But this is worse because of non standard bits. With screw drivers where you can change out bits i can grab any one off the table as needed and dispose of those that get damaged. You lose a bit from this one or it's damaged and you'll no longer be reaching for it.

Don't you think any of the long driver bits will work on this?

In the Q&A section someone said other bits didn't stay in and the responses said that they didn't make any replacement bits...yet.

Good catch, then its definitely a pass. I have the old version that uses standard bits for about 10 years now. It's not on sale but its only $16. Here is the link:

When I think about how a screwdriver is used, I have a hard time imagining how a ratcheting action would actually improve function (aside from making a fun clicking noise) – in fact the "spinning" of a standard driver in your hand seems like it would be much faster than twisting your hand back and forth to ratchet. Am I missing something obvious, or maybe a specific use case? Especially stubborn/high resistance screws are the only thing I can think of, in which case I'd be reaching for a bit holding ratchet or drill for more leverage. Maybe someone can enlighten me.

I got one of these as a work gift about 12 years back. It was an older version of this but i still have it and it's still my favorite screwdriver

I bought this in store, and it broke after 3-4 uses. Feels like something came loose inside and gets in the way of it ratcheting.

This isn't a regular ratcheting screwdriver. The gears in this screwdriver allows you to drive (or loosen) fasteners whether you're turning the handle left or right.

Bought 2 of these on a previous sale. The action isn't great but it works ok. The plastic for the screw cap for the bit storage broke on one of them. For $10, it's just ok.

I bought it to keep one upstairs for little one-off needs.

Also it does have a lifetime warranty on it. I've replaced my ph2 Phillips Kobalt screwdriver twice since it was stripped. The second time customer service said no they don't do that and I asked for a manager. When she asked the manager the manager told her yeah we do this all the time and showed her how to ring it out.

This thing is massive, twice the size of the Milwaukee. And looks like a light saber.
