Armeg Insulated screwdrivers

[Specialist]

Just wondering if any of you use Armeg insulated screwdrivers ?, They look good but just wondering if they are.

Yes I do. I've tried most makes these are some of the best. They even stand up to the classic electrician trick of using a 4mm for pozi screws!

Cheers Buddy: Appreciate the reply, Will order some in the morning.
Use a 4mm for Pozi screws ? Perish the thought, .

Really need a new set! Haven't even got a terminal driver. Ooops

Not bad only a fiver more than weras.
Bit weary of flea bay though.
Google searched armeg and came up with the interchangeable set for £50

If that price is for the Armeg switchblade set it's cheap. The bay has some bad sellers but a lot of good sellers too. Not had too many problems over the last 10 years of Buying / Selling on there.

Not sure if they're trusted either.
Selling cheap MFTs have a quick search for reviews for them. Could do with my own MFT

Bought a couple of bits off isswww & so far not had a problem with them. Dealt with test-meter.co.UK as well & they're really good guys.

Yeah isswww are a Google trusted vendor. Seems to be the few odd issues of people not getting confirmation emails but overall seem good.

And test meter sponsors this forum?

 

[Specialist]

Yes mate: test meter do apparently sponsor the forum, but the reason I mention them is the quality of service I've had from them in the past. When I've had a question regarding a purchase, they've gone out of their way to answer it.

I bought my Megger MFT1731 from these guys. Only problem I had was they didn't deliver when they said they would because the calibration guy wasn't available.

I have had 2 sets of Wera, the £20 set withthe black tips and I think £30-35 for the brass tipped set.

The black tip set held their tips better and longer on the Pz1&2.

I grabbed a set of the Klein vde that CEF had for £30+Vat a couple months back, so far I find them better than the Wera, but I thought lifetime guarantee if they honour it might save me money in the long run.

£30+ vat, was that just for 1 or 2 ?. Our local branch are listing them as £43+ vat for 1 x 6mm flat & 1 x No2 Pozi.

Not bad at all, thanks. Already put in an order for an Armeg set, so will have to we how they pan out.

I can't take them seriously if they throw in a contact neon! It puts me right off! Maybe it's just me!

Neons make good terminal screwdrivers & have a nice handy pocket clip.

£30+ vat, was that just for 1 or 2 ?. Our local branch are listing them as £43+ vat for 1 x 6mm flat & 1 x No2 Pozi.

It was a set of 5, for £29.95 plus Vat.
Pz1+2, a terminal a 4mm and a 5.5mm I think is the bigger one.

Hi Phil: Cheers for the reply mate, wish ours would do an offer like that. Klein are supposed to be top quality kit, when I went in to get a price they reckoned a pair of Lineman's & 2 screwdrivers I was looking at well over £100. I don't like the look of them that much
