BoltOn Technologies

[Wally13]

So I started a new job at one of the best automotive shops in the city I live, and the owner uses BoltOn Technologies ManagePro. Anyone here use it before or have any insight to it?

My first impression is that it is a great tool to utilize to help customers understand the whole maintenance/work process and streamline work authorization.

Also, so glad I invested in my cordless Milwaukee tools cause they have come in handy a lot as a mechanic. Still have a few tools to get such as some lighting solutions and a couple 12v impact wrench and impact driver. Also going to need the m12/m18 6 bay charger.

Congrats on the new job dude! I love milwaukees impact wrenches they've really hit it on the head with what they've come out with? Little bit of advice though I would pick up m18fuel impact wrenches don't get me wrong the m12 wrenches work great but they are longer than the m18 fuels that have been coming out

Thanks for the advice. I have the m18 1/2 impact for when i need the power. The m12 i noticed has enough reverse torque to take off most fasteners but weak enough to drive smaller fasteners withou damaging the vehicle.

There m12 3/8 ratchet is a beauty also man that's probably one of the most used tools I use at the shop

That is what i currently have and I absoposilutely love that ratchet. Its sturdy, fast, and a low profile head. Its a beauty and makes my job easier. Im really looking at the m12 fuel 3/8 impact wrench, the new m12 flashlight, and m12 fuel impact driver. Im a huge fan of the brushless technology, especially in the shop setting as break-away torque and battery efficiency are key. Cant go wrong with the 5 year warranty either as tools are expensive to buy, fix, and replace.

So true that 5 year warranty is top notch for sure? I just picked up the m12 stick light during the holidays and everyone at the shop loves to use it and not put it back lol! I also have the 3/8 wrench fuel it's great I just wish they would come out with some new more compact versions it's crazy how compact these these bigger 18v are getting

The m18 3/8 has an unreal amount of power for its size. I'd definitely pick one up. I used one all the time when I was working at the dealer here.

I also have the M12 fuel impact, it rocks!!! I used to run the Makita 12v impact but the Milwaukee stomps all over it. I also have the M12 1/4 inch ratchet and it is awesome. I used to use my 1/4 inch air ratchet all the time, and wear them out every couple of years. Now that I have the Milwaukee cordless, I don't think I have touched my air ratchet once. I am really looking into getting the IR impact ratchet in the cordless. I have used the air one and really like it. I think that it might replace my 3/8 air ratchet. Good luck at the new shop, I want to know more about the BoltOn technologies, I will have to look it up.
