Also, this lead me to https://forum.multitool.org/index.php?topic=26042.0 this great thread. I have a Style PS surely it'll work the same, I'll check.
I have one of these for taking apart any small electronics: For $4, it does the job very well. https://www.pocketscrewdrivers.com/product_p/sp-171.htmI use a CT-34 a lot. For tinkering with computers, model railroading, and slot cars, it does the job. I did some troubleshooting on my General Dyamics laptop recently ,and it was used to open the cover that holds the WLAN card. So far, the only problem I've experienced (probably due to mine having been well used) is that the bits occasionally slip out of the carrier. Check eBay auctions regularly--I ended up getting one for $30, but having to replace one bit, which cost $3. But seriously, you can make a mess with cheap bits, they will round off screws. I strongly recommend getting a good set of bits and a small case to carry them in. I have several precisions screwdrivers (and small bit sets) in pencil cases, metal tins, and shaving kit bags strewn all over the house.
I should get some higher quality stuff like Wiha or Wera probably but I am not at all sure that they will really last any longer in the end though they would likely have better fit and purchase in the fasteners at all times?

Closer tolerances on either will give better fit, but the standards are supposed to make sure there is a good fit.My experience is that there are many bits, included decent branded ones, that might not be quite optimal with either fit or choice of material. I've found it hard to judge by price alone as some bits that are branded and expensive are just as quickly worn as the cheapest, and some inexpensive ones have good grip and don't seem to wear much at all. (By this point I try to avoid cheap blacked metal ones, but apart from that I go all over the place for bits). I do have many Wera bits and they do work well and consistently at that. I've destroyed some of those too, but at a lower rate. To the degree that means I get less rounded heads, and less issues and wasted time with having to get out screws with rounded heads, the price difference is worth it. That said I also got some cheap unbranded ones I've had for years that I've come to trust equally much.In short, I'm not sure if we always get what we pay for with bits: Some brands like Wera do make consistently good ones, some other brands don't, and some inexpensive ones are actually great. (Overall I'll say most bits are on the bad side almost regardless of price).
