Dismantle your gadgets quickly, and for less money
I have a lot of screwdriving solutions, and it is my earnestly held belief that each one is beautiful and special. Sometimes you need the power and endurance of the impact driver, other times the compact ratcheting screwdriver with the extra bits tucked away in its butt.
But one screwdriver I reach for more often than you’d think is this USB-C rechargeable electric screwdriver from Hoto with adjustable torque and a built-in ring light. And right now it’s on sale at a steep discount as part of Amazon Prime Day.
First recommended to me (endlessly) by my colleagues at The Verge, I purchased it because . well, again, all screwdrivers are beautiful and special. But its convenience has helped it earn a spot in my office, instead of the garage, when I need to tinker on some gaming stuff. A brief list of things I’ve used the Hoto electric screwdriver to do:
Upgrade the SSD in my Steam Deck
Replace the display, and both front and back covers, of a perhaps too well-loved Nintendo Switch
Open retro controllers to give them a good tub.
