    We've gotten a lot of great feedback about the LTT Screwdriver, but sometimes you need something a bit smaller to get the job done. Luckily, the new LTT Stubby screwdriver is here to show that sometimes size does matter. Linus is here to show it off alongside our new solid-color screwdrivers available on lttstore.com

    I work a maintenance job and love the long shaft. It sits in my back pocket all day. Having 13 bit option and being able to reach in an awkward place and have the back drag be so light it can start threading in even tiny screws is a game changer. I have no use for the short one but reccomend the hell out of the screwdriver if you daily use one. You dont understand until you use it.

    • @myopinion69420

      yeah, its insane how good it actually is. I actually enjoy assembling furniture and stuff now.
      I have used to assemble everything from car speakers and kids toys to swing sets and trampolines.
      it lives on my desk and whenever anything home maintenance related needs to be done its strait into the pocket with the 13 bits.
      its the only screwdriver I have ever had where I actually end up using the built in bit storage and not be lazy and end up loosing half the bits. all the other ones have all been 'they all rattle around in the back with a very cheap screw on cap' or 'they go in around the shaft in holes that are to small so impossible to get in and out or to big so bits just fall out' setups.

    • @myopinion69420

      ​@@htr5372 on the contrary, I have used much more expensive screw drivers, but they tend to not have bit storage, at least not ones that are readily available here in Australia.
      Hell, while ratcheting screwdrivers do exist here, nearly all of them are the cheap crappy ones. have not actually seen a 'premium' one on a shelf.
      even a lot of the more expensive non ratcheting screwdrivers that have bit storage fall into that category of the bit storage being an afterthought and being annoying to use. not only is this solution easy, it is also satisfying which makes me more likely to use it.
      believe me, I am no fanboy, this screwdriver is the only piece of 'merch' I have ever owned and that's not just from LTT or other youtubers, that also includes from bands (assuming you don't count CD's as merch) or football teams etc.
      don't get me wrong, there are things that could be better. for one, looking at it I am sure they could have fit a full 12 normal bits in if they made a few small optimisations in the top cap, and base of the mechanism and also removed that redundant bit separator (the little black piece that stops the bits sliding up and down between the slots) as the top section and bottom section can rotate independently, you can just align them so they don't line up to stop the bits.
      also, not a huge fan of the in-out play in the shaft, but as the only time you notice it is when you are actively looking for it, its not really a problem.

    My dad was a mechanic for the over 40 years. He mocked the full sized screwdriver costs but I let him try it out. He lamented that it was as good as it was and available now after he retired. He and I agree that it is about $10 USD more BUT for a good warranty and solid driver, worth it.

      @daniwalmsley611 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

      Given what inflations been like I could've seen them doing the same thing as they did with blank tees, using the slightly cheaper one to subsidise/avoid price hikes on the full size driver.
      Alternatively they could've also justified it the same way they do with water bottles, and desk pads. That is you choose the size you want and don't have to pay a premium for wanting a bigger screwdriver.
      But this would've likely have led to controversy and it feeling like price gouging/profiteering. People will be a lot more receptive to the message there's not much cost difference between the two if it also comes with a price drop. It's unfortunate that product launch order affects consumer perception so much

So many places it was too long and I had to use regular stubby screw drivers. The second I seen this video I opened another window and ordered one as the video was starting. Thank you so so much for making a stubby. I know without a doubt it will get as much or more use than the full size one.

    Just ordered one. The other one has served well as an EDC. My only complaint is that they still haven't R&D a compact case for the screwdriver with a built-in holder for all the available bits you can purchase. That'd be sweet. Unlike the average who only uses a flathead or Phillips 99% of the time, I've had to break into all the boxes. Having a uniform case for the brand would be awesome.
    I'm excited about the stubby though. There have been a few times when I've needed to use a stubby because the regular one wouldn't fit and had to sideline my LTT screwdriver #sad. Not anymore baby. Anyone looking to make a purchase and can only buy one, buy the stubby for a multitude of reasons.
