Revainrating 5 out of 5

A good, very complete tool set for fine work and opening a wide variety of cell phone cases.

This set includes a wide range of metric and imperial screwdrivers and opening tools in a well organized box that closes securely. It has security bits up to Torx T20S which opened up my Panasonic microwave to set the door latch! Definitely wow! It's compact and takes up little space in your suitcase, so you can take it with you on trips if you're crazy like me. Qualitatively, the grip and extensions are nice and comfortable, except when used in a classic jeweler's grip (index finger rotated in gyroscope and shaft with ring and thumb) the rubber grip with O-ring is too far from the shaft for my middle finger to be comfortable and large hands . I can easily turn a screwdriver with a steel surface, so the torque these tools need to generate is irrelevant. The bits dangle slightly in the sockets on the tool handle, but are held securely by a magnet in each socket to prevent them from slipping out during use. Handles and bits are very well made. The angled tweezers are a bit coarse in comparison, but that's easily forgiven if you need to remove/replace the microflex on the board. The bits are not magnetized, making them difficult to use. A crazy plastic magnetizer/demagnetizer is included that can weakly magnetize individual bits - by stroking each bit with the device I think - if you want them to hold tiny screws for you and not be afraid they will damage electronic circuits. By the way, they can't. This myth originated in the days of the beautiful Swiss tick-tock clock, which contained impossibly small gears and springs that could actually be affected by magnetism. Modern electronic devices do not. MRI machines, for example, have very complex electronics working tirelessly alongside giant superconducting magnets, much, much more powerful than I could have imagined when I got into science. my tool boxes; They are VERY handy for catching and holding tiny bits trying to escape. I throw one into a metal bowl I'm working on or onto a large screwdriver blade to build a device I can use to grab or walk over rugs to pull out escaping bits. Look for something like "Neodymium Rare Earth Ring Magnets 1/2" x 1/4" Countersunk Head" ("Ring" and "Sunk Head" means they have a hole in the center so you can use them as strong mounts or latches I had could be attached to a string to easily run a cable in a wall or above the ceiling by slipping a second magnet under the ceiling to pull it towards the ceiling fan cutout Play with them. Don't let adults play with them. One is pretty safe, just unpredictable. Two will try to jump together with enough force to break themselves or pinch their skin painfully. They are extremely difficult to separate. Swallowed, the pair will attempt to do so even if they are in adjacent loops of intestine, requiring emergency surgeries, resulting in the deaths of curious children.
