@rick Iirc, the LTT screw driver uses 1/4" hex bits (basically the kind of bits you'd get at your local ironmonger).

iFixit uses 1/4" hex for their Mahi set (the big bulky handle) but their Minnow, Moray and Mako sets all use 4mm (which are thinner).

@rick Didn't even know there was a 4mm to 1/4" adapter in the kit...

Already wondered what was up with it but never really gave it a thought as an adapter, TIL. XD

Still won't ever use it by choice but maybe if I'm in a pinch. :')

Also, bits are very much standardized:

• 4mm (Commonly used in electronics and fine mechanics - like watches).

• 1.4" ("golden standard").

• 5/16" (bigger mechanics - like car engines).

5/16" has been mostly replaced with 3/8" drive tho (like you'd find on a ratchet wrench).
