Also: 3 security gadgets I never leave home without This compact Wera screwdriver kit solves all that. Here’s a screwdriver kit I can pop into a pocket or bag, and not compromise on quality or power. And this screwdriver has some cool hidden tricks. First, it can go from a stubby to a long screwdriver (and back again) with the press of a button. This is super handy for tackling a variety of jobs. I was a little skeptical of this feature initially because I worried it would make the screwdriver flimsy, but it doesn’t. Also: This is the perfect mini electric screwdriver It gives me all the flexibility of a small screwdriver, and the ability to turn it into a bigger screwdriver for heavier jobs. The mechanism is super strong and reliable. I’ve leaned into this screwdriver with all my weight – I’m a big bloke – and it didn’t budge. The other hidden feature is the handle is home to six screwdriver bits, hidden away in a compartment that you access by pressing a button on the top. Press and pop! The bits in the handle are securely stored, so nothing rattles about! I love this design. It’s small enough for me to pop into my pocket for jobs where I know that I’ll only need a screwdriver – things like changing a graphics card or swapping out a lock on a door – but it’s versatile enough so I can be ready for anything. Also: These are my 3 must-have Raspberry Pi accessories The screwdriver is also magnetic, having a “just right” amount of magnetic pull – enough to keep a fastener on the bit, not so much that it’s being pulled all over the place inside a PC or some other delicate bit of kit. This screwdriver excels in a place where a lot of “multi” screwdrivers fail – it’s really tough. Despite the built-in mechanisms for the shank and handle, it feels very much like a regular screwdriver in the hand. Six bits not enough for your needs? That’s what I thought! So, not wanting to the lacking in the screwdriver bits department, I also got the 30-piece bit set I can pop in my pocket along with the screwdriver if I think I’m going to need more. This has a very good selection of slotted, Torx, hex, Phillips, and Pozidriv bits. These bits are hard-wearing and excellent quality. All in all, this is a great kit. The screwdriver is better, stronger, more versatile, and not much bigger than those multitools that people carry (in all honesty, I think this is a better alternative to expensive multitools for a fraction of the money), and even adding the extra bits doesn’t add much in the way of cost or bulk to the kit.
