Pro Tech Toolkit

I build pcs a lot and tinker with things like repairing mice, laptops, anything really. The screwdriver and screw bits are worth it alone, some of the bits are really hard to come by, for example the star driver bits that are included in this kit. The plastic tools that come with the ifixit kits are not the best quality though... you can't expect too much for the price but they do break quite easily. Screw driver has a nice grip, very easy to use and the cover for the screw box is magnectic and very handy to store screws in as you're dismantling something.

I bought this just over a week ago, and so far I've already used it to open up and clean my nephew's laptop, and open up and repair an old Panasonic sound bar. There are tools inside for almost every conceivable use, and a few that I don't even know what they're for. There are driver heads for almost everything, and a few I don't recognise (perhaps they are for some proprietary screws used by some manufacturers? I don't know). These heads are all on the small side, so you won't - for example - get a larger-girth Phillips head bit, but chances are high that those are the kinds of driver heads you already have an ample supply of. They are magnetic, though, decently so. I was able to pull out some reasonably long screws from a laptop entirely with the magnet, and they didn't fall. Unfortunately, the driver bits have some kind of non-standard, narrow shank I've not seen before, so I can't use them with my main ratcheting screwdriver or any other socketed screwdrivers for that matter, so you're stuck with using the screwdriver that came with the kit. The screwdriver itself is... fine. It feels nice in the hand and is made from metal. The blue top freely rotates, so you can hold it steady with one hand and rotate the driver below with another, and the grip is well-textured. It's on the thin side, so if you've got a particularly tight screw you might fail to get much purchase, but I haven't had problems so far. It also comes with a flexible extension, allowing you to unscrew things at weird angles in hard-to-reach places. The driver set is contained in a very sturdy ABS case. The lid is firmly held on magnetically, and the whole case attaches to the fabric container via a magnetic plate. When the case is removed, you can slide this magnetic plate out of the fabric kit and use it to keep screws in place. Other tools include various prising tools and spudgers, several different sets of tweezers (which all feel impressive to use and very sturdy), an anti-static wristband, and a suction cup (which I haven't had cause to use yet, so I don't know how effective it is). Everything in the set feels very high quality. I don't see any of it wearing out any time soon. It's a fantastic kit and should have almost everything you'll ever need to perform electronics surgery on your gizmos. A little on the expensive side (including a small soldering iron as well might have sweetened the deal, and would make this kid 'complete'), but you get what you pay for, I suppose.

This kit contains quite possibly everything you'll need to get started repairing your own tech devices such as phones, tablets, laptops, game consoles etc. The screwdriver bits and other included tools appear to be very high quality and will not break or crumble like cheaper alternatives do. The blue plastic spudgers are designed in a way where they will break if you use too much pressure trying to open a device, and they do this to stop you from breaking the actual device. There is an anti-static wrist strap included which is an absolute must-have, especially if your home or work environment has carpet flooring. Static sometimes builds up in your body and is silent but can be deadly to your electronics. The included user guide advises you on various ways to use the wrist strap. The suction cup tool is handy for lifting screens up on phones or tablets, if the screen is cracked, sticky tape should be applied over the cracked area to reduce the chance of the suction cup not doing its job properly. Amongst all this, there are various other tools included such as tweezers, pick tools and pry tools. These are all pretty self-explanatory. There's a plastic container which contains all the screwdriver bits (64 of them in total), the actual screwdriver tool and an extension tool for screws in hard-to-reach places. On the lid of the screwdriver bit container, there's a sorting grid for keeping small screws safe when you're working on an electronic, and inside the fabric outer case, there's a magnetic pad that holds the screwdriver bit container in place. I'm not sure whether this has any other intended use, but personally I use it for mapping out the screws when I'm working on a device to help me remember where the screws go when I reassemble it if I am not using a step-by-step guide. I am very pleased with my purchase and I find it a lot easier to work on my electronics than I ever could before. This toolkit paired up with the repair guides on the iFixit website are a match made in heaven for right-to-repair enthusiasts such as myself

In de loop van de afgelopen decennia is het openen van een laptop of mobiele telefoon soms iets dat veel weg heeft van een "black-art". Mede veroorzaakt door het gebrek aan standaardisering van de soorten schroefjes en boutjes die iedere fabrikant gebruikt en vaak ook om de zoveel jaar vervangt door een andere maatvoering. Wanneer je met enige regelmaat gevraagd wordt om een wat oudere laptop te voorzien van meer geheugen, een nieuwe batterij of om een (hopelijk) kleine storing te verhelpen dan is zo'n setje speciaal gereedschap onontbeerlijk.

I was playing some of that new Animal Crossing early last month, you know? Around the time when that psychotic rabbit was hiding eggs in every surface of every object and you were left smashing your shovel for worthless resources? Right after that event. After a three hour play session I placed my Nintendo Switch into its official dock to charge. After an hour of not playing I decided I should play again- Don't judge me. I mean what else would I be doing? Its an actual pandemic and I have nothing better to do. If I am honest though, I have nothing to do on normal days as I am a complete shut in with no friends. But regardless I'm sure this whole locking yourself in your house all day thing is doing terrible things to my mental state, I just haven't noticed it yet. Oh right, anyways; Wouldn't you know it, the damned thing killed it self- on the official Nintendo Switch dock no less. The Switch's screen was backlit but the whole console was unresponsive. A forced restart later had baby raging when it didn't start up. I mean I actually pouted, alone, in my house. Good thing no one will ever know how stupid I looked. Of course, its quarantine season so nothing is open. Of course! I cannot even buy a new one due to the Switch suddenly becoming a block of actual gold on store shelves. Nintendo had also taken the opportunity to not take any more repairs (Lets be honest they probably want a break from the joysticks, right?) and none of my local shops in my city are open to do a third party fix. Well, guess who has the time to learn? Me. That's right baby! I have taken on the responsibility to fix my own devices! After scanning through my city's stores looking for a Y000 bit to open the back of this gods forsaken device I stumbled upon this heck of a anti-security screw kit here. Easiest purchase of my life. Placed my order April 20, 2020. And waited. ... So after getting a notice saying it was going to take a whole month (May 23rd) I went pure caveman. I savagely found a larger sharp pointed Y00 and made it fit. So needless to say I am now looking into how to get a completely stripped and cratered Y000 out of Nintendo Switch. Turns out I have no idea what I am looking for. Sure, the back is off now, but it looks like a wild dog travelled a mile with the Switch in its mouth and I have no idea what is actually wrong. It is chip related and I have no idea what I am doing. So yesterday? I think it was yesterday- god, all my days are mashing together into one long day with dark moments. Anyways, I got a package! The "ifixit Pro Tech Tookit" showed up a week earlier then expected! It looks and feels great in hand and has a boat-load of tools in it! Everything you would ever need to do some repairs on your small electronics. It even has that Y000 I was after last month too. Cool... cool... So if anyone knows a good way to get the absolutely flattened remnants of a Y000 out of a hole, please hit me up. I want to clean this thing up a bit before I deliver it to the local repair shop.

Tenía mis dudas solo por el tema de precio Una vez lo abres y lo coges en la mano te das cuenta por lo que as pagado Calidad de 10 nada de chino que se desgasta al 3 tornillo Pura robustez 100% recomendable

Väldigt flitigt använd till alla möjliga problem jag lyckats snubbla över. Bara att ha tillgång till brytredskap i plast när jag skulle ta isär en wii kontroller för att rengöra från ett läckt batteri var kanon bra.
