Jackfly Precision Screwdriver from DD4.com

BRiteBak

Hi all I recently purchased this screwdriver set from dd4.com and was impressed with this budget option

I purchased it from here: http://www.dd4.com/goods/New-6089A-45-in-1-Precision-Torx-Screwdriver-Cell-Phone-Repair-Tool-Set-Tweezer-Mobile-Phone-Tool-Kit_54270.html

and had it arrive in about 2 weeks to my door in Aus. I have used it a few times now and have found it to be of good quality

It offers a lower end option to the ifixit pro tool kit Linus uses and performs essentially the same functions at a fraction of the cost.

 

Overall if you are not ready to make the investment of buying a full size professional kit and have a project you are working on I would recommend this kit as a great starting point to build upon.

Got a set that is pretty much spot on with this one (but blue). Got it for $1.5 at a fleamarket about 5 years ago (it was still sealed, so I assume it was new).

 

It's good for what it is, but I wouldn't put too much tension on the bits. I've had several break on me.

The tweezers are meh-ish. The dentistry ones I've been using for the last 15 years are definitely better :D

I have bought tons of these in the past, the handle is always low quality and the tips wind up shearing themselves to nubs. How does the driver feel? Especially the socket end. Does it feel loose or plasticy? Is it solid or metal all the way up into the plastic handle? And how hard are the tips? If its solid its worth the money for me. I have a good Black and Decker set but its not tech focused so there are a lot of larger sized and traditional bits but few small or esoteric bits.

 

A good quality set up is an investment.

The driver is all metal and sturdy, the bits feel like they may strip out after a while

Just for future reference, stuff like this doesn't belong in Tech News. This is more fitting in Member Reviews.
