POV of a German firefighter: I like that tool.
The versatility of the different ends/heads of the Halligan tool makes it much more useful than classic crowbars in combination with an axe.
For that reason we see more and more Halligan tools as default equipment on new cars or additional loadout if you find a place for it. Also training is focussing more and more on this type of tool.
- Prcmaker 4y agoAlso no power required. I loved the hydraulic tooling I got to use, but almost every time we would turn to the manual option for simplicity.
- martin_a 4y agoYeah, indeed. We had a crashed car (persons could be rescued without forceful entry) and had to we get to the batteries. We just went down on it with the Halligan tool, much easier than getting the hydraulic instruments. Car was done anyway. :-D
