I am looking for a good all in one bit kit for using with my 1/4" impact. Would really like a kit or maybe 2 that have everything from drill bits to sockets. I also would prefer not to have any of the bits used with the magnetic driver. I tend to misplace or lose these bits and they never seem to sit great in the magnetic receiver.

Let me know what you have or use.

I use the Bosch custom case system to keep my power impact bits (the power bits are 2" long and have the power groove. Some impact drivers will only take this type of bit, though you can use them in any regular magnetic holder. Bosch also sells an impact-rated extension, which holds bits with a ring/spring rather than a magnet. The custom case has room for 4 power bit holders (each holder has 8 bit slots), or 8 insert bit holders, or a combination. Their power bit holder with a Phillips selection has 2 #1, 4#2, and 2 #3 power bits, likewise a similar mixed selection with their square and torx holders. You can use the 4th holder slot or not. I keep extra spares in that one of most used/abused power bits. The empty case is $6 at Amazon, and the insert clips filled with bits are about $9 each.

Look at Milwaukee for all in one set but I like Irwin 40 piece for longer bit sets

Depending on what sizes you want wiha individual might be better to piece together

Hit up Home Depot and grab some Milwaukee's. I have a set in my shed, a set in my garage and another one in the house.

I have a set of either Wera or Wiha impact rated bit holders that I bought to keep in the case with my hand impact driver. I bought all drive sizes so I could use screwdriver bits in a rattle gun or shake 'n' break if I had to as well. Unfortunately now I can't find them online, and the impact driver case is in my storage locker so I can't look :/ Pretty sure I bought them from KC Tool but I am having no joy with the interwebs at the moment. (my hand impact is a Snap-On so the bits that came with it were permanently installed in holders, but I wanted to also use my Vessel JIS impact bits with it.)
