Having replaced my dud little electrical screwdriver with the cheapo
MacAlister one from Screwfix I am now searching for the best bit size for
slotted screws which are in light switch and 13A sockets.
Measuring the width they look to be about 7mm.
So do I co for a 7mm bit, or slightly under size with a 6mm bit?
I seem to be awash with Posidrive bits at the moment but not ones for
slotted screws.
I bought a set of flat bladed bits off Ebay ranging from may be 3mm to
8mm for a few pounds, with long round sections after the hex part.
Quality seems OK.
(I also found some other bits with extended shanks- torx, hex, Pozi, ....)
