A multi-mode air compressor pressure switch is disclosed. A first mode of operation of the switch has a first range that includes a first cut-out pressure and a first cut-in pressure. A second mode of operation of the switch has a second range that includes a second cut-out pressure and a second cut-in pressure. The second range is smaller than the first range. The second mode of operation adds compressor output over the first mode of operation to extend operable time of a tool that is connected to a compressor that is controlled by the first mode and the second mode.

Disclosed is an intermittent pressure switch for pneumatic valves to control pressure relief valves in oil and gas producing operations by directing the valve to open and close based on pressure parameters (pre)set by the user. This enables oil and gas wells to produce based on formation pressure buildup. The inventive switch consists of a box containing a pressure switch programmable from 0 to 5,000 psi, a 3-port solenoid valve, 24 volt battery system, solar panel, solar control charger, pressure gauge, circuit wiring, and pressure fittings.

Embodiments herein are directed to a portable diagnostic tool. The portable diagnostic tool includes a tool body, a first hexagonal shape, a second hexagonal shape, and a plurality of legs. The tool body has four peripheral edges, a top face and a bottom face positioned on an opposite side of the tool body. The first and second hexagonal shapes are disposed within the tool body extending through the top face and the bottom face. The second hexagonal shape is larger than the first hexagonal shape. Each of the plurality of legs extend from the same one of the four peripheral edges. Each of the plurality of legs are spaced apart and extend an equal length. Each one of the plurality of legs has a first surface and a second surface. The second surface has a tapered portion with respect to the first surface.
