I purchased a Wera Kraftform Kompakt VDE 1 piece screwdriver set which I love.
However, the 247 Single-Pole voltage Tester screwdriver keeps breaking. I'm now on my third replacement!
My old voltage tester screwdriver I've had for over 25 years which was passed down to me by my father.
I only get to use a few times before the blade snaps.
I only use in ceiling rose pates, so I know I'm not over tightening.

Has anyone else had problems with the Wera 247 voltage tester screwdriver?
 
those are only reason why I do not like screwdriver sets. that "tester" will have to go to the bin, where it belongs, right after buying the set. what a waste.
there are screwdrivers for... well driving screws and testers are for testing. (either 2 probes and display or non contact like a fluke stick)
