Harbor Freight gets million dollar fine
Fine My rule has been that anything more complex than a screwdriver or combo wrench is not safe to buy from HF. Their power tools are certainly junk.

Well the fine is only for the trailer light kits it seems. Nothing else! But knowing what you need is also important! If you don't know you need side lights on a trailer then you need to do more research. And what happens when you buy the kit and have a longer trailer that requires a middle market lamp? Is that Harbor Freights fault for not knowing what it's going on?
Even though my primary hand tools are Craftsman and Snap-On, when I need something that I'll use tomorrow and not again for 5 years, I'm heading to HF.
