It’s Not Just a Screwdriver

Screwdrivers are wonderful tools. The issue I have with some screwdrivers is that I can’t quite get it to fit where it needs to go. This is increasingly frustrating when working in small spaces, especially behind your desk! Well, now you can see a little better using this Spot On Screwdriver from HardToFindTools.com.

The Spot On Screwdriver has an LED light built into the end of it! This is the solution for the professional or hobbyist needing more then the available light to get the job done. Especially when you dont have an extra hand! Push the button and the light shines brightly on this work tool! A long lasting LED spotlight is built into the bit tip permitting you to locate the screw head in dark places. This premium, patent-pending screwdriver also features a contoured sure grip handle for comfort and maximum torque. Hardened and tempered vanadium blade is 4” inches in length. A must tool for automotive, electronic, appliance repair or work with small engines.

For only $24.95, this is a great deal. Having this frees up a hand, by not needing a separate flashlight. Anything that makes life easier for me is something I need, for sure.

That was great ending commentary. You sounded just like someone from the news. Now that I’m single I’m learning to be really handy around the house. I actually really enjoy being able to do things with tools. I even bought myself a pink tool set made for the small hands of a woman. It’s wonderful.

Honestly, a tool like that is crap. I personally find that any tool that wasn’t specifically designed to do ONE task does not work well. Curious though, how could the tip of the driver light up? It would have to be made of a non-metal.. weird..

I’m not positive but from the picture it looks like the shaft houses the led light just behind the very tip of the screw driver

Another great life-saving screwdriver is the one that can “break” at a certain point, up to a 90 degree angle. From what I hear, it works fantastic!

thats a really handy tool especially when working on certain things that really need a light so you would be able to screw in right

this a great screwdriver. i would buy it if it was magnetic. I hate dropping screws when i think that a Kewl screwdriver is magnetic. for the price it isnt that much of a price. if it was less it would be an OMG, buy but its a Ok, buy. ~~~~Google

It’s a clever idea, putting an LED on the tip of the screw driver, but I personally like those 5-in-1 screwdrivers with multiple tips. I know it doesn’t exactly help in the dark, but a screwdriver with a single tip can be just as much a pain. Even ones with LED’s on the tips. This is because you might not have the proper tip for the particular screw you are trying to use.

Thats great, there are many times when that would have come in quite handy for me. I’m sure I’ll be buying one soon.

I don’t know if you can get it in the USA but, for a few quid, I bought a Screwdriver Magnetiser / DeMagnetiser. It is great and does what it says on he tin. One swipe along the top will magnetise the screwdriver when needed. A swipe down the side will demag it before you place it near magnetic sensitive components or a workbench covered in sawdust.
It is great.
