  1. Great review Eric! Those are some cool bits! I saw some gold from DeWalt the other day, I love the bit driver, and the case is great! I may have to pick this up! Keep up the great work!

  2. I came back to follow-up on my comment about the angled socket adapter because I have since bought the socket set with the angled adapter. I never really liked the idea of the rubbery strip for holding sockets, preferring to stick with a molded case, but then realized that this type of holder fits great in my Veto bag. One thing I don’t like is that I have to remove sockets from the holder to read the size etched on them, but a label maker can take care of that. But on to the real reason I came back – the angled adapter works “okay”, but the fit is necessarily sloppy when inserted for angled use, and for straight use the socket retention doesn’t really cut it for me. The sockets themselves seem fine, and I can’t complain about the price, but the socket adapter was a disappointment.

  3. I broke the socket adapter pretty easy on that set.. The sockets seem fine. I liked the adapter but it broke way to easy..

  4. I think I will give them a try. I have been needing a good magnetic bit holder. I was looking at this the other day but I guess I should have just bought it then. Thanks for the review.

  5. Would you guys be able to check out DeWalt DW2507, it is similar but has no case and only 5 bits but has the magnetic screw holder. I got it at my local Lowes dfor around $10 and wondered if you could compare it to the Makita one on effectiveness and quality.

  6. Hi Dan, I saw one of your reviews on dewalt impact bits but the set I am talking about had a magnetic ring on the end to hold the screw on, I did look it up on amazon though and dewalt has two things listed under DW2507 but the one I got was not on amazon and saw it for the first time about a month ago at lowes.

  7. Turns out I bought this bit without seeing this review….I was very impressed when I opened the package, and am happy to see that it’s not a gimmick!
