Buying multi bit screwdrivers are a love/hate relationship, as soon as you buy one they come out with a cooler one with new features and bits.
I’m waiting for the 28 in one…needs a non-metric bottle opener
That's fine, by the time a new one comes out, I lost half the bits.
The better one is already out. I bought it months ago.
sure is.... years later after ya lost 1/2 of them, you contemplate life
Jesucristo te ama muchísimo, arrepiéntete de tus pecados y ten perdón de pecados en Su Nombre
Back when manufactures started using security screws, the bits were hard to find and somewhat expensive. Nowadays those screws are just annoying.
I agree. It’s like a lock that everyone can buy the keys for. 😂
Around 22 years ago I honestly considered paying a dude in Japan 50 bucks per driver for both sizes of NEC External Line Head drivers.
The “GameBits” as we called them were available here but you simply couldn’t fit a bit driver inside a Virtual Boy or GameCube and the melted pen trick rarely worked. About 15 years later I was finding them in 50 cent bins at the flea market after paying 3.50 for sets from China.
Heck, you can even see where I used a 50 cent one in the recording where I found drugs inside Nintendo games from another flea market (April 1, 2018… even though it wasn’t an April Fools). Guess whoever lost them was counting on the fact that inspectors wouldn’t have the right screwdrivers and would have to be SURE before tearing it open… so I guess they can still serve some purpose. ;)
Years ago I had a conversation with my Snap-On guy, regarding the difference between triple square and double hex, and we were fairly certain that a conspiracy had formed.
I'm an electrician who does work at the county jail sometimes, so the tamperproof comes in handy sometimes. It doesn't really matter, though, since the prisoners are so bored they can get any screw out with a piece of elastic from their cloths
LoL Those guys have a lot of time on their hands to figure stuff out. I had a friend that was a CO. He had some great stories.
@@FunkFPV I work at a mental institution, and yes, they have all day to find ways to f stuff up that I have to fix. A few years ago, we had a patient that would take screws out of all kinds of stuff, even door hinges! It didn't matter if they were security screws, or regular philips. They never could figure out how he was doing it, they would do regular shakedowns in his bedroom, and would frisk him every time he would leave or return to his room and never found any tools. I'm glad he moved on, lol.
Most of the security bits I use are full size, but I think I'll order one of these for those times when I have to deal with smaller screws.
From electrical work to small engine repair. I’ve been a fan of Klein for years. Solid tools built decent. No crazy stupid newfangled BS. Just the tool you need that’s going to last
Little tools like that may sit around unused for a while but as soon as you need them, they're worth their weight in gold. I have a lot of tools I may never open but Its saved me so many headaches and extra trips to the store to keep them on hand.
Bought one a while ago. I hate owning screw drivers, so consolidating all the tiny ones into one tiny one is perfect.
Klein makes the best pull out bit storage, throwing away my other screw drivers felt great
Been watching your stuff for a while, really enjoying the tool reviews, you do a fantastic job.
Just for information on the bits, 4mm and 1/4" are the 2 standard bit sizes. A 3.5mm would be proprietary. Makes sense as you can tell they were going for a slim shaft design which would require the bits to be smaller. I agree its probably not a huge deal considering like you said, it comes with basically everything youd need and as long as you dont lose them itll be fine.
Very cool. I’m sure it’s a good precision tool for multiple uses. In terms of strength, I’ve always opted for Wiha on job sites, BUT I’m sure it’ll do the job.
Also, Hobo Fart is now what I’m calling Harbor Freight.
😝👍🏻
That is great for home use because it’s so slim, but I have the Klein 15-in-1 ratcheting screwdriver and it’s actually really convenient. The ratcheting function is most useful in tight areas. It’s a lot easier to ratchet then having to regrip after every turn when you can barely get your hand in somewhere. You drop the screwdriver a lot less. It’s also a little faster then a regular screwdriver, not much though.
The nice thing about this screwdriver is the end cap spins, which essentially enables what you're describing. Also has a nice magnet.
The 15 in 1 is probably the bigger size which makes the ratchet handy in those tight spaces plus a bigger handle for more torque, it's not as likely you will find those precision type screws anywhere but electronics like battery door screws.
Is yours the earlier model or the newer one (newer looks similar to his)? I have the Doyle copy of the old one. I had used my buddy’s older Klein one that Doyle copied and liked it. Couldn’t find one and found out they’d stopped making them for the newer one. Tried the newer one and didn’t enjoy it (thinner and longer than the older one). So I bought the Doyle version.
This is what we need!! We need honest reviews!
Good review.
For magnetism Hobo Fart sells a magnetizer/demagnetizer block.
Very useful.
Hey Wes! Electrician from NH here. I highly recommend you buy these two drivers from klein, put them together to make a beast of of a 21 in 1 screw/nut driver.
Klein 32304 14-in-1
Klein 32907 7-in-1
You'll see what I mean!!
I’ll check them out. I might already have the 14in1 😉
Bro… you are saving me a small fortune with this one. I do a lot of work on guns outside. I have a Wiha precision set and all the time drop or lose the bit. There isn’t a magnet to secure the bit. I need something with decent quality that will stay in place. Thanks!
1:03 Thanks for explaining"ought" or "aught" to the whippersnappers. That knowledge transfers to buckshot and steel wool, too. I don't think they cover that in schools now.
They don’t cover anything practical in schools anymore.
I know exactly the difference, between buying tools for the shop. And buying tools for my shop! God bless you. And thank you for the information!
My favorite screwdriver with the bit I need 95% of the time is the one that will never leave my pouch unless I'm using it. But you gotta have that wild card option with you too... Klein does a darn good job with making the "just in case" driver, that does a million things, way less annoying.
I have the klein 4 in 1. I have a pocket screwdriver but I needed something just a little bigger/longer I could put some torque into. The tips are small and could easily snap if you put too much *umph* into a twist. It can easily fold up into a shirt pocket too! It was an impulse buy but it was worth it.
I ended up getting the Klein Tools 32717 as it has a case with more bits. I so far love the thing. It's my EDC
The Klein is a good choice--great use for the value!
Gonna grab one for RC trail repairs, really just need smaller hex in my neck of the woods but Klein hasn't really let me down over the years.
I like everything I’ve bought from them so far. It’s not “top tier” stuff but it’s good for the price.
bro you make me buy more tools that i didnt know i wanted or needed! love ur videos shout out from cincinnati!!!
😁👍🏻
You can turn any screwdriver into a magnetic one by slapping a magnet on the metal shaft. Useful for retrieving screws.
Makita make a magnet designed for sliding over 50mm long 1/4" bits (Makita B-42422), it's too small for use on standard drivers, the shaft on that driver tho, it's looks like it might slide over it.
Even better: Get a mag/demag block and wave your driver around on the Magnetize side. ;)
@@emmettturner9452That's what I do.
Mag/Demag block is a MUST.
That’s slick. I need those micro bits. I have a Wera 20 and the Tool Check which works WONDERS with my Milwaukee Install driver, but there are some TINY screws I come across at work every so often that need special attention. This little dude in the backpack would solve some issues for me. Nice.
Not a fan of ratcheting drivers. I also like that it's only slightly magnetized. You can hold the screw, but not have the tip pulling itself into everything around it.
I picked up a Milwaukee multi bit screwdriver for my daughter. I love it but can’t find another for myself.😮 This one seems like a good one to go with.
Just purchased one. Thanks for the demonstration and link.
Commenting to support channel looking forward to this review . Thanks funk !
Much appreciated 😎👍🏻
Looks like I'm stopping by Lowe's when I go shopping again. 😅😊😊❤
Looks just like the milwaukee one i was interested in.
Thanks for the review. I have the Klein 32581 4-in-1 which is nice for disassembling most laptops, and other gadgets. The Torx and security bits make 32327 worth the extra $6 or $7 more. Time to upgrade.
I’m too broke to spend 20 bucks on a screwdriver right now but DO WANT. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. I absolutely hate having to use my dedicated drivers on a lot of recessed security bits that don’t fit a bit driver shaft.
Maybe Santa Claus will get you one for Christmas 🎄 😜
looks good for what it is. As u said, for home use. It does look light weight. (as in, not meant for everyday use)
I see that over the pond it's about $20 but here in the UK they're asking £43. A great review of a tool I'll never own! 😂
Worked for a lighting company. Always used Kline like the one you just showed. Ran into all types of different screw heads. Nice to have it on my side pouch, instead of having to keep. mutual screw drivers. And Kline always makes good quality tools. Little on the prices side, but if you don't want busted knuckles, then by well made tools.
Time for another raid on the Klein section at Lowe's.
Also, you may want to look at the Klein 56412 and 56403 lights.
I like that driver. I like Klein Tools too so, might give it a go.
as a low-voltage tech, I can vouch for this drive for alarm panel work and such
I was unaware Klein made this,. I have the 11 in 1 that i use daily. Definitely going to pick this one up. Thanks.
THANKS WESS! 👍
Love this screwdriver, the magnet is about the best I've encountered in a screwdriver.
The adjustable length stunby screwdriver is 👌 as well.
I really like that Klein stubby...you can even pull the shaft out and use it in a drill or impact driver. Sweet little tool.
@@eyellgeteven9928 killer profile pic btw. Underrated album.
@@Environmenthrall Thanks! In my opinion, Motörhead never put out a bad album.
@@eyellgeteven9928 agreed!
My uncle who's a certified electrician uses Klein tools. Years ago i asked him what's so special about his multi screwdriver. He said its made for electricians and the insulated handle can protect you from gettin electicuted from (i believe) around 1,000 volts.
That's a lot in a neat little package.
Putting this on a list, I love buying tools 😂
Great review, thanks for sharing.
I did not know that I need one of those!
Good to know.... ive been trying to find something to fit my milwaukee fan to remove the cover to clean the blades 👍
I know what's on my Christmas list!
My school is sponsored by them and all the tools we got for the school are okay, they last, not made cheaply, like all things they have some cheese but I would say there an okay company for day to day tools, power tools idk never used one don’t even know if they have any but for what I got from school things work good
I grabbed one of these a while back because I have a problem (a screwdriver or sharp pointiy stick may solve it permanently), but that is unacceptableto some. So, I keep this in my small toolbox in the kitchen and grab it has gotten plenty of use. I picked up another one to keep in my 'go bag' in the car. Super handy when I get called to (kin ya pop over and take a look at . . .)
That's pretty sweet! I haven't found a lot of precision sets with that many bits outside of Hypertough at Walmart. I'll be looking at Lowes I think.
I bought a Hypertough set out of curiosity...lots of different bits, but the plastic case was too fragile.
@@eyellgeteven9928 Something about those cheap sets. They just don't hesitate to cut quality on the case first. I'd pay an extra few bucks for a nice case. Ryobi has finally started to switch over to better cSes, but most of those old ones are still around too sadly.
You'll never talk me out of my Milwaukee 9-in-1 ratcheting screw driver and its baby brother the 8-in-1 compact ratcheting screw driver. Far better than any other multi-bit screw drivers because they have the long skinny shafts instead of the bulky fat bit ends. If I need anything other than the bits it covers, I'm probably reaching for me iFixit Pro Tech Toolkit at that point.
Not sure if the Klein bits are proprietary, but 4mm size is more common. Wiha and Wera sell kits and drivers for 4mm bits. I have an adapter from Wiha that lets me drive 4mm bits with a 1/4" hex tool.
Got one it’s great
love your stuff. Gonna have to whip out my credit card.
I have one very similar to that a buddy got for me. Comes in a plastic case with 39 different tips. The shaft of the screwdriver comes out and reverses to a longer length.
The shaft is what got your attention.
😜
I use this in my tech tool set daily
good for that drawer in the kitchen to grab when you don't wanna have to go out to the truck. Klein is good stuff though.
Great
More pieces i can loose and not replace
You should try the LTT screwdriver!
+1 to this. I'd love to hear his thoughts on the LTT screwdriver.
People keep saying that. I think I need to get on now 😁
Would like to see more ratcheting screwdrivers too
Co-worker lost one of my bits. It will, indeed, make you sad. The magnetic tip is okay. Unfortunately, it's still a little too thick to fit in some of the machines I work on, but it's a great multi driver, and it's constantly on my hip pouch!
You should try out the one with the retractable cover. It’s only a 4 in 1 but you can pull down the cover and protects you pocket. I use one everyday!
Have it. Like it.
I bought one a few months back to go in my work tool pouch, my only wish is that they made a slightly more portable short shaft version.
How’s the bit retention? Good retention?? Ball detent or magnetic? I have a Craftsman multi bit driver for like 25 years. It’s okay, but had a few instances where the bit has grabbed onto a screw and separated from the driver while in a deep recess like you demonstrated here. That’s annoying.
It’s magnetic. I know what you’re talking about with the bits sticking. I don’t think it’ll be a problem with the tiny screws.
Late to the party, but yes the 3.5 mm bits on the Klein are non standard. Most multi bit precision drivers will use a 4mm hex shank.
Oh! Slim, Nice.
NICE 🎉🎉🎉
This is exactly how i got mone too. It has a great tool candy factor. I have used it so often thonit was worth it.
If all the bits would fit in the handle it would be nice, as you could toss it in a tool bag and be sure that you would not lose the proprietary bits.
4:20
Maybe Klein is referring to the magnet that holds the bit so it can’t fall out…?
Shhh... you had me at Klein
If it was a Canadian version all the last bit options at the bottom would be replaced by the Roberston (Square head screws) which basically do the same thing as Philips.
So Canadian's would miss out on all the other options because they have to have bot Philips and Robertsons in their pouches. No extra value but extra cost and weight.
Good to know the shaft is really thin ! This a thing i was struggling with with all my multibits screwdrivers and always had to keep lot screwdrivers in my work backpack . I will finally be able to put them in the backup toolbox in the van.
I've got a 14-in-1 and my only complaint is that the bits and the retaining ball tend to get a very light, sparse rust on them and when that happens they get stuck in the bit holder. To the point where you need to jerk it out with pliers. Either cycle the bits around every 3 to 6 months or keep a light oil on it.
Been using the the 4-1 for years but the black grippy part always slides forward and becomes enlarged/loose.
Would be great if they're not proprietary, so you could dial in the exact sizes you would need...🤔
I always find of I need t20... It stops at t15, 3mm hex I need 3/32 etc etc
Slim shank 👍
Nice review
There's a better one out. A few more bits, awesome case, and the shaft flips around to extend the reach.
I bet Klein sell replacement bits. They do for the standard multi drivers.
So, just curious. I can see that the individual bits are double-sided, but the tool is listed as 27-in-1, and I notice that 27 is an odd number. Is one of the bits single-sided, or is there another use for the tool that isn't included in the bits? Or maybe one of the bits is the same on both ends?
LoL I didn’t think of that. I guess if you pull the bit out you can use it as a 3.5mm driver 🤷🏻♂️😜
The fact that it has no Robertson/Square Drive (big in Canada) makes me sad, as that's exactly the kind of screwdriver I need.
At 2 minutes in I was gonna add it to my shopping list and move on to next dumb waste-of-time video but you're too funny to pass up. Thanks.
I bought one of those with standard 1/4 drive bits on it. Then proceeded to use them in my impact driver, because I’m lazy and why use a hand tool when you can abuse a power tool. And over torque things.
Wes, your videos are a public service.
I used mine last night to put batteries in a megger
You should try magnetizing it.
Good review. What's your thoughts for everyday use. I work in maintenance for a major auto manufacturer. Think it would last and take abuse cause you know everything is a hammer, lol
Haha My only concern would be dropping one of those tiny bits and it vanishing 😜
👍‼️
Nice and thin, sure, but good luck trying to grip it with Magic Pliers for extra torque on a stuck lug bolt whilst standing barefoot
I believe Milwaukee also has a 27 in 1 but theirs has ratchet function and removeable shaft. Not sure about the shaft thickness.
There are only three draw backs to multibit drivers.
1. i always lose bits.
2. the stupid shaft is always bigger than where i need the bloody thing to go.
3. they never include that 'one' bit you always seem to need.
lol
20 bucks, sure ❤
Better than Pittsburgh, my set already has bent from like 3 foot pounds of torque 😂
When will we see full size bits for that?
It looks like the handle is flat so you could set it down standing point up. I notice most drivers have a rounded end so you can't stand them that way and wonder why. Best I can guess is tool makers don't want users to absentmindedly leave them standing with the point up where a kid might fall on them. Can't think of anyone better to opine on this than @FunkFPV
i'm glad you pointed out that the bits might be proprietary. ya..... i'll pass lol
great video.
Have you tried the ltt screwdriver by chance?
No, I might pick on up just to check it out but it’s not something I’d normally buy.
What do you mean used to fly fpv?! I missed a video.
No Robertson? No good in Canada! The Klien 11 in one is grat tho)
More specialty bits, then precision bits.
The bit holders need work, since they let bits go.
