Hi All,

I have a Makita Impact Driver and am after recommendations on a decent screw bit holder please.

Thanks in advance

There seems to be a few different types. Is this the right one:

I use these Makita gold impact holders.

Magentic, removable outer sleeve with magnetic ring which holds your screw and acts as a flush stop. Quarter the cost of a wera.

I tried the Makita one pictured above, I never seemed to get on with it?

Milwaukee do a set in a handy wee case

And when they wear out you can just keep refilling the case

I've found some brands of butter harder than milwaukee bits.

Thanks. Are there any additional suggestions before I make a decision from the two proposed options?

Some bits do not fit some bit holders properly.

how about some of these more compact bit holders:

prefer the 75mm ones myself plus those aren't designed for impact drivers, not that I've had any problem using them with said.

I bought the Wera Impaktor set as recommended on here. I use it with both the drill driver and the impact driver. Love it. It came with two of every bit so if you lost one, you still had another. The only negativity was the lack of a slot head bit.

I'd like to see you try to use a slot head bit in an impact driver.

Thanks all. I purchased the Wera Impaktor. So far, so good.
