I have the Micro Explorer by Ridgid, I like it a whole lot better than the Milwaukee version. Also if you own a SeeSnake it can be used with your see snake for digital recording.

Anyone who does a lot of work with PVC water lines should take a serious look at the 12v PVC cutter they just came out with. It can cut up to 2" schedule 40, or 1 1/2" schedule 80 according to the manual, though I have done some 2" schedule 80 with mine. I've used mine on several jobs already. It is a real time saver. It is a lot easier on the wrists then a hand cutter, and leaves no burrs to clean up like a sawzall does. I am a big fan of tools that let me work faster with less wear on my hands.

They also have a 12v LED flashlight now. Same design as the other 12v light they offer, just a lot brighter. I leave my DeWalt lights on the truck now most of the time.

I just checked around for the pipe shear. Nobody around here has got one yet. My one supplier will have them next week. I'll post a review after I get one.

They came out with a locater/stud finder tool that is supposed to find copper, pvc, pex, electrical and even re-bar in up to 6 inches of concrete.

Luckily for you that cutter will never see a piece of 2" Schedule 40 PVC that just got pulled off the roof rack in 10 degree weather...
