Its a male/female 4 pin molex connector extraction tool.

Heres a quick video on how it works. This guy is bashing the "Cheap $8 amazon tool" but hes trying to use it on automotive molex connectors instead of PC molex connectors. Might not work properly on automotive molex connectors but it works fine on PC molex connectors. The removal tools he had were much nicer but its not something I use enough to justify buying nice tools for it.

 
Ok so it's for BIG "OS&Y" water values packing puller. I need them for work got a couple different sizes.. here's a video how it's used at 1.18 in video

That guy looks like he's just breaking every electric tab out of that connector... all you need is a tiny flat head to bend the hooks in and it's out... wow some videos show some crazy ideas... I watched alot of them with I fixed the edge.. like the one how to jump start my edge with just a wire...🤣🤣🤣🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

You can use a tiny flathead but the tool makes it a lot easier and faster to do if you need to do a bunch of them which sometimes I need to do for custom PC builds.

Oh I completely understand that... I wasn't saying you DON'T need that tool... for what you do with PCs "hell yeah"... but that connector wasn't for a pc rite? That looked more for a car or something.
💩 I would want something like that if I had to do it over and over also... on little tiny wires

Yeah I'm assuming what he was doing was automotive connectors. Those definitely werent PC connectors.
 
This is a fun little game that you started WOLF.. Any other weird but useful tools that you guys use at work or at home???

I'm still kicking my self about the slot car set up board..🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️
 
That's a fuse tester or light tester??
Or could be a zip tie tightening and cutting tool
But I'm leaning toward a fuse or light tester
