If you use an impact driver You ABSOLUTELY Need to see this new TOOL! 

I have about six of these. Best implementation of making bits magnetic. They even work on Milwaukee's non hex shaped bits. And if you leave them on long enough and take them off the bit still stays magnetic. I'd love how these don't fit proprietarily on bits. The bits don't have to have that proprietarily sized torsion zone like makita's old mag boost or dewalts version and click into place and sit at the end of bits limiting your access into recessed fasteners. I even put one on a 12" wiha screwdriver for work so I can get into the hard to reach spaces of the copiers I work on and not lose the screws down the developer or into the ITB belt. They're just a fantastic reimagining

I'm glad they brought it back. I still have a unopened old mag boost. Since I used it for the first time around 2015 I went back and bought about 5. I was disappointed when they stopped selling them and replaced them with the silver ones.

I have been using the klein tools magnetizer for almost a year now, I have it clipped to my tool bag and can use it with anything, and it has been great so far.

just ordered 2, THANK YOU this will be an absolute life saver with the frustration reduction I always have on car interior panels!

I had one years ago and lost it, never been able to find them. Great news Clint!!!!!

That's impressive! All my bit holders only have COMMON Earth magnets.

All these Makita videos you’ve been doing lately… I’m starting to think that you and Makita are really friends!

As of 8:30am on 3-1-2024 these are 21% off @ Amazon - now $3.97. Makita E-01345 Impact XP Mag Boost

Great review. Nice of you to put that much time and effort out. Sold me in the first 30 seconds. Thank you!

I need this for my sockets and wrenches for installing bolts in tight spaces.

I recently picked up one of these to replace one of the older metal Mag Boosts that I gave to a coworker. I was almost instantly disappointed with it. I liked the way the older version locked onto my bits, even though being able to slide it out of the way. My biggest complaint is that it comes apart, the green and black plastic pieces come apart too easily. I hope they fix this.

I loved these!! They discontinued them years back!! Because of this I am headed to Home Depot in the morning!!!

Good one, just the solution I was looking for.

Sold me! Just bought one through your Amazon link. Thanks for sharing

Finally something that I can really use. Thanks.

This is a must have for me.

Thanks, Clint, I just lost the one I'd been using and you brought this to my attention as an upgrade replacement.

If you guys just accepted the Robertson, you'd never need goofy crap like that. Also, the Dewalt version stays on bits easier.

Clint it will work on stainless if it is a low-grade of stainless steel

Comparison showdown of mag sleeves from different brands would be fun and....well....real nass like!

Cool video Clint. Good job!!!!

I always wondered if it was worth buying

Just dropped it in the wishlist, thank you! One thing I've noticed about DeWALT is they don't like to put magnets on their tools. What I mean is their tape measure comes with a magnet clip that attaches to it, rather than the blade itself being magnetic. Same with their 4 in one screwum driber, (I got nicknames for gear too) LOL. I have one of the DeWALT plastic version of this because it came with my 4 in one, but I don't use it often because the magnet collar makes it hard to see the screw head. The Makita one is a step up.

This was another great video done by you!!

Guess I'm headed to the depot today

Does it eork with Milwaukee bits

Thanks bro. Nayce like

This is pretty cool, especially since we normally can't choose the fasteners we need to work with. Lots of Phillips garbage out there for sure.

Nice video once again because of you. I'm headed to homedepot again, lol.

I've been using the Milwaukee bit magnets for over a year. 😂

That is "shweet shweet shweet"! Thanks Clint! 😂

I have the bigger version of this.The magnetic hold is amazing but hides the tip of the bit a bit

I have tried all different brands of these similar items and IMO Makita has the strongest holding power of magnets there is .

On the packaging it shows the black part facing the collet on drill or impact driver

I need one to go with my DeWalt and Milwaukee do dads. Awesome video 👍🏻

I have to correct you on something. There are two main stainless steels. One is magnetic and one is not. Usually the surgical stainless is non magnetic. Just so you know that some stainless is magnetic.

I'd like to have a larger version that fits on ratchet extensions. Be nice to not drop or lose nuts and bolts because you cannot get your hand on or under it as it comes completely loose.

I bought this about 6 months ago I just bought another 2 yesterday be aware the black magnet cover can come off and be lost Hense the repurchase lol

The Milwaukee magnetic impact screw holder works great.

Wow! Holy smoke, Batman! :)

Robertson fasteners are the way to go!!

That's cool 😎

You don't also have brass screws in the U.S.?

I love your videos

They brought them back. Had one years ago. It went MIA. The other exposed magnets for bits break too easy I get non Makita ones on Amazon Bosch makes the best bits. And the they have more hex shank for these magnets Robertson/square bits are what should be the standard. Torx are a good idea and better than Phillips but too many failure points

I enjoy the makita gnome so much more now lol

You have reviewed the Makita Mag Boost and the Milwaukee Mag Boost. Which one do you like better and recommend over the other?

I believe I saw that Milwaukee also either has released one or will be releasing one in the near future

Do you think it’s better than the Milwaukee I have the dewalt one and think it sucks was going to get this or Milwaukee

Cool Clint 😎

I did not realize makita make a new gen i got enough of them adapters

Craftsman has been doing this for years , they even included it with screw driver kits . you would just rub it on your driver or bits a few times and boom its magnetized for a few uses ....

He seems very very pesky!!! That would definitely come in handy. I may have to check one out. Thanks for more great content brother!!

Gnome looks like an older Vince.

dewalt put out something similar with their bit sets

Put that on a square adaptor and it will keep bolts in the socket.

Don't use on server racks or magnetic sensitive areas. They have a fairly strong magnetic field....

HD feels ya Clint! They already raised the price!! Thanks for this VIDEO!! UPDATE: Just got it for $3.95 on the jungle website.

real nice like

I can watch your videos so much easier than that other famous tool review guy. I don't even remember his name but I remember he was short kind of stocky and really annoying but I blocked him so I wouldn't stop seeing his videos. Your videos are 100 times better and please don't change the style. I can't stand it when RU-vidrs start getting famous they obviously try too hard to get more followers which steers them off course

Ok.. I'm back.. got 2 of them..5.97 in Chatt TN

Bought one and never use it cause I don't wanna lose it.

According to the product page you are putting it on backwards. I think the gnome set you up. 😂

Some stainless is magnetic, some not. And if you are driving stainless deck screws, the last thing you want to use is the impact driver.

Wow

So now you've got a shop full of magnetised bits? 🤣🤣🤣

Milwauk-IA

Tractor supply sells them. They aren't new, I've been using them for years.

Analytics!

These things are almost impossible to find. My Home Depot never has more than 2 in stock at any one time, and if I buy both, it could be weeks before they are replenished. If you look for them online, they are 2 and 3 dollars more than the Depot. Also, turn them around. I was putting them on my bits the way you are, and they would sometimes slide off, and I'm talking about 3 and 6" Phillips bits, plus similar to yours. I started to turn them around so the black part was against the chuck, and no issues. And I don't see any difference in strength compared to their original. DeWalt was selling theirs for a time, but they're never in my store anymore, so not sure what happened to those.

In Europe this darn thing costs €40!🤨

"I always put the back in first because I know it's going to fit and then I just Buoop pop it down in then I can adjust it that way but the screw is going to hold on real tight like' "..the only reason I like doing it from the backside like that....sometimes the tip is a little bit too tight.....you're going to struggle getting it in so just put it in the back like that....."

Probably fits Dewalt because they make the same magnet 😂

I’ve had 2 dewalt ones in my toolbox for years smh.

Not sold in the UK so £34 ($44) is the cheapest Amazon price, then £49 ($62) or $8 and $60 delivery, doh!

Stainless steal in grade 409 is magnetic sir... 304 is not... magnets will stick to SOME stainless grades..

It's not $5 in the UK, more like $20.

I want one! Take my $$$$

If you don't like Makita, Vessel makes these in Red. Same thing.

I think the Klein is better.

ARRRRRGH! THE MG IS BACK!!! 😖🤬🔥💥 So frickin' pesky!!!!!

EVERYONE PLEASE REMEMBER to put it on from the back of the bit. If you have a phillips head it might break the bit!!! If the bits your using might break then your money would be better spent on better bits.

Amazon has them 4.97 free shipping you’ll have it tomorrow

What's the difference? This one: Makita E-01345 Impact XPS™ Mag Boost 4.3 Stars 941 Ratings $4.97 Other one: Makita E-03442 Impact Premier Mag Boost 4.5 Stars 407 Ratings $12.99

I bought 2 of these and both fail in less than a week

Or you can just use a shorter bit

He likes to put it in through the backside.

With out the gnome and evil twin your life would be to easy.

2:50 DO NOT EVER SPIN A SCREW LIKE THIS OR DRIVE IT WITHOUT FULL COVERAGE SAFETY GOGGLES! I was wearing contact lenses and trying to start a 3" drywall screw into a 2x4 when the screw sprang out from under the driver bit and the point punched right through the center of the contact lens and gouged my cornea. You don't know how lucky you are that the screw didn't go perpendicular and fly off. I would bet a longer screw wouldn't stand a chance of hanging on!

Sir I request to you, can you able to give me a drill machine, i will be so thankful for your help. Please sir any drill machine you can. Please sir Thank you

This new one is terrible. Fitment sucks and the end caps popped and lost the magents twice

I had one of the first Makita Impact/Hammer drills back in '08. Came in a kit with the non-bluetooth radio, sawzall and grinder for about 1100 CAD which was a steal at the time...the impact alone was $550 just for the body back then! I only used the hammer feature about 60 times with a 3/32 mostly and a handful of times with 1/4 " concrete bits. The gearing with the selector totally fucked up and would have cost me $280 because the one year warranty had JUST expired. Never again. Plus, the radio doesn't have low battery warnings so it kills the juice completely, which you're not supposed to do with lithiums! Killed four of my batteries to error code on the charger - expensive lesson!

proof that robertson is better than philips.

Why don't you like Makita

I just magnetize the bits and screw drivers the old fashion free way that I have for years. why buy the gimmicks ?

That no Works brooo

Man, I know one thing. Dewalt bits suck.

Its your fault... now all my tools are replaced by makita tools!

Warning to all interested in this. This is a redesign of the original Makita Mag boost that was Awesome! But they discontinued it many years ago and released the XPS bit mag with their XPS bits. And then they quit making it and have now released this redesigned Mag Boost that resembles the original. The problem is its inferior to the original. The original was a fully sealed one piece unit. The new versioun is a 2 piece unit and the black top part pops off and the magnets can fall out. It still works about as good as the original but it is Not as durable. You could probably epoxy the 2 parts together if the black cap pops off or breaks off. But if you had the original and were as excited as I was youll be a bit disapointed. Im down to my last 2 original Mag Boosts and wish Makita would not have discontinued them.

Looks like your making up more problems than you’re solving. And these are easily scraped off if you wear side arms all day.
