I've seen them recommended in about every thread on torque drivers.

Good buddy of mine swears by them... which is better than swearing at them!

Nifty. And pricey. I have a foot long torque driver/wrench in my gun tool set. I can bring it to the range, but it is not field-portable. I will have to carry on without the fixit sticks.

I have contemplated ordering but have pushed back because of price. Might need to take another look at them.

Curious what your thoughts are on them. I have a brand new in the box set of the Leupold branded Fix It Stix for sale.

I have torque wrenches in every inch lb and foot lb increments but they are my work tools and are inventoried. So was thinking about getting a set to have in the truck. I am surprised nobody has used them.

I've been using an American made Proto torque driver for years. It's a very precise tool.

I've only had mine checked once and it was good.

I have never used, nor seen one before, looks like it would be handy though.

Yes. I have them. Very pleased. Probably best screwdriver/torque limiter set I've come across.
