Hex Drivers and Tips

[Ashlandchris]

Evening all. Just wondered what experience others had of the various tools out there. I have the standard Arromax hex drivers (purple / silver) and note that the tips of the regularly used one (2mm) “rounds off” and needs replacing moderately frequently. Has anyone any experience of whether the higher price of either the more expensive Arromax (the honeycomb black ones for example) are any better or is the higher price simple because it looks flashier?
So - what are the best tools if I was to replace my set of drivers?

Using the mip ones here and never had an issue

MIP 1.5mm and 2.0mm.

You can get just the tips for a power driver or normal handle ones. They also sell ball end ones also if you can't get perpendicular to the head.

I usually go through one 2mm a year (But I build and strip down a lot of R/C cars) but they hold up very well and are precision bits with great tolerances.

Mip are about the best lasting tips from what I've used, but still eventually wear.
Arrowmax are OK, with cheap tips, so can replace them as often as you need.
In my experience the brown tips of the purple Arrowmax last the same as the gold tips of the honeycomb ones so that's just a look thing.
