Decided against an electric torque screwdriver and have went for a new set of Klein drivers and ill look at buying the Klein SL/PZ2 driver to match.

Risky though when I've never held a Klein screwdriver before, might find i dont like them!

Anybody use them? I think they look like a decent driver.
I splurged on a Klein slotted for socket screws and it's a nice piece of kit... Seems to take abuse quite well too...
 
If it’s these they are decent


i also like the American version but are blooming pricey

One major downside of PZ/S, or whatever people like to call it, it the fact that it needs to be oriented correctly. Of all the commonly used methods of driving screws, I think it's unique in this regard.
 
high time they converted to torx or hex.
 
A flat head screwdriver also needs to be lined up

It does, but there's no possibility of using it in the wrong orientation.

The point I'm making is that PZ/S will line up in 2 orientations - one which grips correctly and one which might cam out under reasonable torque.

I’ve seen some sparks use a PZ/S2 on pozi screws

There's also that.

A lot of people never got the idea of using PZ with PZ and PH with PH. Chances are they aren't going to make this distinction either.

I like PZ/S, but don't believe it was the best solution for nipping up screws to fairly high torque.
