This is a great tool addition to my quick grab and go tool bag I use just around the house. I like the very tight fit the bits have with all the old and new fasteners I deal with in my vintage home.
My biggest concern with it is the bits. I wonder if you can buy replacement bits. I have a bunch of these multi bit screwdrivers and I always loose the bits.
Great question. These bits are more unique compared to others out there. Klein tools has their own “Klein Connection” website with replacements but a quick look didn’t turn up these replacements. They might not be available due to how new they are or you might need to dig a little deeper on their website. Thanks for chiming in. 👍🏻
I own several different Klein multibit screwdrivers, and have been happy with all of them. For the space they take up in the kitchen drawer....it gives me a lot of options. But I have no idea what those two Combo bits are for? I usually want more Torx sizes but this does have a lot of the basics already.
The combo bits you are referring to are called ECX. They are a combination of a square (Roberson) drive and a flat head screwdriver. These screws are common in electrical on outlets, circuit breakers, etc. The side wiring screws on an outlet, as well as the screws that fasten the outlet to the junction box use these. Most people just use a Phillips head screwdriver or flat screwdriver for these tasks, but these ecx bits work much better. They allow you to tighten down much more firmly on the wire and it is much less likely that your driver will slide off the faster causing you to impale your hand.
@@apex8665 thanks for taking time to explain the ECX drivers. That makes much more sense that these were designed to work with electrical components. Please consider sticking around and subscribing for more in depth content. 👍🏻
I love all my Klein tools. Good review😊
I can’t blame you. They seem to usually hit the mark. Appreciate you commenting👍🏻

Excellent. Glad to hear it’s a great fit for your needs. 👍🏻
I just picked one up today. There is also a 13 in 1 that is very similar.
@@MarcoH72 you are correct. 👍🏻
I think it would be better if the bit set deeper it would take out some of the wobble.
Agreed.

I have bought replacement bits from klein for older drivers, so klein might have these bits in the future
@@alvilla701 yes I imagine they will be available soon.

Yea they make good drivers. This one is an excellent ratcheting variant and plenty of standard bits most use.
The two combination bits are specifically used for electrical components it fits more securely in the screws than a Phillips, flat or square do.

@@ropeguy20 thanks for the heads up. I don’t use those but I figured they would have been electric related. 👍🏻

Don't buy the milwaukee. The back drag makes the purse of the ratchet worthless
Yea I’m not too happy with it considering the price and overall refinement of Kleins. 👍🏻
Not very robust...How much $$ ?
Better than most. Especially for $21. 👍🏻
I’ll never buy a tool with bits that aren’t standard.
@@tgsparkyoriginal 👍🏻
they need to make this for short bits
They do fit.
