Milwaukee Quik Lok attachment hanger, for those curious about the teased accessory at the end. Tl;Dr on them is you can use it to hang m18 quik lok accessories.
I have the Klein 32328 precision screwdriver version, and really like it. It feels well made, and for the way I use it, it has a great collection of bits.
I don't think RUclips liked my original comment. There's a nice 30 in 1 gearless ratcheting extendable driver with a bit carousel and double sided bits at Parts-Express. I haven't been able to find them elsewhere in the U.S. Made in Taiwan by Kaemae, there are also flexable shaft versions and 1/4 bit versions on their website. I love mine for the $10, thanks for the videos Doc.
Also worth mentioning that it's see-through and has a stubby driver in the butt cap. If you're interested in 1/4 bits the Gedore 3301337 is a rebrand non gearless Kaemae extendable driver.
Mine arrived yesterday. I can't believe this is $10. This is amazing. My only minor grip is the extension doesn't lock from getting longer. You can pull it out when not using the adjuster. I assume the adjuster is just for bringing it in. It also wasn't clear at first where the stubby was. It's built into the cap. This is easily worth $30. It has zero back drag like my Hazet. On the Japanese site they have a lot of variations too. Thanks again for posting this.
@scotts4125 Awesome, I'm happy someone else likes it as well. I think it's a hidden gem, I almost think it could blow up like the Icon 1/4" bit ratchet set did. I'd love to find the gearless 1/4" bit version(KM-2031 on KaeMae's website) available somewhere.
Nice comparison. I’m looking forward to seeing a review of the County Comm driver; I still haven’t pulled the trigger on buying any of their tools yet, but thanks to your videos I’ve spent some time on their site.
I have the County Comm driver, it's very nice. But I got it at a great sale price. I think they are charging $90 now for it, and for that you better really need a Ti body handle.
You have convinced me after watching several of your videos on Kline tools that's the first tools I'll look at. For some reason I think Milwaukee just looks cheap. Thanks Doc
I got the vaco version and is almost identical to the klein, just less expensive. Vaco has a few klein replicas that feel better in the hand, hold up as well and priced lowerl.
I’m an honest believer in tools like this you get as cheap as possible. When dealing with screws that small you are never going to run into a situation where the bits are not going to be good enough
I have a zillion quarter inch and 4mm bits. And drivers, adapters, extensions, etc. for those two sizes. Not at all interested in adding 3.5 mm to the list.
I agree with this, although one good thing about them being smaller than 4mm is that you can't lose a single ended bit inside it. I accidentally stuck a single ended bit in a Milwaukee ratcheting screwdriver and it was a PITA to get it out.
What are these people complaining about “proprietary” bit, almost a decade of Klein using 3.5mm bits. Klein’s 32581 that was released back in 2016 is 3.5mm. 1) 3.5mm bits are double side. 2) 3.5mm bit driver shafts are long and only 5.5mm OD. So they reach recessed screws that would typically require a fixed shaft screwdriver. 3) 4mm bit drivers are 4 to 6 times shorter with a 7mm to 9mm OD
Milwaukee is such a great company, esp when it comes to power tools. Little disappointing to see them straight up just ripping off Klein with all these hand tools
hang on... isn't the de-facto generally adopted ad-hoc standard supposed to be 4mm instead? as per other manufacturers like wera and wiha (aka 'c4')... i have literally hundreds of precision bits here all of them are 4mm including the chinese kits. now i understand there can be a need for different bit sizes and lengths etc. which deviates for a specific purpose but... at least try to keep a consistent 4mm hex diameter maybe? if the difference between 3.5 and 4.0 is not significant, otherwise its going to be easy to mix them up and gets all confused
There should ALWAYS be a little friction going in. True stuff! Really enjoy my Klein. This was a great comparison, thank you!

I got the Klein version recently. It is nice to have a good variety in one tool.
Thanks, I've been looking at the Klein variations. 👍😊

Great timing! Literally just picked both these up.

Thanks for that I just ordered one. My favorite ratchet screwdriver is my Hazet gearless.

do you have any links for that ? cant find it...

Maybe it's time to make a video detailing how one organizes and stores half a million tools. We need to know.

When I say as cheap as possible, I mean as in price of the name brand.
I would think the opposite, the bits should be the best quality if your going to use it more than once so the bits dont strip out
....of you can set both aside and get the Klein 40-piece set. Model #32717G for about $30.
I have the Klein 32427 27-IN-1 TECH. I don’t think mine has the bit for the iPhone.

Agreed

Whats next? 3.5mm Banana jacks! Really dislike things that use proprietary sizes etc etc.
Boo Hiss...

I been trying to figure out the same thing, 3.5mm seems to be most common
The Milwaukee Knock-offs of the Klein's are just that. The Dollar store feel of the plastic on this one is a turn off too.
Milwaukee is such a great company, esp when it comes to power tools. Little disappointing to see them straight up just ripping off Klein with all these hand tools
What’s the black thing at the end?
Milwaukee weedeater accessory hanger
hang on... isn't the de-facto generally adopted ad-hoc standard supposed to be 4mm instead? as per other manufacturers like wera and wiha (aka 'c4')... i have literally hundreds of precision bits here all of them are 4mm including the chinese kits. now i understand there can be a need for different bit sizes and lengths etc. which deviates for a specific purpose but... at least try to keep a consistent 4mm hex diameter maybe? if the difference between 3.5 and 4.0 is not significant, otherwise its going to be easy to mix them up and gets all confused
kinda silly to rely strictly on a magnet to hold the bit when they are double ended. Klein for the win.
I have the MegaPro precision driver version of these and it seems nicer than both.
G lock parts tray lol
STOP MAKING PROPRIETARY BITS
Anyone can make these bits, so they're not proprietary. Just uncommon.
Not proprietary - just not the standard 4mm - 3.5 could become a new standard. He shows in the video that they are interchangeable.
