More bits than you know what to do!

XOOL Precision Screwdriver Set 190 in 1 Professional Electronics Repair Tool Kit 164-bit Magnetic Screwdriver Set with Portable Oxford Case for repairing computer, PC, laptop, tablet and game consoles, a tool bag that can be expanded to provide access to all content. It doesn't look like any bits or connectors are too secure because when I open the box a bit the pry bar falls to the floor so I carefully check to make sure everything is inside, which should be there when you hit the mat unfold . for tools, right in the middle you have several rows of bits and there are so many different types here that I dare say there is probably a bit of everything here - as with any electronic device you will want to take apart You can probably find a little for him here. I'm not going to list all of the various details that are in here as they are listed in the ad and that would just be a waste of space. In addition to the bits, you have two different bits with screwdriver handles, one larger and one smaller. The larger has a retractable bit holder that can move from a flathead to a screwdriver, I'd say another 4 inches, with locking tabs, and the handle is large enough for a good grip if you need to use some force to pry something open. . The smaller screwdriver has a similar extension and smaller diameter for use with smaller bits for smaller screws. It has a varied batch of crowbars, including a couple of metal pallets which I can tell you from experience will come in handy (wish I'd had them in the past) so I know they'll come in handy in the future will be. There's also flexible hard drive expansion, but honestly I don't see where that would be practical. I've had these on other sets and to be honest I don't think I've ever used them. There's also a small suction cup with a key ring holder for removing the screens and a magnetic magnetizing/demagnetizing tool. On the other side of the pry bar tool kit is a magnetic screw fixing mat with a nice grid so you can remember if the screws will go or not. It's really handy to have something like this when using different sizes and threads. Screws for the device and a microfiber cloth to clean the screens. There are also a couple of guitar pick style scouting tools here, but as they lie loose I don't see a dedicated photo case so I'll keep them under a microfiber cloth as that should help hold them. on site. The middle part of the tool roll is attached to the main back of the roll with Velcro so you can remove it if it makes it easier for you to work on something you are working on. I need to fix the switch on one of my grandson's playground equipment, so let's see how handy the toolbox is. After using the repair kit I have to say it really worked. It was useful to have just the right bit 4 of the oddly shaped screws used in modern devices for security purposes. What's the point of this set? If you enjoy repairing yourself, whether you're a pro or a lazybones like me, this will come in handy.
