i tried this kept having problems with library, spent a good hour trying to troubleshoot code to look for any mistakes, searched it turns out arduino uno does support this library, sadly it doesn't have that chip, welp that was sadly painful guess ill need to buy an arduino with that chip, lmao i thought all arduino was the same just different sizes. guess its back to aliexpress for that chip arduino hahahaha.

What happens if you disconnect one of the output wires while the motor is running? If the chip burns, you would need external schottky diodes to VCC and GND on every output pin. Synchronous rectification won't be good enough in that scenario.

When I started using these, nobody else was or at least posting about it. There were more expensive then but still less than the internet's fave. I have been using them in repurposed RC and toys. The current project is using the 16 channel LED/servo chip to handle multi-motor construction toys. Working to expand some code to use with two wheel or track steering/drive incorporating the servo chip. "RC Tractor Guy" wrote the base code that is being hacked on. Fun fact: most of the cheap Chinese RC toys have H-bridge chips that match the pinouts of the TI chip. Some match the specs exactly. There is a strange two H-bridge chip that the pinout make it feel like there are two chips in one package. Separate Vcc, gnd, and unspecified outputs that wasn't connected.

I personally wouldn't buy the screwdriver because it wouldn't be an every day tool for me. I have several sets of precision screwdrivers powered & manual that serve my uses. I'm not a fanboy of any tool brand. I have tools that are cheap Chinese off brands to even a couple tool truck tools. My motto is "the best tool is the one that works for you that you can afford"

I think your statements on the screwdriver are probably the best example I've seen of intellectual honesty when it comes to product "reviews" on your channel. If someone casually asked me if you were an LTT fanboy, I'd respectfully say yes :) That, combined with the fact that you spent your own money on it, gives you every reason to want to justify your purchase.

Yeah I am a fan - I think he's still a capitalist, so his business is profit-focused, but as a capitalist he's about as chill as they come. He could have sold the company and cashed out 8 (or 9, I don't remember how much he said but at least 8) digits and destroyed the channel in the process but he didn't. Also the staff have enormous freedom compared to "traditional" capitalist businesses. He also drops VERY high paying sponsors when they do wrong by the fanbase, doesn't take crypto scam ad money, no gambling money etc etc

I'm not a hater or a fan of LTT, but as a tool enthusiast / collector, I bought one of the LTT ratcheting screwdrivers. I have to say the rstchet components are really great and work very smooth with little back drag. I still prefer the Wera ratcheting screwdriver, but this one really holds up.

It's obviously a well-designed and machined bit of kit. I just can't do the ratcheting screwdriver. I feel that so many times I'm in an awkward position and I go to use the tool.... and it's geared for the other direction. That alone outweighs the benefits for me. Super cool that they exist and that people love them. Thanks for the video. This is the first review of it that I've watched.

When unscrewing things, I usually hold the screwdriver closer to the shaft, use the handle and ratchet to loosen the screw, and then use the knurling to take it the rest of the way out, much faster and the screw comes fully out that way, and still one-handed.

You spend a lot of time complaining about the back drag. Project farm did a direct comparison with 13 other competing ratcheting drivers and the LTT driver was by far the lowest of all tested. It didn't win every category, but it handily won that one. I agree with the drag on the bit storage feeling gritty - mine is the same way... but it is not a magnetic closure. I guess, I never opened it slow enough to notice before you mentioned it.
@SimpleElectronics
@SimpleElectronics 8 күн бұрын
Well I spend a LOT of time listening to the WAN show - I just think the backforce was overstated. I don't think they did a bad job - in fact I do conclude that in practice it works great. I also cite the Project Farm video right off the bat. Are you sure it isn't a magnetic closure? It definitely has something to hold it closed - feels very magnetic to me
@ElementalITcc
@ElementalITcc 8 күн бұрын
@@SimpleElectronics Linus specifically states on the WAN show that it is not a magnetic enclosure. I think it is an over center mechanism. It is the part of the mega-pro that they licensed outright, btw. the ratchet from the megapro they modified. I just don't know how much less back force you can expect to have if it is less than any other driver available - like the next closest one in Project Farm's testing was 50% more back drag 9.1grams vs 13.9grams... then 19.5grams for 3rd place. compared to a Klein or snap-on - it's night and day. It's like telling Michael Phelps... "yeah, but you didn't win 25 gold medals, so..." There's lot's to fairly ding the thing for, and you hit on several of them, but the back drag is just not it.

Would a PZ1 bit have fitted those screws better? I often find the difference between PZ and PH is miniscule, and sometimes it's just a case of trial and error to find the bit that fits the screw the best. No idea why there are 2 standards that are almost precisely the same, but not quite same enough! Must say that my go-to screwdriver is the sort you get from Poundland in the UK, the type that Big Clive uses. The bits are made of cheese, but you can just buy a replacement every couple of months 😀

Does this also have torque control? If not, I've been using a comparable Kobalt ratcheting screwdriver (~$45) for the past like 10 years, and it works like the day I bought it. The Kobalt screwdriver is quite heavy (unsure of exact weight), so it may give you hand fatigue if you are doing lots of smaller work. I enjoy the weight for my projects personally.
