There are a number of others that are designed for impact drivers but Milwaukee are the best, IMO. |

Get good quality bits and your problem goes away. If you buy off Amazon or eBay then you get 3rd world quality, not 1st world. Try some Hazet tools some time as an example of 1st world quality. Be sure you get them from a factory authorized distributor or you are likely to just buy counterfeit. https://www.hazet.de/produktkatalog/index.php?language=en There is a reason why some brands of tools cost more than others...

Better quality. Something that actually does what it promises? |

I remember the days when I could look at the PC and actually draw a schematic of the circuit. Usually I could just "see" the circuit in my mind but some were a bit more complex so I had to draw it out. It actually got easier when they started designing the more modern, rather than hand drawn. I could count the foils "from the big one" and add and subtract as needed. It actually got easier than following the old point to point circuits which I used to do well. But now I am a bit lost. I find the old Tektronix type ceramic bindings a bit easier to follow, but not much. I guess I am just losing it. I actually could follow a two sided board until everything got too small. I had good spatial reasoning and could turn the board, or me, to see the other side and lock my eyes to the point where I wanted to see. |

Stayed proper time for 2 hours now, whether it stays un-reset for the next week, the longest otherwise, we'll see. |
