Things we can learn from the video
Press to jump
- 3:12Lorton measures the Kaiweets driver's torque across its adjustable settings on a digital tester.
- 15:45The Arrowmax SES Pro uses wrist gestures to control direction and speed.
- 19:10The SES Pro sometimes briefly turns in the wrong direction during motion-control testing.
- 28:15The Miniware demonstrates slow, precise rotation on the torque test rig.
- 31:42Spring-loaded bolts provide a shared practical test for comparing the screwdrivers.
- 39:02The Miniware completes the bolt test before Lorton gives his final comparisons.
A screwdriver that follows your wrist sounds convenient, until it briefly turns the wrong way. Martin Lorton catches that behavior while testing the Arrowmax SES Pro in "Electric Screwdriver Considerations / Review - Part 2 / 2", an older upload remaining active during a week with nothing new on mjlorton.
The review goes beyond opening cases and counting bits. Lorton measures torque on a digital test rig, explores the tools' controls and then drives spring-loaded bolts into a thread board. The Miniware's fine motor control earns particular attention; the Fanttik's lack of control draws criticism. These are small tools, but the differences become visible when the job demands finesse rather than force.
The channel drew roughly 9,700 views over the week, with subscribers unchanged at 266,000. Daily viewing is a little below its usual pace. Among the other active archive uploads are September's catch-up on magnifying loupes and wireless projects, plus a controlled test of radio-frequency amplifiers ahead of GPS experiments.
It was a modest week beside nearby workshop channels: Programming Electronics Academy drew a larger weekly audience, while Keith Rucker's machinery projects had a substantially busier week. For mjlorton, the enduring introduction remains the beginner voltage-measurement tutorial, its most-watched regular video, first posted in 2012.
