I need a cheap set of extended bits (e.g. hex 4, 5, 6 etc) that is compatible with this ratchet. Finding it difficult finding such a set on amazon.

The ratcheting device failed within a week. Have had more success with a unit made by craftman. Never failed but have lost 2.

I haven't looked for other bits yet, but I would think someplace like Home Depot or Lowes would carry them. I have a set of longer bits that came in a gunsmithing screwdriver set made by Wheeler Engineering, I believe I got it from Midwayusa for $20 when it was on sale-they work just fine. Good luck!

These are a great little set for your tool, good selection good quality and great price. If you plan to do an extensive amount of work with your driver, you might consider buying a magnetic bit holder which allows you to buy the individual tips in a broad assortment sold in all lumber yards, hardware stores, etc even here on Amazon. Bit holders come in different lengths for getting into tight areas where it is not large enough for the driver, but still need to get the tip way back there in the far corner. Look about and you will find a vast selection to choose from. I personally have bit holders from 2 inches to 12 inches and use them all for different applications. Best of success with your project!!

Any drill bit will work. Home Depot, Walmart, Sears, Amazon, Lowes, any hardware store. Bits with the 1/4 inch adapter on the end are at Home Depot, Lowe's, and Amazon.

No. only accepts 1/4" hex shaft bits...I use it with a set of cheap adapters also from amazon which allow me to use all of my smaller 1/4" and 3/8" drive sockets with it.

short and Long #2 phillips screwdriver bits and ones I use most outside standard drills.I had a good assortment of drill bits already and they all work.I picked up a 1/4 inch socket drive to use with my 1/4 inch sockets and that works great.

Yes, the chuck is standard 1/4" hex and will accept any driver bit of that size. Driver bit sets with all styles and sizes are readily available anywhere.

Kevin, I already had a rechargeable screwdriver with 12 bits (probably standard size) included with it that also worked fine with this flex ratchet, so I haven't purchased any bits on Amazon. Anita

The (lightly magnetic) bits from my older cordless screwdriver fit and stay just fine in this one. Perhaps it is simply a matter of the bits you have. I was missing some bits from my old set, so I bought the Black & Decker 71-081 Double Ended Screwdriving Bit Set, 10-Piece. I figured it was hard to go wrong for $5. As they should, they fit and stay just fine.

This takes hex drive bits and drivers. I already had everything I needed but I did a little research for you. Black & Decker has a "71-973 Quick Connect 30 Piece Drilling and Screwdriving Set" for $19.99 Amazon Prime. This is probably all a casual user of this Hitachi driver would need.

The answer to this conundrum is a drill adapter set. This rapid load holder takes the standard hex shank quick-change bits. The type of set here [http://www.amazon.com/Snappy-Drill-Bit-Adapter-Set/dp/B003AS9JXS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid;=1388951160&sr;=8-1&keywords;=snappy+drill+adapter] will, I believe, accommodate your 51 and 52 bits. 53 maybe not, but see information about these adapters.

Technically yes, drill bits with hex ends are available, that's all you can use. The speed however of the driver is pretty slow for drilling

That depends on the hard drive and its fasteners. This is a normal 1/4" drive mini set that comes with the ratchet. If you need another kind, you can buy one at any hardware store. It would help to know what fastener you need. Many hard drives just use various size Philips screwdrivers, for example, and that is no problem.

yes anything with standard chuck should work if the chuck is 3/8 some larger bits might not fit!1/2 bits probably wont fit!

Hi JC. To my knowledge and use, the bit extender is for use with full size driver bits and does not accept the narrow leatherman bits securely.

Regular bits do not work. We bought some hex bits that do fit the Makita. We also bought a chuck that fits the shaft that takes regular bits. The chuck has worked well with the exception of a few problems loosing the keyless chuck that is not an issue with the Makita.

If u simply want to fit a bit of any length you might have such already in your toolbox. Leave the cartridge out, close the slide completely and place any 1/4" hex based bit into the chuck. U can buy many types of bits of ever shaped head, nut driver including drill bits with the 1/4" hex based shanks that fit the chuck. The chuck is magnetic so the bit stays pretty well.
