plan on selling the pocket rack, for those of us that don’t have access to a 3d printer..Ty

I got the 711L mini ratchet and the Steinwhale bits too. Unfortunately, the Steinwhale bits don’t work with the 2-in-1 extension (flips from a hex bit holder to a square socket holder) 😢. I can’t remember the name of the short bits I got instead.

@dabmanian_devil Месяц назад

Do those mini 2 in 1 bits work in 711l ratchet? Like the actual ratcheting head, not the magnetic bottom hex spot lol.

@corbenj Месяц назад

@@dabmanian_devil I think the largest flat head won’t fit but all of the other bits fit into the ratcheting part. The 711L and Steinwhale bits work great together. You can get around the large flat head not fitting by using the extension that comes with the Steinwhale set.

@EarthlingEDC Месяц назад

@dabmanian_devil - Thank you for your post. Yes they do. I can even get the large flat head bit to fit. Keep in mind that there might be slight variations in size between the bit driver and the bits, but the for the set-up that i have everything seems to fit.

@EarthlingEDC Месяц назад

@corbenj - Thank you for sharing that information. I also tried it with my 711L 2in1 extender and it did not work for me either, but I was going to use the Steinwhale extender anyway so its not an issue for me, but it is good to know.

@corbenj Месяц назад

@@EarthlingEDC I had to be careful with the Steinwhale extender. My FIL has a metal hip and I was worried the magnet would rip it out of his body 😂

would you recommend the nexttool mini over the gerber dime?

@EarthlingEDC Месяц назад

@kechidonick - Thank you for your question. The Gerber dime has pliers as the primary tool, The Nextool mini sailor that I featured in this video has a large pair of scissors as the primary tool. I specifically chose it for those scissors. They are great! Nextool also makes a mini sailor with pliers as the primary tool, but I have not tried it out yet, so I can't give you a recommendation for them. Thank you again for your post.

Your NOT carrying that around everyday in your pocket. Thats just silly. Im all for small micro tool kits but lets not pretend that is suitable to carry everyday.

@EarthlingEDC Месяц назад

@aussiehardwood6196 - Thank you for your post. You are correct. I absolutely am not carrying that in my pants pocket daily. However. I do carry it in a coat pocket, backpack, sling pouch, belt pouch, in my car and at my office. It's always within a few step or on my person in some way. If your definition of EDC is your pants pocket, you are correct it's not suitable for me to carry it that way and I would imagine other would feel the same way. I do know that there are viewers who use it as a pocket organizer with small tools mounted on just one side of the rack. That actually works and can be quite comfortable depending on what is on it. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts on this.

Interesting. I ordered several of these items. Might I suggest also adding a small 4 inch Crescent wrench? I have been a mechanic for forty five years and I have carried one of those in my pocket for the last twenty. It has come in handy countless times.

@EarthlingEDC Месяц назад

@bustednuckles2 - Good suggestion. I've been using the Knipex xs or the 4" locking pliers which can double as a wrench in a pinch, but I might give the crescent wrench a go to see how it works out. Thanks for te suggestion.
