Reddit mentions of LENOX Tools Screwdriver, 9-in-1 Multi-Tool (23932)

I have one of those but I prefer the Lenox. It's so good that bastards have robbed my last two.

This is a selection of what I keep in my tech go-bag. You'll build your kit as you learn and build experience, or realize you could have helped a customer out of a jam quicker if you had that tool with you.

  Various extra parts I've accumulated over the years like screws, ATX Molex Power to SATA Power Adapters, ATX Molex Y splitters, SATA cables etc..
  
  Good luck and some tools overlap like multi tools and pliers so if budget is low, go with the tool that covers the most jobs.
  
  Edit: I noticed your bag is kind of expensive compared to something like a Dewalt tool bag. I use a plain Dewalt bag which is not as cool as the one in the link, but it's just as tough. This might be a good and less expensive consideration for you if you don't require the look of a briefcase for your tool bag.
  
  Edit 2: You may want to mark your tools with a wrap of some crazy bright color electrical tape to be able to recognize them when they walk away.
  
  
  

Torpedo Level with a strong magnet

Flexible drill bit extension
You might not use this every install or service but it comes in so clutch when you need it
Multi Screwdriver

A couple different size pipe wrenches. 6” and a 14” I recommend Rigid
Copper pipe cutters. You’ll need a Close quarters tubing cutter and a Large tubing cutter
Bulldog Snips



Edit: I’ll keep adding shit

My recommendation is the Lennox 9-in-1. Sorry its not a 10-in-1. https://www.amazon.com/Lenox-Tools-23932-Multi-Tool-Driver/dp/B0013NX2DA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1493315025&sr=8-1&keywords=lenox+11+in+1+screwdriver It is very well made and durable.

The basic tools you need to handle most jobs are:

• A set of wrenches & sockets in the appropriate size (metric or standard)
  
• A couple Philips and flathead screwdrivers (or a multi-bit one like this
  
• A couple pairs of pliers, like needle-nose and a pair of channel-locks
  
  You can get really cheap tools at Harbor Freight. People will tell you they're shit tools, and they sometimes are, but you don't necessarily need lifetime-quality tools for all jobs. Start out with the cheap ones, if you break it, get a better quality one next time.

This thing: https://www.amazon.com/Lenox-Tools-23932-Multi-Tool-Driver/dp/B0013NX2DA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1495706886&sr=8-1&keywords=lenox+multi+screwdriver
I use this screwdriver for just about every project I have. Plus it comes built in with some socket drivers. Very handy

Never. Keep one in the house to put together furniture but that's it. I don't like them, I can screw stuff in faster with a regular screwdriver by holding the bit with one hand lightly and twirling the grip with my other hand.

This Lenox 9-in-1 is by far the best multi-screwdriver I've ever used (and I've tried almost everything on the market). And it's only 8 dollars. I bought two because they are so sturdy.

This one is so great because the bits do not jiggle around when using it, so it feels like a solid screwdriver.
