I was looking for some info/opinions on this screwdriver, but couldn't find anything on this forum
Must be really new. Anyone seen one or owns one? Is it any good? It looks like it has some interesting features I've never seen on other ratcheting screwdrivers (the T-handle and stubby driver)

Not seen the ACL.2a in person yet, most places stock the ACL.1a which is as good if not better than the other Pro makes out there but a lot cheaper. Look around and you can find it for as little as £20.

havent used them before to work with. played with it in the store. Seemed decent enough.

As a facom addict I liked it. But in my case i prefer the normal screwdrivers..

Nice to see someone else from Belgium on here!

Aha! A fellow Belgian tool addict Which store had these, stores around here don't seem to stock them.
Btw, quickly looked through your posts, very nice torque wrenches! 2dehands/2emaine.be?

Maybe Ulgar will weigh in, he is a Facom dealer here in the US

Was looking at this on the Ultgar site last week. Looks interesting. I know from experience that the Protwist grips are comfy and I like that it has bit storage in the handle.

Looks like 3 different configuration with what appears to be 3 different prices, looks good though and I have Facom tools and like them a lot so I am sure this one will not disappoint!

Nice job Facom!!

The Facom ACL.2A and Wera Vario ratcheting mechanisms look somewhat similar. I wonder if the blades are interchangeable?

Facom does not offer a 1/4" square drive blade (yet) but Wera does. If the blades are interchangeable I'm all set.
