@LinusTechLTT Screwdriver when? Also any price range estimates?

 

The screwdriver will probably be ready when it's ready™ sometime soon™ although last I heard during a WAN show stream they're probably delayed into December or possibly the new year. No idea on price; your guess is as good as mine.

Most Linus has said is "coming soon". As for price, he said in a recent WAN Show that it's not going to be cheap. Luke suggest adding it in a bundle with a water bottle, t-shirt and the new bag for $300. Linus said that wouldn't be possible even with a bundle discount, specifically because of the cost of the screwdriver. Considering the bag is going to be $200-250, I'm pegging the screwdriver to be at least $50. The Snap-on screwdriver Linus originally rocked that started the craze retails for around $100. It actually wouldn't surprise me if the LTT screwdriver hits a similar price point.

I think Linus talked about it here, but I don't know if he mentioned any details regarding price or release date.

Regardless of price, I will probably end up buying two LTT screwdrivers. One for home because I need a good screwdriver just for PC stuff. The other for work where I'll really test it.

5800X3D / ASUS X570 Dark Hero / 32GB 3600mhz / EVGA RTX 3090ti FTW3 Ultra / Dell S3422DWG / Logitech G815 / Logitech G502 / Sennheiser HD 599

2021 Razer Blade 14 3070 / S23 Ultra

On of the very few snap on products worth buying is their ratcheting screwdrivers.  I have yet to find a comparable and I doubt the ltt branded ones will be worth the difference. 

However, if you're only using it a few times a year then it doesn't matter what you buy.

Been using the SnapOn for years like Linus, I've had a few, and they're amazing. I'm waiting for the LTT one now

Hey thanks for your feedback. I understand your disappointments, but we made those trade-offs knowing very well what the downsides would be. 

Saw your livestream today Re:Screwdriver (not the pooing fetish stuff) and I just wanted to say thanks for pushing through with this project even though its seems like you've hit EVERY roadblock on it. Shitty situation, but glad to see you're making it happen. Cant wait, I'll be buying a few.
