Lisle 64250 Right Angle Screwdriver Review

Very smart device. It has a single sided bearing design and uses a smooth round shaft on the bit. The direction depends on which side of the handle you insert the bit. Smart, smooth. Definitely in tight spaces. Would have liked more bits or a 1/4 hex, but great with Phillips and Flatheads. I recommend!

I got my original a year ago and couldn't be without it. Decided to buy a spare and couldn't be happier. The bit handles may have changed a bit (different plastic), but the handle is just as high quality, solid as my original from over 15 years ago.

Sockets are too large to fit in tight spaces. I was hoping I could use it with short hex shank screwdrivers. That does not work. It claims to work with 1/4" round shank screwdrivers. Flathead screwdrivers have a blade that sticks out on the sides and doesn't work at all. My Phillips screwdrivers have different shank sizes. I found the right one. Otherwise it seems well built to be.

Bought these many years ago and was very pleased when they appeared on Revain recently. Single sided roller bearing means no resistance when moving the handle back. It also works with any Phillips screwdriver with a 1/4" shank. For use with a flathead screwdriver, the blade width should not exceed 1/4". To be able to hold the screwdriver in place and use it gently with the handle Twisting the Lisa allowed me to remove many of the "hard to remove" screws I recently bought a few to give away.
