. I like those shorter length Bits. Nice to have a shorter bit for some applications that is in between the standard AND the stubbies
 
The item in the picture is not a Festool product, but something cobbled together from the newly launched MiniSystainer with see-thru top (for sale for around 20 usd), an existing insert (I think Tanos sells these) and sundry Centrotec items. Whoever sells these makes a very nice profit.

You sure?https://www.festool.co.uk/products/systainer,-sortainer-and-systainer-port/systainer/203817---sys-ce-mini-1-tl-tra#Overview
 
The Amazon listing shown above and the one that I saw yesterday shows Festool as the provider. I doubt a third party putting together their own kits could show it as sold by Festool. At least I hope not!
 
It's definitely a Festool product. It was featured in one of their newsletters a couple of weeks ago.

What is noteworthy beside this set itself, is the transparent lid insert. It's available separately (at least in Germany) and will work with all mini Systainers: Tanos No.: 80590802. Placed in the lid of your Mini-Systainer it then covers the black sorting style (multiple compartment) inserts closely/firmly and ensures that everything stays sorted even when the Mini-Systainer tumbles/ is turned upside down. Being transparent it won't obstruct the view into closed Mini-Systainers that already have the transparent lid.

Kind regards,
Oliver

 
What’s strange (and / or interesting) is that two days ago I looked up this set up on Amazon and the price was $160 and it said that there were only two left. I purchased one. The next day, after reading this thread , I searched Amazon for it again. This time it told me that the price was $185 and that there were only two left. Let the conspiracy theories begin😊.

You created a demand for the product and Amazon answered by uping the price.  [big grin]  [big grin]
 
Yes maybe but it makes me wonder what the price was “at the beginning”. Actually I found it on Festool UK and the $160 was approximately equal to that price, once converted into USD.

$185?! Surely there must be some more accessories hiding underneath that top level.
  Was there another view with the Top Tray removed so you can see what might be underneath?  [blink]
 
I think thats it after all it is main systainer. I like the kit.

But dont have $185 right now.

But thats a good idea on buying a insert for a mini and make my own kit.

The mini is a lot easier to store and take out of drawers etc then a full blown Installers kit.

They do make a smaller kit no stubby bits but a selection of bits. I have one . Havnt used it much but I will now
