A brand thats really worth checking out is PB Swiss. I have used one during an internship, I asked the guy about it bcs I had never seen one of these. He said that it was his favorite screwdriver 😂 he has had it for 15y. It was a small 2mm wide one that had seen a lot of use but the tip was still in great shape! It was a company that builds and installs sensor packages to collect data on machinery for predictive maintenance. From steel mills to railway bridges, wind farms and facilities where they make gravel. Some really savage and varied working environments on a daily basis. I bought a set of their non insulated drivers, they are indeed very sturdy, extremely well made and perfectly finished. Every single driver has a serial number so they can trace the batch of steel they were made from, in case there is a manufacturing defect. They don’t f*ck around with the quality of their products.
@@htr5372 I have felo sets, but wera is my go to all the time and no, I don't like using tape to identify my tools - I work mostly alone, no need for custom marks
Love my wera set, I've got a red and sky blue edition. They're great, what I love is the slotted sizes have that 3.5mm size which is perfect for dimmer modules. Only downside is they don't have the slim tip, however I use the specific slotted/pozi head for rcbos.
Unless you are working on stainless its not worth it. They are more expensive and will wear out faster bcs they are not as hard as regular screwdrivers.
Wera missed a trick with Thier "Take it Easy" toolfinder system. They should've saved the different handle colours to decern between drive (Philips, pozi, flat, hex, Torx). They're not exactly consistent with the existing TIe system; look at a ToolcheckPlus and you'll see no collars to defer between drives. Shame really.
Indeed, the markings on the top will rub off over time as well. PB Swiss uses a colored cap, you can spot the type of driver from 15m away if ur familiar with the colors. It won’t rub off either as its solid plastic and not just some paint 🤷♂️
How many tools on average do you lose in your tool bag...
I have at least 6 of every tool because I can never find the tool when I'm doing a job, and then I end up buying it again!

Got the Wera Yellow, blue black stainless, also their Kraftform Plus Series 100 VDE Slim Tip set, comfortable handles,great quailty,nothing better.
Just ordered them
the yellow color is nice, but not being slim between the tip and slevee it’s not really a must have
And there not magnetic
@@htr5372 that's what I use with vde rating :) I'd like a yellow version for those tho
@@htr5372simply because it looks different than everything else ...as long as it's slim, vde rated, swapable bits and wera quality I'd be a buyer ...
@@htr5372 when you already have the function and cash to spend, form can be an added feature :)

I broke a wera #2 yesterday at half power that’s why I’m watching your video please do a durability test💪🏻

Yeah I got those as well with lasertip! And they're stainless steel :)
Glad you’re loving Wera too!
@@Tools4Sparks even came with a bottle opener, which is probably not VDE rated but good for when the work is done😂

@@claudyfocan731 haven’t had any issues so far mate
good to see you did not cut the plasic today. and yes I now had to get a set for my wera collection
Ive snapped the tips off two PH2 stainless Wera screwdrivers
Interesting. I got the same set but came with 2 Philips and 4 flathead
I may get these to mix with my other set to have easily identifiable Philips vrs pozi
That's a good shout because the markings on the end rub off after a while
Yes do a testvideo
A german youtuber has made ine already in comparison between wera knipex and wiha the knipex ones are basically rubbish
Are the knipex the Witte made ones?
FYI the link goes to the Philips & Slotted set, not the Pozidriv & Slotted set. Out of interest what are your preferences over PH or PZ?
Phillips version is much better fit than PZ for sparks.
Jordan, is it necessary to bend the cables? Can't you just cut the exposed copper shorter? :)
Kind regards

CK ones break easily in my opinion
Das ist die günstigere Variante der VDE Schraubendreher. Die roten sind besser 👍
No lasertip
ITL are the dog's bollocks. The Nylon 55 insulation they use is far more durable than anything else on the market, including Boddington's tools.

Never broken a screwdriver but they very often do seem to strip on the pozi's :(
Lasertip
This is just the inverted color of the usual 1000V electrical screwdrivers
That Crabtree instinct range is terrible. Shockingly poor quality from Crabtree
I dont like that they are not slim
It's excessively Costly. 6 pieces set Rs 8000 (Indian currency) as if it's made of Gold😅
I dont rate these. I prefer my older laser cut tip set.
not the slimline type? booooo
😁😁
