Hope this is the right section. I'm after a new screwdriver bit set (that also has the Torx bits). I've found a few sets but would be grateful for advice:

    Halfords Advanced stuff comes with lifetime warranty which is useful for things like this that are prone to snapping or rounding.  You also get 15% off at Halfords if you're a full member on here.

    Personally I get fed up with the individual bits though, they seem to be constantly dropping out of the holder after a few uses, usually into inaccessible places or getting lost as they're so small and hard to see.  I prefer the ones are set into sockets myself but that's just personal preference.

    Good point. Any advice on a decent set?

    I swear by a cheap multibit ratchet screwdriver from a tool shop.
    It has a lockable ball joint on it so very handy for angled screws.

    I have one of these: https://www.screwfix.com/p/titan-all-purpose-screwdriver-bit-set-100-pieces/8450h 

    and also a Screwfix Titan ratchet screwdriver (not sold anymore) in my toolkit in the car.

    The kit contains double or triple of the common sizes incase you round any off. Also contains Torx and Torx security bits, tri-wing, etc.
