Pros & Cons
Pros
Makita c-clip holder is very durable and easy to remove. Easy to remove tip, but difficult to remove the retaining ring. Not the most aggressive product out there, but it was enough to break harbor freight extensions.
A strong headlamp is handy. The magnet will hold onto a good sized screw as well. It also manages to magnetize every bit i put in it.
Cons
The retaining ring is simply overkill, makita - you need to modify the assembly of this thing so that the customer doesn't need to put the thing in a vice and extract the retaining with with a pick.
Highlights
Quality
Heating the spring with the bit inside helps to expand for easily removal
For the price and brand this is the best
I thought these were too good to be true at this price even with the makita name behind them
It looks like a good quality adapter
Price
Cant beat the price assuming you can get that clip out it wasnt very easy
These would still be a good deal at twice the price i paid
Packaging/appearance
I grabbed a pair of scissors and pried on the clip and it came flying out instantly never found where it went actually it came out so fast
Competitiveness
I normally use them in my 18v ryobi impact driver
Cannot beat the makita brand most days

If you remove the springs the whole issue of retained bits are gone

The bite this thing puts on a bit mine and others based on some reviews makes it impossible to remove it without the help of tools

Someone labeled their review as “virtually extremely difficult” to remove a bit and there’s no virtually to it… it’s a grip that won’t give it up

Some have rated the holder poorly because of this issue but that’s why i purchased it… and because i’m cheap and it was only 3bucks

I’ve climbed a ladder and found the bit fell out somewhere on the ascent and though the bits aren’t expensive it is annoying
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Use the knife to slip under one end of the ring and pry it out in one motion
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Don’t turn away due to the reviews of bits getting stuck in them
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Dont waste your time with all the lowcost units on amazon because their magnets are weak and cant hold the screw on the bit adequately
