What are the best screwdrivers tool for computer technicians?

Hey guys i'm Joyee and i have a question and i think all you guys like Repairing so maybe also people that know much about screwdrivers tool?

I'm about to buy a scredriver hardware but i don't know for wich one i should go so my question is, Which screwdriver is the best?

My needs:
->31-in-1 interchangeable precise manual tool set.
-Professional portable hardware tools.
-Light weight, compact design.
-PP&TPR material, non-slip handle.

Also if you have a screwdriver tool u enjoy a lot, post it here, maybe even pictures or maybe even music video's of music that you listen!

I researched the inet and found 2 interesting ones, just wondered if anyone has one and which (if any) i should try?

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

First one:
JACKLY Brand 32 in 1 Magnetic Screwdriver Precision Screw Driver Tool


Second One:
JAKEMY JM-8139 Anti-drop Electronic 43 in 1 Precision Screwdriver Hardware

 

I would suggest "Wiha". They are a manufacturer out of Germany, their tools are top-rate and will last a lifetime. You can get drivers for flat, posidriv (philips), torx and hex.

Cheap drivers are not made of very good steel and begin to "cam out" of the screws, tearing up the screw and leaving you with some screws that cannot be removed unless they are drilled out.

Google: Wiha precision screwdriver set

 

This is what I bought recently:

X-Acto X5262 Double Knife Set

Fixit Essential Electronics Toolkit

 

hi,tishers, i searched "wiha"by google and opened this site.wow,it is very professional website with tools.to be honest,i am really like them.but one thing i am worried about is the retail price that is much higher than my budget.ok.let me check it more and consider if i will get one on this site.

 

Sir,sorry,what i need is a screwdrive tool as i mentioned in my artical.Yours is a knife set.

 

the second kit is a full set my friend, it contains every screw driver you may need

 

I work in E,C & I but there maybe a few things that i use that maybe relevant to you guys

i would suggest "wera" tools expensive but really good quality look for there stuff with the interchangeable blades & they have a good ESD range

i have a similar set the one below this with out the fold out part that i always carry in my pocket & use almost daily

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Wera-05073...&keywords=Kraftform+Micro+Compact+Screwdriver


then replacing 90% of my larger screw drivers i have a similar set to this but with panel keys & no allenkey also i've removed the voltage tester screwdriver as they are banded on the sites i work on & have a decent cable stripper/side cutter combo there instead

this is a great little set for getting in tight spaces
don't bother with the extension part just put the bits straight in the hand has saved me a few times

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Bahco-2058...ie=UTF8&qid=1464597655&sr=1-40&keywords=bahco


recently picked up one of these for home use/ working on things out side of work: computers & just general fixing of stuff

There is no need to get branded stuff etc, just looks for some generic kit from eBay..

I literally bought a kit from a street market in India, cost me £1.50 and does everything I need it to do when I need to open my laptop..

You get what you pay for <shrug>, my tools are used 75% of the time for professional things related to my career, 25% of the time related to my hobbies. For +15 years I would buy the cheapest to just get by but then I would end up with some horrid little driver, wire cutter, plier, wrench or voltmeter that made the task much more complicated and frustrating. After being in the field someplace, cursing the screwdriver that stripped out the heads on a bunch of screws I found that it was much more relaxing to just buy the best tools and to do it only once.

While in college I worked part time as a bench technician, troubleshooting and repairing electronic circuit boards. We all developed a liking for a certain set of side-cutters (cutters made by Erem were my favorite). If you wanted to pull a prank on a co-worker you would sneak in to their tool drawer and borrow their favorite cutters and swap in something that was totally awful. It would be very funny for a few minutes and they would be running around, yelling and hollering about how their favorite chip cutters were missing.

Because they are so expensive I do not loan them out. In a few times where I did loan them out I would have unpleasant experiences; someone would lose one of a set, someone else would use a screwdriver as a chisel or a pry-bar, another person would use a pair of pliers to grab the handle to use it as a torque multiplier, marring up the plastic grips, and then some other person would leave them in a muddy puddle and they would get rusty. Unless you pay for your own stuff you do not appreciate the value of something.

 

Tishers, agreed.

Always buy what you can afford (and not necessarily what is your (initial) budget). Buying 'best' means buying with the long term in mind. The second you buy a replacement for a cheap solution is the second you've already spent too much. In almost any field.

You can't take it with you and neither will anyone else (ever)... may as well spend it as needed... $$$ is a tool that is useless if it sits in your bank account, your pocket, under your mattress or 'invested' in some extravagant meal for your tummy that is expelled tomorrow.

Yeah, sure... I understand budgets. But the thing with most of those budgets is that they are almost always/usually arbitrary (at least initially).

Understand what makes for a better quality item (for whatever you're comparing/needing to buy) and then set your budget accordingly. Save, beg or borrow (@ 'zero' % interest) to get what you (now) know you need. Always the best long term solution.

I can see most people balking at spending $200+ for tools when some of the computers they'll work on are worth less... but if you are like me and want to buy something only once in your lifetime; premium tools are worth their weight in gold for the reasons Tishers mentioned.

All of the tools that I still have around (decades later) are 'brand names' and were at or close to the top of the class when they were bought. All the others that somehow accumulate around here have been thrown in the trash (usually in anger and much cursing) after having destroyed a screw/bolt/etc. I was trying to remove or install (and usually, when other people were around too...). A tool by it's nature is there to help. If it doesn't do that, it doesn't belong in your 'tool' box period.

(I have a favorite pliers for decades that initially cost me more (net...) than I made in half a year of working... but with that single tool (pliers) I could twist, cut, trim and pull wires faster than any of the youngsters around me with their newer, but cheaper, gadgets).

 

Buy Wiha and know you have the finest. No better screwdrivers out there. Less frustrating to work with.
