LTT Ratcheting Screwdriver

Linus Tech Tips is releasing a new ratcheting screwdriver. Their goal was to build the best one on the market. They seem to have invested considerable time and development into this project, with significant attention to detail. There was a live stream yesterday of an event show where buyers...

I was at a meeting once and the senior guy there said,

If you can’t tell me in five minutes you can’t tell me.

100K sold. backordered until January. $70ea.

30 minutes? nah, I'll pass. maybe there's coles notes version that I could watch

It took 3 years to design because they took a 2 year, 9 month break to go fishing.

Who uses a screwdriver for more than 1-2 turns. More than that I'm getting a drill.

Big downside is it uses proprietary shorter bits. If you want to use regular 25mm bits, you can only fit 6 in the handle.

Why not just get the Megapro automotive version that takes 12 regular sized bits in the handle and costs less than 50% of the LTT?

Where did I put my cordless bit driver? Oh, yeah...there it is...

Another alternative (in the same price range as the LTT if you live in Europe):

I know....let's have a race. No power tools allowed.

Scenario: We have 25 fasteners to install a gasketed panel. Fasteners should be torqued to approximately 60 inch pounds.

You use that $70 ratcheting driver.
I'll use a $15 1/4" drive speed handle with a magnetic bit holder.

Ready...Set...Go!

That guy must be making a mint from his videos.

Cliff notes?

He's in Canada so Cole's Notes must be like Princess Auto.

I prefer the Classics Illustrated comic books instead, they're what the man-bun/skinny jeans set refers to as graphic novels these days.



I believe this fellow used PVC for his compressor airlines.

Had one these for years, thought it might be gimmicky at first but I use this little guy all the
time.
