APEXEshok-Guard 1/4" Isolated Bit Holder (CAEBH2C)

Excelente

This pretty much turns an electric screwdriver into an insulated electric screwdriver. That's a handy thing to save repetitive motion strain if you're working around energized electrical equipment.Some have pointed out that the bits are held in pretty tightly at the end. That's a good thing! The last thing you want in a live panel is to have a bit fall out. They're easy enough to remove with your fingers if they're dry, or if not you can pull them out with pliers.I'm going to buy some of these for gifts...

I have the full set in my bag... 1/2, 3/8, 1/4 sockets and 1/4 hex. Small and easy to carry, while providing extra protection. I even use them on my insulted drivers/extensions to provide double insulation. Helps prevent arcing in tight panels/boxes. With electricity, you need to be careful and never just rely on the tool for protection.

My day to day job is working on a Chevron oil field lease as a maintenance Journeyman Electrician. I normally use a 1/4 impact shank with a 5/16 end to replace starters and other parts from live panels. Unfortunately that tool isn't insulated but this bad boy gives me that piece of mind with protection of electric shock when I'm in that panel everyday.

I sometimes dig around electrical panels for work, installing and removing the occasional 30-amp breaker and screwing in a loose ground wire. This always makes me nervous, so I feel much safer using insulated screwdrivers and bits. The last thing I want is to sneeze and shove my screwdriver in the wrong place and burn a hole through my hand or worse.In spite of this danger, I also hate carrying around purpose built screwdrivers because of the extra space and weight they take up. So this little adapter solves that problem completely.My only complaint is that there’s a bit of slop in the bit holder resulting in a fair bit of play at the end of the bit. Electrical work is delicate work so it’d be nice if the tolerances were a little tighter.I would recommend this to anyone

Great but kinda gets stuck once you switch out bits

I love the idea of this tool, unfortunately the quality is very poor. Upon opening the package, I put a brand new bit in the tool. The bit immediately got stuck, I then damaged the tool trying to get it out.

If use another type of bit you can't get it out. And then the tool is no longer any good. They need to find a better way to get the other bits to remove out of the device.
