GADGET GURU

Q CHRISTIAN SMITH

What’s the best tech screwdriver?

A Guru’s oldest and most Canadian enemy, Linus off of YouTube behemoth Linus Tech Tips, would have you believe it is his ratcheting LTT Screwdriver, with the bits hidden in a fancy pop-out compartment in the handle. Through gritted teeth GaGu will admit that it is a nice screwdriver – but at US$105 factoring in shipping, plus the emotional cost of a month’s wait for it to hit Australian shores from the great white north, it’s probably not the wisest purchase if you’re watching the pennies.

You could also go for an iFixit toolkit, a smaller option with more bells and whistles, but that’s about the same price, again from Chinese non-brand like Yinsan. These were imported in bulk, which GaGu supposes makes it more okay.
