The quick change chuck does a great job of converting a drill to a hex driver like the PS20. The drills have a hex drive adapter that is swedged on, unlike some of the others (Snappy for instance) which allow replacement of the bit by just loosening a set screw.The hard case is well designed except that it is intended primarily for the very short wire detent bits that really need a magnetic holder. All the bits work find in any of the hex drivers; PS20, I-Driver etc.Some of the bits are less than real useful for me particularly the ones aimed at socket usage.
This is the best drill bit set for the beginner: I recently bought a Panasonic EY6432GQKW 15.6-Volt NiMH 1/2-Inch Cordless Drill on Amazon. The clic-change chick is AWESOME: once you attach it to the Panasonic drill, you never need to tighten or loosen any other parts at all: changing from a drill bit to a screw driverbit takes seconds - just pull forward and remove, then push the new bit back in to attach.Makes any job with a drill simple.The screwdriver bits are magnetic and work well with a range of screw heads.Overall a great buy for the price.Nice compact carrying box too. Great drill by the way. I next needed a good drill bit set to work with.This has 5 drill bits that work really well - used it to drill holes in my kitchen cabinets to child proof them.
I bought this set for my brother to go with his Bosch 6.5AMP 3/8 inch drill. It is an excellent assortment with something for most every need.Bosch 1012VSR 6.5 Amp 3/8-Inch Drill
One mention: the conversion chuck does not fit the PS40, but you don't really need it since all bits/drills/. Everithing that is inside is very useful (I bought it for use around the house). I bought this with a Bosch PS40. I am very pleased with the quality of the bits/drills/. fit in the screwdriver. and of the case.
But that is me and my requirements. There are no useful longer length bits for use without the adapter, nor Torx or a variety of square drives. I think that would also be more useful for almost everyone. Being new to the Clic-Change world of Bosch, since I bought one of those drivers here at Amazon, I did not have a collection of the bits and such that fit those tools. Well, seventeen of the pieces are just those little one-inch bits you can find in jars on the counter of any hardware store. They fit into a magnetic holder, another very inexpensive item you probably already have. Still, It would be nice to have a kit without the chuck, with some longer Phillips bits (at least) and the complete set of drills. I think that Bosch's choice for the contents of several of their kits is questionable and they don't exactly give this stuff away.So, for the contents of this kit, and the price, I have to knock off a couple of stars.
I bought this set thinking that, good, it has all this stuff and the case will keep it together. I don't want the chuck that adapts quick-change system to conventional drills. Bosch quality is always good and this kit would be useful for those with very limited requirements, but I think the marketing people overrode the tool people in this case. And why just the four drill bits when there are a couple of more sizes available for this system.Doing it again, I would have bought these parts separately off the display rack.
