Gardner Bender SDT-10 Circuit Alert® Voltage Sensing Screwdriver, 10-In-1

I was looking for an insulated screwdriver-combo (Phillips/flat) the removable voltage sensor clinched the deal, not that I was looking for that feature in a screwdriver, but I try to carry as few tools in my belt as possible and this cuts out the voltage sensor I did carry before, as a separate tool. The sensitivity and robust/compact quality build of the sensor in this screwdriver is what I really like! The sensor is compact, sturdily built and the button battery connections are solid! I have carried other sensors where the button batteries are always vibrating loose or making poor connection, making the sensor unreliable! The GB SDT-10 Sensor is really well designed!

Love this tool! The only thing I don't like is the placement of the testing button. You can't turn it at all without pressing the button. But I highly recommend it

Nice loud, current notification, and good insulation on the screwdriver and good screwdriver bits.

Even though this item completely failed in the industrial environment, I am rating it 4 stars because I believe for the home owner this is a great option. I have had it for a few months now and love the feel of it. Where it fails is durability and safety. After taking a tumble off a ladder the voltage finder no longer works. As for safety, the short bits fall out constantly. While opening a 480v bucket the tip got cought in the cheater slot and almost fell into the line connections. Replaced it with a megapro and will be taking this one home.

Great product, fair price. I love it

I like that it's a combination screwdriver/ voltage indicator. The shaft holds the bits in place very well while using. However, during the process of losening and tightening my thumb continues to press the on/off button for the indicator. I've tried to hold it at other angles but it didn't seem to help. If the indicator button were on the button end of the handle I think it would be fine. Another issue is the inability to do a quick change with the bit set. As most electricians know, different products come with different bit types and sizes. And if my goal is to be efficient with one tool then that tool itself should be also. To change bits I have to remove the current bit from the nut driver shift, cup it in one hand, using the same hand because the other is holding the tool I have to remove the voltage indicator , cup that also, extract the desired bit, which is stored too tightly, replace with the first bit, reinstall the indicator, insert the new bit into the nut driver shaft?and hope to not drop any of it.perhaps if the nut driver shaft were designed to be removed and flipped around in one move and the on/off button for the indicator were relocated, I would say this is one of my favorite tools. But until then I cnfnnn̈an only rate this product with 3 out of 7 stars.

Well made. Easy to use!

handy for a pro or homeowner. just be sure to test on known live circuit first & always, to verify it's working. there's a reason they call these "deadsticks" a few extra bucks for a really nice & handy multi-driver. I've used these @ work for years,finally bought my own!!

Works great, always test before use everyday on a known live circuit and known dead circuit.

Al abrir el empaque se le desprendió el balín que sujeta la guía hexagonal para las puntas. Por suerte yo tenía un modelo más antiguo de un desarmador de la misma marca y pude rescatar esa misma pieza

I dont like the bee that does even if there is no power in the wires still beep
