- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 ก.ย. 2022
- Brands: LTT, PB Swiss, Snap On, Wera, GearWrench, Williams, Irwin, Megapro, Milwaukee, Klein Tools, Husky, Lenox, SATA and Black+Decker. Ratcheting screwdrivers compared for efficiency, precision, and durability. Tests include working arc swing, ratchet back drag, magnet strength, bit retention strength, build quality (shaft wobble), shaft rotation in the locked position, bit failure load and screwdriver failure load. I bought all of the screwdrivers tested and the products used for testing. So, thank you for supporting the channel.

My heart was pounding the entire time I was watching, but I'm so glad we submitted to be included in this round-up. Seeing the results from an independent source hits so different and I'm incredibly proud of our team.
Also, massive props to Todd for changing the game when it comes to objective tool reviews.
I'm sure this won't be our last crossover episode ;) - LS
It is official.
Great job from the LTT screwdriver team!! 🎉🎉
LTT is clearly a winner here ! given the price tag of the PB swiss
Your screwdriver is legit, it's half the price of the most premium product on display but performs extremely similarly, I'm thoroughly impressed that you guys were able to take the Megapro and actually improve on it this much
And congrats of having the best all rounder product.
Project Farm taught me a thing: The cheapest things aren't worth the trouble, and the most expensive aren't worth the money. The mid-tier you find good tools that don't rip your wallet.
Irwin almost always performs well for the price.
Well said. 100% agree.
Imo the prices are often odd on his videos, the PB Swiss screwdriver costs 50€ over here.
@@jpikl1284 well he lives here in the states and guess what costs of goods are different. not just from conversion rate also due to shipping and handling and then the government has to tax everything. so price will change
@@ralphnapierii1184 my Irwin is broke currently. I think my wife broke it havnt asked her how but loved it minus the weight of it.
Never have I thought I would be into late night watching screwdriver reviews.
That was very entertaining and useful.
Thanks!
Me either, taking into account that I don’t even need one and have been watching this video just after LTT’s 30 minutes screwdriver story😂
@@paincast2347 same, but four months late
Literally me on 3AM lol
haha same for me
wow, I didn't expect the LTT screwdriver to be that impressive
and I also didn't expect such intricate testing procedures, great job on both parts
Thanks.
@@htr5372 ?
@@htr5372 make your own comparative tests?
@@htr5372 You already make a bunch of screwdriver videos might as well make a comparison video like this one. You're the pro right?
@@htr5372 I dont know tools😂 I never said I did. I said YOU were the pro. Why you acting so sensitive??
(in response to HTR5372- "Tell me you dont know tools without telling me" They edited their comment to just lol)
Sometimes I think, "man, this guy must have the most epic tool collection." Then I remember that almost everything is busted.
lol Thanks for watching!
Would make giveaways of the stuff he tested a hilarious deal.
@@ernie325 "Slightly used"
@@anonanon3066 "Quality tested" ;)
I'm guessing he breaks everything then goes out and buys the best one so still prolly a quality collection.
i cant express the immeasurable value this channel alone CONTRIBUTES TO THE EFFICIENCY OF MY TIME, THE PRESERVATION OF MY MONEY, AND THE CONFIDENCE THAT I"VE GOT THE RIGHT TOOL FOR THE JOB.
Thanks so much!
I recently bought a house and man am I glad for this channel!
This has saved me so much time and money. In the past you would just buy some harborfreight and be ok and moderately happy. Then their tool quality took a dive a long time ago. But you could survive. The day a cheap set of screwdrivers failed on the first use. Demanded a project farm amazing reviewer to sort through the bologna. Because you can't just buy the average tool at lowes/homedepot. That leads to failure more often too.
I love my cle-line drill bits, irwin dikes and channel lock needlenose. And knowing the right bits to buy now. Milwaukee ones are trash and he proved it, but I knew it when I bought some before PF review. They break and wear out fast.
So very true .. and he has a Farmabego. 😁
I like that I don’t even have to put his videos to 1.5x speed. It’s the default setting for his voice.
love that I dont have to turn on 2x playback speed unlike most tool review videos ...thats some dense efficient content!!
Thanks!
so true
it was just nonstop information, no wasted seconds.
@@nodrance there is no point making adverts too long
This is why we have ADHD lol
As a mechanic, there aren't many things (other than engineer's decisions) more annoying and frustrating than ratcheted tools having so much rotational slop that you can't unscrew anything in a tight area.
And the PB Swiss's magnet is almost strong enough to lift a small single choke carburetor, that's impressive
Thanks for the feedback.
That is not impressive, it means you need PLIARS to remove a bit which makes sure NO ONE ever picks this screwdriver to be used and instead grabs a normal screwdriver with a better handle or an actual changeable bit screwdriver.
@@w8stral Exactly! It also means that in use the screwdriver is going to stick to other metal components making the screwdriver pretty much unusable. Funny how I've seen comments from people who bought the LTT saying they have already broken them. Meanwhile, comments from many Snap On owners (like myself) that have been using theirs for 20-30 years with zero problems. The fact that Linus says he initially wanted to use aluminum for the shaft should have told everyone that this guy has zero knowledge about how to make a tool. Meanwhile, Snap On has been making tools for over 100 years but I'm sure this guy has it all figured out.
@@shark61111 Funny, I don't see a single comment about someone breaking their LTT screwdriver. Where are all these people with broken LTT screwdrivers? Even searching google leads to a SINGLE result.
@@shark61111 "this guy has zero knowledge about how to make a tool"
You're right. Which is exactly why he hired a team of engineers and designers to actually design the products
No way, can’t believe you testing LTT screwdriver this fast, love your content!!
Thank you and hope you enjoy the video!
yeah
Fantastic content! Was anticipating this video particularly :D
Me too!!! I saw the title and re-read. This is the test I wanted but never thought would happen
They got in touch and had LTT overnight two for him to test.
Props to Project Farm for making a 20 minute screwdriver comparison video that is entertaining to watch 😂
Thanks!
indeed.
@@ProjectFarm my favorite part was when you broke 1000$ worth of screwdrivers lmao ty for reviewing ltt screwdriver!
especially with how on the point the individual tests are and how fast he is talking i think every other channel would have had this video be at least 30min :D
ridiculously good editing in this video to make screwdriver comparisons worth watching the full way through! the fast pace of talking works great in something like this with the quick cut edits and always something worthy to look at on screen
Honestly, whenever I go to buy smaller tools or other shop equipment, I tend to check this channel first for a review on the best brand to get. The objective and thorough testing are second to none on this platform
Thanks for the feedback.
I’ve used the Wera daily in an aerospace environment for a few years without issue. After a few days of use the back-drag on mine was very acceptable, though most hardware in aerospace uses a locking feature so it’s not a huge deal. It feels very solid and high quality. If I broke it tomorrow I’d buy another, although I don’t see that happening. Love the channel!
Thanks! Thanks for sharing.
I'm glad to hear this. I have not used Wera's racheting driver, but the rest of their tools that I've used have been very high quality. For the price, I think this would be my choice as well
Aircraft mechanic here too. I love my Wera. The speed that you can change bits is one thing I really like about it.
For screwdrivers, we're using Wera almost exclusively on the rolling stock maintenance company I work for. They seem to be using very strong steel, because I never see them break. The same thing could be said about Knipex and their pliers.
PB Swiss feels like the screwdriver you use in industrial applications. Where losing a single bit during maintenance can be disastrous, so you need that magnetic pull!
i guess if you're crazy and work on computers while they're laying motherboard facing up while it's running, this could be a good feature haha
If you live in europe and have your own set of bits the ratchetbitholder is 55 euro only.
I have the PB and definitely does not cost $144, it's an awesome ratchet
there is a facom one that not only has a magnet yo hold the bits, but also a mechanical locking system. ACL.1A is the reference
yeah for example on aircraft engines. It happened, mechanic forgot screwdriver bit on engine cowling and engine ingest bit during high speed take off run. It failed and was badly damaged.
"The Snap-On comes with two bits"
Damn near fell out of my seat laughing. That company needs to get itself together.
Yeah kind of sad, they're just riding out the dead husk of their former glory. Maybe theyll stock up these cheesy profits for a new era of development? Doubtful.
As the older/elderly generation that continues to buy their shit with pension checks because of the brand name dies out, they will feel the impact on their profits more and more. These tests are kind of extreme, but for general use you can easily get away with even a cheapo 5 dollar exchangeable bit screwdriver from harbor freight. Want it to be magnetized? Slap a 3 dollar bar magnet on it. But I do understand the appeal of having a 'nice' tool, LTT def wins.
@@akustaka People buy snap-on for the lifetime no questions asked warranty but they are not the best for sure.
@@akustaka You can magnetise any bit/screw driver by looping over a strong neodymium magnet e.g. HDD magnet pull.
They really took pride in their strength-to-weight ratio, so they threw the extra weight overboard.
I don’t usually comment on videos but I’ve been watching your reviews for a few years (along with Linus) and my dad works for a fiber internet company working on servers and such and I saw this review and had to buy him the LTT screwdriver! I’m rewatching the video again with my dad as he was skeptical about giving up his Milwaukee and he’s excited now! Keep up the good work sir!
I liked this review a lot, especially in the set of use-oriented tests and including the bits. Even the best driver can be a fail if the bits are crap. There are a couple of problems I saw. One is that in some of the shaft deflection tests, it looks like the handle deflects in the vise because the vice doesn't grip it well. The other is the geometry of the test with the dial gauge. One of the shafts points slightly down from horizontal, which I think affects the accuracy of the measurement. Overall, best review I've seen so far. I would like to have seen the precision of the bits, especially phillips, in engaging the head of the screws. This is affected by the precision of the screw head, but still would be insteresting to see how it affects camming out and wear of the tip. My guess is that the bits that fractured will work better, but they might tend to strip out the heads more. Overall, great review. I also liked the review of bed liners. I used that one to decide which liner to buy.
Thanks! Thanks for the suggestion.
How about the part where he removed one of his own tests for the sole purpose of moving the ltt screwdriver to the top of the list, odd that you didn't mention that as a problem.
@@-opus Didn't notice that. I'll have to go back and watch it again.
@@-opus He gave an example of how you could modify the test to suit your needs, and yes, the one he chose did put LTT at the top, but it was also one that was in the top 2 or 3 of likely tests that most people would choose to remove as well. If you're going to try to act like something is a problem, at least bring something more substantial than "he told us we could do a thing and then gave an example that made a result that seemed mildly suspicious". And I don't even like LTT.
@@Omniverse0 Don't try to claim some form of objectivity at the end of your obviously agenda based statement. He did not "give an example", he deliberately removed a criteria for the sole purpose of modifying the results to move the ltt screwdriver to the top, that is not something that can be legitimately denied.
The crossover we didn't think we needed, but glad it happened
Thank you!
Ah yes!
No i hounded the hell out of linus for this to happen, i needed this
lol no, we all very much knew we needed this
This was actually the first thing I thought
Every time Todd tests a tool I want to buy: "Thanks for your service 🥳"
Every time Todd criticizes a crappy tool I already own: "How dare you 😱"
I bought a box cutter blade on recommendation from this channel and i now have a sizeable scar on my leg
12/10 would recommend.
Me every time he reviews a Makita power tool.
I view tools like photographers view cameras. "The best one is the one you have with you."
Until it breaks. Then buy a better one.
@@geotherapy I've always been a if the tools you have gets the job you have done then they're the best tools.
When he tests a type of tool that I don't own, or sometimes for tools that I do own, I'll make note of the tool brands with the best outcome and put those tools on my wish list for future purchases.
It’s amazing how through you are on all of these tests!! I really don’t care about all of that, but you make it so entertaining and enjoyable to watch! I am pretty sure I have watch ALL of you videos and several of them I have watched many times! Thank you sir!!
Thanks and you are welcome!
as much as I trust LTT's quality and their transparency during the design and making of the tools, I still trust your reviews more, because its clearly shown in numbers and compared to other competitors.. as always, great job PF!!
LTT promised and they didn't disappoint
Linus genuinely seemed to try to make the best screwdriver he could. Really it's not the most expensive on the market either. That PB Swiss is eye watering in the price category.
@@1pcfred he makes the tools/equipment he wants himself. So in this case a very nice racheting screwdriver. Also his cable ties and backpack. Not to mention the upcoming magnetic cable management tools which look awesome.
I appreciate that! Thank you very much!
@@sneezing_panda The backpack is unfortunately very expensive, in my opinion too expensive. (around $200)
One recurring thing I’ve noticed in these hand tool reviews, the Wera tools are built like tanks. Seems every test they’re one of the most durable. In this day and age, I’ve got to give the company credit for delivering a solid product that will last.
I can't fault any of my Wera screwdrivers. I've used the longer ones as ill-advised pry bars and they didn't complain one bit.
@@SpartanMJO12 These days, flathead screws are so rare most of my flathead screwdrivers are used for prying and wiggling stuff apart. If only they made a proper tool for that :)
I love my wera stuff
@@Null-- lets develop a prybar-bit 😂
Wera also seems to be the default driver supplied with insert cutting tools(at least for milling applications) for installing and removing carbide cutting inserts, from the likes of Sandvik, etc.
Wow this is a really great and dense video, didn't need to speed it up like i usually do with other review channels. Really informative too! Keep it up
Thanks, will do!
I love these tool reviews not just for the awesome tests and objective comparisons, but for introducing me to brands I didn't know existed! Like it's great to see the LTT driver did better than expected, but for my needs a Megapro might be more than enough.
Thank you!
The Megapro seems like the winner in my book, which includes a cost-to-performance ratio. I am just a home user after all. :)
First time watching the channel, just wanna say I’m super impressed at how efficiently and cleanly all of the information is presented. You waste very little time with fluff and nonsense, and just get right into the information that matters. Very well done
Thanks!
Most tool companies are trying to sell you an entire line of tools. LTT went super hard into 1 tool and it really shows. So cool to see brand vs obsession.
I call it brand religion :)
I said the exact same in their video. When there's no upsell, you put everything into one product. Glad it came out great
Makes sense considering what they do too. I used to be a computer tech and a good screwdriver is at the top of the list of things you need. There aren't that many tools you need to fix office computers all day but a good screwdriver is definitely one of them.
You mean like Be_Fawlt_e... they were one of the best at one time, for a little while . then they went off the deep end with a million tools. I won't buy any more after the last purchase, the impact driver broke in a month, yet my 15 yr old blue ryobi that I use every day and has been dropped many many times off ladders and what not is still working great. I'm not saying ryobi is great either, they went to all green junk. Also I use both of those impact drivers daily. I think most everything is becoming crap anyway and starting to look in pawn shops and flee markets for old tools, they were made better.
Thanks for watching!
It's always fun to see the testing rigs that are simple but make for consistent results
Thanks!
Love these videos. Menards is starting to come into the tool game. Would love to see some Masterforce tool tests from screwdrivers, drills, vacuums, vises, and many others.
Thanks for the suggestion.
As I've said many times before what makes these tests really great is how thorough & well thought out the testing regime is. I wish you continued success and look forward to watching many, many more tests!
Thanks so much!
@@ProjectFarm Thank YOU for consistently doing these tests so thoroughly!!! I, and I hope others too, bought many a tool or other product based not only on your reviews and testing, but also by considering the factors that you test for! Then, when you test one of those that I picked based on your testing factors, which happens pretty often, it turns out to be a top performer.
You're doing a valuable service, friend, we all appreciate it very much! 😀👍
Another thing to note is how efficiently PF provides the information. He gets right to the point - no long intros or filler.
I love how simple a solution he comes up with for the tests. For 'just a screwdriver' he tested way more features than I was expecting. Also destroying them is a bonus too. I've bought a few tools based on his reviews, and its almost never the best one, but always the best for the need or price.
@@manicdan481 Best, unfortunately is a relative term and is often simply just a matter of what your need is more then if it works for everyone. I totally agree with that PF goes the extra mile in his test even to the point of breaking the product - especially because he doesn't except sponsors and pays for everything he test 100% out of pocket.
Awesome, a new video. We run a Concrete plant. I think it would be awesome to see which spray nozzles for garden hoses worked the best to wash down mixer trucks. Most durable and strongest stream. Thank you for your videos.
Thank you for the video idea!
Please test garden hoses as well. Thank you.
I honestly like the old school metal one where you adjust the stream by how far you squeeze the handle.
@@bobo888bobo Yes a garden hose test would be amazing. I have the worst luck with hose pipes. They always seem to bubble up or get a pin hole. I would like to know what is the best to buy while still considering price.
@@bobo888bobo That was done last year.
This review is great. I always come here to see where my “go to” is going to land in the rankings. Also, the comment “and the snap-on snapped off” made me chuckle.
Great content as always.
God Bless
Thanks!
Your channel is very helpful for my purchase decision. Thank you for all your efforts and hard work.
Thanks and you are welcome! Glad to hear!
This convinced me to go with Wera, seems like a perfect balance of price and quality (magnet strength and bit retention is the most important for me). LTT is the best but it's $100 with tax and shipping to Scandinavia, while the Wera is $38 in total.
Thanks for sharing.
Wera always is a good option to go to. So it is with ratcheting screwdrivers! I really like some of the categories the LTT one wins, though. If it holds up for a lifetime? Oof. I have the same struggle, living in Germany. They really need an EU warehouse. I think I will wait some longer until I decide which one to buy...
@@DerKatzeSonne it would most certainly be a 3rd party warehouse/dropkick center and then they cant be on top of customer service and it might make the price go up and all that crap...thats why they probably cant ever do it.
@@nekoroms exactly: 3rd party warehouse. But I doubt what you say about customer service.
Totally agree, though I was surprised ti see this particular PB s8nce it's much more expensive than the one that has the bits in its body, which is around 75 EUR tax included, so around 75 USD as of recently
I have been heavily considering the LTT screwdriver ever since it was announced. I wasn't sure I could justify its price tag though. Now, I'm convinced. Huge props to the LTT team.
Thanks for the feedback.
Convinced..... lol most of these tests are irrelevant all you are buying is an over priced screw driver anything past 40 is pointless.... unless you are gullible oh and none of the other wrenches joined the show harbor freight and warrior or Chicago. Anyone who would pay $70 for a screw driver is a bad consumer lol top kek.
@@acmecondorsrealm8357 it'll last, My dad bought a good quality screwdriver about 10-13 years ago,
no fancy ratchet mechanism or bits tho, However I abused the hell out of it and it still is great, not rusty and quite straight, expect it kinda lost its magnetization on the tip
@@acmecondorsrealm8357
How would it be to let people decide on their own what they want to spend money on, furthermore you are not the person who is able to decide what useless or useful top kek goes to you my boy
@@acmecondorsrealm8357 irrelevant?? These tests cover practically every scenario possibly encountered while using these screwdrivers. The LTT only did poorly in one area, excluding limited bit retention because excessive bit retention is actually a negative.
It only lacks stability in lock setting. Too much slack. But it’s a ratcheting screwdriver, so it passes with flying colors.
I’m glad you tested the bits. I usually just use a 1/4 inch drive ratchet with a socket to hold the bits, instead of a dedicated screwdriver.
this is why i LOVE this channel… no clickbait, no bs, just straight to the tool comparison. well done 🤝 also pleased to see my favorite tech channel made a really good product.
Thanks!
Absolute legend, I remember hitting the sub button when you had around 100k and now look where you’re at. You have built an empire on honesty, transparency, integrity and consistency while never selling out or shilling.
Thanks for keeping true to the ethos you built this channel on so you can deliver easy to understand results to help consumers become more informed on how they spend their money.
Thanks!
@@ProjectFarm have you done a test for the best all around 4 1/2 metal cutting disc

im actually incredibly impressed with how well the guys at LTT made their screwdriver.
Thanks for the feedback.
I thought it would end up being maybe slightly better than average. Can't argue with results though bew my expectations out of the water. And I really like that knurling. Feels weird to buy what is essentially youtuber merch for my actual shop but maybe...
@@ProjectFarm Ratchet Back Drag is the key feature!
@@Stephan-wf1ec Linus' merch isn't really merch anymore tbh. I mean they literally have employees which rigorously test the products. However, obviously, ain't the best value as you're buying it to support someone.
@@kadrix732 All merchandise supports someone.
I love that you test so many different products so quickly, you talk fast but I can easily follow along. Super nice review of all these screwdrivers
Thanks!
I just wanna point out that this channel is possibly the most realistic and fair testing channel on TH-cam. Obviously we aren't sitting here watching millions of dollars of equipment or anything, but the attention to detail, the transparency with the tooling and with the products being tested. I have enjoyed this channel for years and I will
continue enjoying. Thanks for the great content!
Thanks and you are welcome!
There did seem to be some bias from host though. He mentioned several great things about LTT or gave reason why it might not score so well in a category and even adjusted end scores to show LTT could be at the top. This is fine but he didn't do it to any of the other brands. Therefore the video has bias.
@@VGAppSolutions transparency tho.
@@htr5372 if you say so. I've enjoyed this channel and the content. Man's is allowed to have a preference. However the testing was performed as consistently as possible when possible. I think that in itself supports my original comment more than enough.

It's so crazy to see an LTT product being properly reviewed on my favorite channel. Really great testing methods. I'd be curious to see your Subscriber stats after this cross-over.
Properly reviewed? He removed an important test at the end to push the LTT screwdriver to the top of the listing 🙄
@@-opus no one, including you, is ever going to put that much force on a screwdriver, especially a ratcheting one. It was a strong arm test that is irrelevent to what the screwdriver is made for.
It's surprised me. I figured I was a somewhat rare subscriber of both channels.
@@zachf9187 true, who would expect the type of people who follow Linus, to follow Project Farm. Although after watching this video and the dodgy end of it, perhaps they are more similar than would have previously appeared obvious.
@@neely8607 Are you suggesting that Project Farm tests irrelevant attributes of products?
This is the best tool comparison I have ever seen.
I'll take a look a your other videos every time I need a new tool.
You will be my reference for now onwards 👍
Thanks!
Glad to see the LTT screwdriver did so well. Little bummed that you didn't include the Husky quick load screwdriver which is my favorite. Haven't tried the LTT though.
Two takeaways from this: LTT's driver is actually really good and stands up to task, especially for tech work and I'm surprised at how much it matched Linus's hype. The second takeaway is that Megapro is an amazing value for money. Like an insane amount of performance for relatively little money.
@The Night they're right though, the Megapro automotive is has a magnet.
The Megapro is my favorite ratcheting screwdriver by miles...however he should've used the automotive one. Different shaft length and the bit storage is setup for the regular short bits.
LTTs screwdriver is the best marketing for Megapros screwdriver.
Thanks for sharing.
I used a Megapro for CCTV work. Great screwdriver but is chonk. My backup was actually the Husky that was reviewed. We'll see when my LTT arrives.
This just shows me that Linus was being honest when he was reviewing and talking about his screwdriver. Even more respect from what is unofficially the best tech channel on TH-cam. Nice review!
Thanks!
Imo the one thing that bumps them up from a tie with gamer's Nexus to the best are their techlinked and techquickie channels. Gamer's Nexus have better videos on the main channel on average imo since they don't bother as much with less interesting things but TechLinked is my favorite and techquickie is a really nice bonus to round up my tech knowledge and send to friends when they need to know something.
Sameeee dude
Popularity is not the same as quality. Most people are idiots. Which channel (over 200k subscribers) has the highest percentage of IT professionals according to youtube? Gamers Nexus? Hardware Unboxed? Nope, The answer is: The Linux Experiment.
@@communitycollegegenius9684 I died laughing at this comment
Leaning towards the Megapro after watching this. I’ve also heard great things about it from previous buyers
Thanks for the feedback.
I’ve had Megapro screwdrivers for over 20 years. I rarely use other screwdrivers. I broke a bit and Megapro sent me a replacement.
I've had a Wera for a long time, and am pretty fond of it. It was toward the top end of middling on these tests, but the grip is SUPER comfortable, which is worth a lot in and of itself.
I picked up the Wera because they were on sale for only 50 AUD which is 30 USD.
What an amazingly well thought out test for these ratcheting screwdrivers. You never disappoint. Thank you!
Thanks and you are welcome!
This has to be one of, if not the most, useful channels on youtube. It's hard for me to express just how amazing this channel is.
Thanks!
he doesnt have 2.6MM followers for nothing lol
@@danwake4431 the evolution of the channel is pretty awesome, I first saw his videos a few years ago when he was testing different kinds of motor oil. The variety is immense
I buy tools I don't even really need just on the recommendation of PF!
No, I didn't buy the LTT, because I don't do electronics. But I have just bought a Milwaukee angle grinder and in the past two Mossy Oak multi-tools, and other things, based on PF reviews. I just found this screwdriver review interesting and was supplementing @imsnark's post.
I didn't know I needed tool review esports in my life until I watched this video 😂Thank you for such an informative and thorough review!
You are welcome!
You are damn good at this. I haven't seen anybody do such comprehensive tests and actual real-world user issues. I hate a ratchet driver that are sloppy , stiff and weak under torque. 👏
This is seriously one of my favorite channels. Fantastic work!
Thanks so much!
Congratulations to LTT, this shows that your design philosophy was right when you designed this screwdriver. I'm leaning more and more toward a purchase.
Thanks for the feedback.
Really the magnet test was the most convincing.
do it. I did before watching this. I think of it this way, a good screwdriver will last an ENTIRE lifetime, and you will enjoy using it.
Furthermore you are supporting REAL people. 80 hard working staff at LTT, all deserving
The problem never was about their product being low quality. But overly expensive (case in point: twice as expensive than the competition)
LTT is a globalist in America but a fascist in išяeal. Not a fan.
My buddy loves LTT, so when they came out with this he was all in saying "It's the best screwdriver on the market!"
All I heard was your voice "Let's test that." 😉
Thank you so much for putting that driver through the paces. Now he has data to back up his fanaticism... I'll never hear the end of it.
:D
Thank you very much!
now you can fire back with the PB Swiss being clearly superior
@@0x73V14 at 2X the price it better be!!!
@@0x73V14 It's not clearly superior. The LTT screwdriver outperforms it in many ways, and the PB Swiss doesn't have a bit holder.
Project Farm creates some of my favorite videos on YT. I love the enthusiasm and the attention to detail
Thanks so much!
I work on my project cars, build stuff around the house and build computers for myself and my kids. I've been wondering about the new LTT screwdriver and so happy to see it here on one of my favorite channels. Great tests and certainly solidified my decision that the LTT screwdriver is going to be worth it for me.
Thanks for sharing.
I'm wondering how much stuff we use daily and consider to be "ok" can be improved by a few people outside the field and a bit of money to be "actually pretty good". Which leads me to: Hey LTT ... would you mind improving the printer market? Screw proprietary colors. Just input the make and the printer will adjust how it gets used. Opensource drivers. All the jazz we're missing.
Easy way to get assassinated by big printer
LTT “ok see you in 20 years”, their driver took 3 years to develop
@@BobfromHolland Thats because linus is so particular, as well as the manafacturer in Taiwan screwing them over.
That wouldn't be legal. Printers have regulations that require the manufacturers to include tracking software to trace every single printed page back to a printer. Those are the yellow or grey stains on every page, even if the printer is new and clean. Making the entire software of all microchips (not just the network interface and main control chip) open source would violate national security interests.
@@wilhelmhohenzollern576 people ask why I use a 20 year old color laser printer. This is why.
Ive followed Linus and Project farm for years and years. However never would I expect to see a video where Todd was testing LTT creations ! LTT were not a tool designer / manufacturer yet here they've beat even well established tool companies. Linus, his family, business and employees are legendary and I genuinely wish them all the best.
While LTT is not a tool manufacturer, look at the cost difference between them and the common household brands. Their price would have to be cut in half at minimum to attract the general audience outside of TH-cam, knowledgeable hobbyists on TH-cam, or LTT's fans.
I am not discrediting them one bit, but if those big name tool brands had twice as much MSRP to play with, they too would be on a very similar or better level in terms of performance. I'm glad LTT made a product that stands out from the rest, and hopefully they roll in the dough, but $70 for a screwdriver is steep for most people.
@@PaftDunk Great points. Part of the cost for LTT has to come from smaller scales of economy that have to get factored into the cost, I'm sure you know this, but for others reading our comments just pointing that out
LTT worked with one of the other manufacturers also in this roundup
@@PaftDunk In terms of quality product, i cant deny their product is a good product, but with $70 for a screwdriver it is steep for most of people.
@@Tedster59 he is also banking on the fact his sheeple will buy one because it has his brand. no smart person would buy an overpriced screwdriver
No matter what the outcome of the test results are, the video always starts with me saying, "I would never buy one of those, but I am curious..." and by the end of the video, I feel compelled to do something with all of this vast consumer knowledge!

The amount and precision of testing is amazing, I'll bet most manufacturers don't even do this much testing. I am always impressed by your testing imagination and engineering skills to build the various test rigs. Thank you!
I would definitely agree that most probably do not, however I will say that LTT from what I understand, has done loads of testing, just in the design phase, to make sure they're putting something out there that's the best quality they can make while pricing it to be affordable. Now, I'm not saying that the LTT Screwdriver is "affordable" in the short term, but, in the long term, compared to other brands, the price is relatively close to what you would pay for 2 or 3 (including replacement) screwdrivers from other brands, which, if the LTT one ends up being something that will last more than 10 or 15 years, without problems, makes it worth it compared to what you will find in most hardware stores, as the ratcheting mechanisms usually don't feel good, or they lock up with a lot of use...
Another thing is, despite the warranty debate about LTT, on whether a paper warranty is as good as a verbal "if something is wrong hit up support and we'll fix it"(they did end up with actually adding a written warranty, although they're famous for their implied warranties) they always strive to have great customer support, even if it gets swamped considering how little staff they have in customer support, and you have to wait a while to get responses sometimes... Anything major that LTT does, they want it to be "the best it can be" or "the best ever" because being 2nd best isn't good enough for Linus Sebastian and his team, and if they can't innovate in an area, then they just don't bother trying... That's why the backpack and screwdriver cost so much, is all the research and development that HAD to be done to reach his level of quality...
Especially, the LTT one.
Thanks and you are welcome!
@@northwiebesick7136 But the cost effectiveness is kinda bad for the LTT screwdriver. It's a modified version of a megapro screwdriver with higher quality materials and great improvement in the less important areas, but for twice the price. So for people who use their screwdriver once or twice a month, it would be better to get a megapro screwdriver.
@@kuratse205 not saying it is or isn't, I'm just saying that I have used a few ratcheting screwdrivers that I have used once or twice a month and I have ended up having to replace them after 4 or 5 months and usually I don't even bother I just the next time I need one I buy one, but still, me having to buy one after like 4 or 5 uses of a 15 $20 one versus using one every day and having it last 10-15 years you have to admit that you know depending on what you're doing with it the cost-effectiveness is still there in the long run... Megapro is a good driver, and they're just down the street from the LTT headquarters, and the guys at megapro where the guys that Linus used for years for a driver, but all the same the reason it's so much more expensive is because of not just the building of it but the shipping of it to his Warehouse(s) and to all the other places it has to be shipped before then... It's not just air shipping that's gone up in price it's all kinds of shipping that has gone up in price, and being a smaller manufacturer and or seller he can't soak up the cost as much as someone who's making millions upon millions of them at a time
Very informative and in-depth video, as always! I don't own any of these screwdrivers, but I have a King Tony, which is made in Taiwan and I am very happy with its quality.
I watch nearly all of your videos. There are many testing channels, but yours is the cream of the crop.
I would like to see a test of rechargeable (internal batteries, charged by a cell phone type charger) mini screwdrivers.
Also the dedicated regular screwdriver-sized electric cordless screwdrivers with interchangeable bits.
Thanks! Thanks for the suggestion.
came for ltt, but love how thorough you test and review the tools, will definitely check out other videos of yours
You're in for a treat!
Awesome, thank you!
we’re going to test that 😏
I’m glad that it seems like LTT has delivered a really good screwdriver but the Megapro seems like the best bang for the buck.
The Megapro is an excellent value. The handle appears chunky and not very ergonomic. After using an older variant of the SnapOn for years where the ratcheting direction selector is reversed, I haven't been able to get used to any other ratcheting screwdriver. For how often I use a ratcheting screwdriver the LTT is worth every penny. If I only used one occasionally I'd definitely consider the Megapro instead.
For sure. You can see why Megapro was so willing to work closely with LTT. The LTT driver ends up being a Lexus to the Megapro Toyota.
@@DanKaschel Terrible analogy. You're saying it's expensive junk compared to junk.
I was thinking the Megapro looked great, until it was revealed that it has absolutely no magnetic pull whatsoever. That unfortunately killed it for me. The price was obviously MUCH nicer.
@@TehButterflyEffect Bad car take
I have to speed up most product reviews and skip like 30%(50% in some cases) of the video just to get the info I wanted know.
This video, or rather this channel, on the other hand is so densely packed with ALL the info you want and need to know. You won't even skip 1 second of the video because you would miss something.
And it all ends with just a list of the products and their capabilities and you're on your own. After all that's how it always goes no matter how many recommendations you get, the decision all comes down to you as to what you'll pick.
Spending 20 minutes watching this is better than listening to a friend's recommendation for a minute or 5-10 minutes of researching the internet.
I'm really glad I've come across this channel.
Now most of the tools that I'll pick up will come from whatever this channel have already tested.
Big thanks! All of this are really appreciated!
Thanks so much!
Very interesting how tech channels dip into tooling, and even more interesting when they keep up with very well established competitors! Gamers Nexus also offers (non-ratcheting) screwdrivers which seem very high quality, would be great to see their stuff included someday, wonder how they'd fare. When you're using daily the things you're making and you're not in the game primarily for money, it probably gives a good edge in developing really good tools (although at a higher price point).
Fantastic review as always! It's great to see that the work that LTT claimed to put into the driver was all towards making a fantastic tool. Thanks for the insane turnaround time on this review, obviously a ton of people were waiting on it before making a purchase decision on the LTT.
Great point!
LTT is just like megapro but at twice the cost of megapro. megapro wins imo
@@lordjaashin megapro doesn't have a magnet though
@@lordjaashin LTT was never claiming to be the value king, you can get 80% of the LTT Screwdrivers performance for 50% of the price with the Megapro.
It's up to you if you want to spend double the money or not for that last 20%
@@shubhamthakur8530 in what world is addition of magnet justifies $34 price increase? lol
The most impressive part is LTT being only slightly behind first place, at half of the price. Which is still twice the third, but that means their product is likely to be a solid choice for a casual user that has a bit more to spend on tools - which I think would be significant part of their audience
Wait.. what? No? A "casual" user is well adviced to buy one of the cheapest options. They are all doing what they were designed for: Rotating screws in a circle. A 70$ screwdriver will outlive every casual user by far.
well and it has biult in bit storage for 12 bits where as first place has nothing of the sort. Great value
In the end you're also buying a piece of merchandise. Most casual users won't need a $70 screwdriver. However, if you're in the market for a screwdriver, want to support LTT AND you have $70 to spend, at least the quality will be worth that money.
@@tmicecave I disagree. There's always a case for more expensive tools, even for casual users. For one the tool should be fun to use. A shitty ratchet might do the job, but a good one will save you some frustration. Same with every other tool. I don't see how you can view a tool outliving you being a bad thing, when it's probably the best quality in a tool you could hope for. People should conciously combat throwaway culture, which is one of the main reasons our planet is so close to being irreversibly fucked. Things that are made to last are always favorable. Doesn't mean you have to spend 70 bucks on a screwdriver, of course, but the cheapest option should almost always be out of the question
Thanks for the feedback.

An invaluable service to our industries. Thank you so much.

What screwdriver is best is absolutely dependent on the job. The best screwdriver for working on fine equipment that needs good torque control is not the same as the one that needs to put up with chemical splashes or one that needs to handle excessive torquing.
lol dream sub right here. He'll take it!
im still using a knife
I think in term of combined quality and bang for the buck, generally megapro is the best of all!
I was a little hesitant about the LTT driver. The price tag seemed high for a ratcheting driver. I get it now. It's a pretty good tool that can withstand a lot more damage than it's intended use will ever give it. The precision capabilities look great too.
It would be overcharging of this was only a relabeled big brand screwdriver. But, considering that they did put a LOT of design work into the screwdriver (three years or more!), and that they had to set up all the manufacturing, injection molding etc, I think that it's a reasonable price.
And indeed, most of the development time went into making the ratchet mechanism one of the best on the market (and the tests showed that this is where it shines).
I felt the same way, as soon as they said "zinc" I immediately expected it to break like all my old chinesium ratchets. This thing would outlast my hands.
The low backdrag to me is SO important for working on electronics. It's annoying when ratchets cannot actually ratchet without manual intervention on small fasteners you find in computers. Also the bit retention and fastener magnetic strength are extremely important. Without both of these, something like just putting in an M.2 SSD becomes terrifying as if you drop the screen and it slides under a cooler mount, or under the motherboard, you now have to spend hours taking apart the entire computer, reapplying thermal paste, etc; all because that fastener got away.
Personally I don’t think it’s worth it over the megapro since it’s based on it and performs just slightly better
It's clear there are 3 drivers in the roundup that are Megapro patent licensees. Both the Megapro and other licensee are half the price of the LTT driver. I like double-ended bits, so the Megapro appeals to me. $70 is a lot to spend for a screwdriver, and they *really* need to work on their locked performance so it feels like a regular screwdriver.
I learn SO Much from this channel! I bought the Wera multi driver because of the info. and because of reading all the great ratings on Amazon. Subscribed way back 2 thumbs up!

This really helps understand the pricing on the LTT. They really did make a good tool. They designed it specifically for computer tech, but it looks like it is a great tool all around.
And because it was designed with Linus in mind, people with smaller hands will have no issues with it either.
agreed I bought mine a few days ago before seeing this. I would much much rather buy one single high quality item that will last me for decades, than a bunch of crap that breaks, supports toxic industry, and simply isnt nice to use.

It is amazing that this review show LTT and PB swiss tool as top of the line, just with different optimization.

Bahco aswell. I got the Bahco that can rotate into a pistol grip. Its worked just fine for me. Although the moment it breaks i’ll probably get a Wera.

I had no concerns regarding LTT's claims to performance for their screwdriver, but this very well designed test only helps reinforce my purchasing decision. Its the right tool for me, now if only they'd make it in purple.
Just don't try to tighten anything too hard. Because the ratcheting mechanism was left out of the final results, testing ratcheting screwdrivers.
@@TheMijman I don't do anything that would require the torque to destroy that mechanism, and job dependent I would also have non ratcheting drivers.
@@TheMijman I mean, all of them broke at forces that you shouldn't be putting on any screwdriver let alone a ratcheting driver. If you need that kind of force you need an impact driver or something, not a hand tool.

I'm so conditioned to look for them in hand tool tests, I was really hoping Wiha made a ratcheting screwdriver but at least we got to see a Wera. This is a great lineup, that Megapro was very impressive. I did very much miss you sharing the country of origin when introducing each tool.
Thanks for the feedback.
most of the tools are made in China, where the company is based really doesn't matter its almost all chinese made.
Some exceptions, PB swiss serializes their tools so you can search where they were built but for most of the major brands just assume its MIC
I have the screwdriver made by Wiha and marketed with Xiaomi. It's very good. And, if memory serves, it wasn't very expensive.
well its because everybody knows Wiha is great(for the most part), I'm from the butterfly knife community and i would say a good amount of us are in the Wiha camp, every squid industries maintenance kit contains a Wiha t10 screwdriver for example, ive bought their entire set of torx screwdrivers for the hobby as well and a good bit of others i would think can attest to Wihas quality, dont get me wrong, i wanna see them compared too but i feel like that i could predict the outcome
That's probably because they all came from the same country...
