JIS Impact Screwdriver --- Thanks for the post!

[Scout]

Thanks to originally posted this but I can't find the thread to save my life. A bargain and a well made tool! Saw this link on this forum and bought one. Ordered it and took only two days to get it. Gave it to a friend who is a metric wrencher and he loves it

I looked at your link and thought "that's a nice looking screwdriver, but I don't see the 'impact' part of it".

Then I read the description. Apparently the twisting mechanism is hidden inside the 'normal'-looking handle. Nice.

i'm think it may have been ME !!!
I love mine, and can't believe I didn't mess up more screws than I did in all the years of messing with bikes!
I still use a regular #3 phillips with a slightly ground off tip for a lot of screws, but this Vessel is being used with more regularity.

I use the JIS for normal stuff but the bits in the impact driver seem to fit the screws just fine. The tip was years back because that's when I ordered 2 short ones and 2 long ones

That's an awesome deal as well, very nice tool.

Both the #2 & #3 with 150mm shafts are on my wish list.

hmmmm, I wonder about how much torque there could be in a long skinny shank like these versus me twisting a driver with my hand while tapping with a mallet...oh well.

F=ma do the math...........

FYI... Amazon has these for sale too. I just orders the #2 P2x100 980 impacta (fit JIS) for $11.46 with free shipping.

Thanks to whoever found these originally & shared them with us. I hope they live up to their reputation thus far.

Cheers

I think better you choose one impact driver like DeWalt 1/4" and It sale on blackFriday on Amazon. It is high power and i highly recommend

Chris, if you want the ultimate set look at the set VMASS listed above, very nice set with 150mm long shafts on the Impact, P2 & P3 drivers, they feel so much nicer to use than the shorter 100mm models.

The price of $73.00 US is great deal for what you get.

David.

PS did you get the "L" running yet?

And this eBay seller is great. I ordered this set on a Friday and it was delivered on Monday.

Finally had the chance to use the Impacta on a set of carbs. A great improvement over the standard impact. Consider it a must have!

When I bought a few JIS Vessel screwdrivers from RR Tools about 2 years ago, there was no mention of the Impacta yet.

With our devalued currency and international shipping charges, getting one now is wishful thinking for me!
