Often thought about a set but so far haven't got to the point of actually needing them.

I also keep thinking of an induction heater for reluctant nuts, at the moment they're a bit on the £OUCH! side for my pocket Vs the amount of use it would get. Been seriously looking at building my own which would cost a few quid and work off 12V but again, how often would i use it?

The beauty of it being flameless is the surrounding areas don't get fried, the heat is concentrated inside the coil and heats the nut more than the thread it's on. Oh yeah and less chance of burning through a rubber fuel or brake hose!
