Time to join the club too!

It’s an interesting piece of equipment. Fits the Skeletool perfectly!

Had fun fooling around with it too - not sure how usable it’ll be with the extension for the Rebar and Spirit though  :whistle:

 Great photos Zephon!! :like: :like:

This chap made a nice test that should make everyone feel comfortable enough to use the ratchet driver without worry (ratchet driver mentioned at the end)  :tu:

Will have to give it a watch :cheers: Thanks for the link, Stitchy  :hatsoff:

I have used mine pretty hard since adding a handle to it and it has been very reliable so far  :woohoo:

Thanks!

I’m loving the compact simplicity of the tool.  It can practically go with most of the gear I have at home.

 :woohoo:

It's exactly like I have expected it to be. Nice and solid. The knob is a tad fiddly but fine.   :2tu:
A pitty though that it takes the place of my Fenix LD01 on the sheath now because it's too thick for the other side :dunno:

I've added two pics to illustrate the reach compared to other bit extenders  :hatsoff:

I'm not a big fan of normal ratcheting screw drivers. But for a Multitool where the handle is oddly shaped and off center this really helps a lot  :tu:

 :like:  ...great video too Poncho  :tu:

I was a bit skeptical about the LM ratcheting bit driver at first, but it has prooven to be solid and reliable to me.

It helped me putting a few screws at a narrow spot recently.

No fit with this one...



...not so good with that one either...



Ah, this one's alright  :D ...

Quick question for the ratchet driver users...
How well (or not) would the driver work in the 1/4 bit holder on a SOG PowerPint?
I know that the 711L ratchet supposedly works with one as it's shown in their video.

Thanks folks...

I think it works great.  The Power Pint grips it tightly and it also has a small magnet.  They complement each other quite well.

EDIT:  I just looked up the 711L ratchet.  Now I gotta get one of those.  :facepalm:

Sorry for the enabling bit, with the 711L, but now it seems that I've gotta get them both.   Good news though if you go through Amazon I believe that the 711L tool line is 20% off till Thursday. 😎
