    Over 100 dollars. I could have been one of the few people to purchase but it was too expensive. I already splurged on the LTT screwdriver this year so this one might have to be be on the list for next year.

    The ltt screwdriver just seems cheap to me and I don't really care for ratcheting screwdrivers I currently carry the kraftform kompakt but this looked slightly smaller than that but I'm not sure I can justify like $109 is what I have seen it for I paid like $40 for the kraftform and that seemed high since was going from a like $5 screwdriver

    @@james10739 Tried out a bunch of ratcheting screwdrivers including the Kraftform Compact. After 6 months LTT is by far the best everyday screwdriver. The plastic they use is high quality and every part of their design screams quality. Gotta say there is enough information out there to dispute that it's a plastic pos, definitely not. It is a very high quality tool. I will give you that the price is high and you can get a tool that does what the LTT does for cheaper, it's just not going to be as high quality.

    So you could, in theory, swap the head with the 1/4” head? Locking nut driver and put on the rapidaptor 1/4” adapter. No magnetic retention. Push button removal but not with the locking swivel switch. Solves your 1/4”-1/4” hex to square adapter. And from what you said the rapidaptor wrench adapter works well enough with the 13mm anvils.

    on the quarter inch adapter you could grind the rounded transition area between the hex and square to make if fit better.

    Can't see why you wouldn't just keep the 1/4" square adapter in the 13th position - the tip itself. But another option would be the Facom ECR.1 stubby hex/square adapter. That tip is a clever design, but they've borrowed it from the current Bosch Pro 18V impact driver. Unbelievably expensive.

    Backdrag on the ratchet. Do you mean the amount of drag when turning the opposite way to the intended way? Is backdrag really an issue? The amount of energy the hand uses when going backwards before pushing hard forwards again is so minimal…

    I actually also thought of this for bicycle use as well. I do own multitools specifically for bicycle use, but they are just too small and finicky. As I own a 12 speed bike and they no longer offer chain pins for those chains, there's really no use for a chainbreaker/rivet'er. That's why a tool like that zyklop does most of what you need and it will feel way better in use because it's way more ergonomic than most multitools.

    Some Wera products are better than others, and they do require a lighter touch versus more rugged tools that tend to be cheaper. But many of Wera’s designs and ergonomics are just better for daily use, even if they require more care.
