what insulated screwdrivers do you use?

[Paultrim123321]

My Irazolas are a bit tired and just browsing for a new set. Just wondered what your weapons of choice are?

I also have a set of these which are very useful when just going to look at a job as it fits in my poocket

I've had the irazola set as well and they lasted longer then my current CK. Irazola shafts are a bit to long some times when in cramped placed. Next set I think I will go for is the Wera with the toughen tips.

Ive got the Wera ones with the laser tip. The terminal one has little grooves in it to help bite and you can buy them individually at electrifix

The black Bacho drivers are very poor. I snapped a few. CEF near me stopped selling them due to loads of returns.

We'll that's where I got them.....

If your anything like me get a £12 set if CK's cos I leave them everywhere. Dread to think how many tools I have lost in the last 10 years!!!

I got a Free set of Bacho's when I got an account with an wholesalers. Lasted a day before I broke 2 of them under normal usage btw. Gave them to an electricians mate and he said they were rubbish. DONT BUY THEM.

Crikey, these don't even sound as good as the £5 set I got from Aldi. What's happened to Bahco ? I had them down as one of the true quality tool producers.

I bought a Bahco VDE driver from the local indy tool store....massively too long, didn't fit screwheads properly (PZ2 driver, PZ2 screws) instead wanted to round off anything in site....utterly kack...
I think its still in the bottom of the toolbox...probably wouldn't even be useful as a pry tool....

Wiha slim vario and CK regular range. i don't buy the sets of CK or anyone, just the ones I use and replace when necessary.

I won't touch Irazola as i don't rate the flared tips on the flat heads, and have snapped the pozis in the past. The lifetime guarantee is worthless as it's covered by the caveat of 'normal use'. They'll just claim you used it to lever a paint can open!

Apart from my Slim Vario set, which i rate highly for second fix, I buy mid range, use and abuse, then buy each one again as necessary. What are they..£5-7 each? and for the amount of work they do....
