Review on πŸ”§ Klein Tools 32614 Electronic Screwdriver by Mark Dahmer

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Great/unique idea, bad design.

My experience with this tool is consistent with many others who have given negative feedback on this product. I had five or six months to really try this tool out in the field. As a fire inspector, I constantly use pocket screwdrivers for checking, and while I love the idea of a screwdriver, it doesn't justify the price. The thing holding it in the stylus is an incredibly small magnet that has since lost its magnetism, allowing the wand to fall out without much resistance. In contrast, the more affordable Klein 4-in-1 has a stronger, thinner stem. which is mechanically held and lasts much longer. However, beats from this series are a constant problem because they are SOFT. I personally would like to see stiffer bits - I'd rather snap the bits off than bend them into an unusable shape.

Pros
  • Durable finish
Cons
  • Communication with seller
