Those knipex shifting spanners are awesome. I have a 180mm set in my laptop bag along with a few “just in case” tools and it has saved my backside more times than I can count.
What the heck you are doing to your poor laptop with a 180mm shifting spanner?? ![WTF? :wtf:](https://www.eevblog.com/forum/Smileys/default/wtf2.gif.pagespeed.ce.pxLiY5pjs4.gif)

Definitely don’t use it on the laptop

I always have a few useful tools in my laptop bag (that knipex shifter, volt stick, Stanley knife, small ratcheting screwdriver set), you never know when it will come in handy. I know the dangers of volt sticks just before anyone jumps in. It’s more of a “yes, there is power” rather than a “no it definitely doesn’t”. If I need to be sure, out comes the proper gear.
I have a 400mm knipex set at home in the tool trolley. I got it for a ridiculously good price, but have never used it. One day I will use it I’m sure. It takes up nearly the width of one of my toolbox drawers.
