The right to repair has been granted in Europe and the United States, and Apple has finally begun implementing self-repair programs in some regions.
In Japan, we do not yet know how to proceed due to laws and regulations, but from the perspective of a sustainable society, it may be an era in which gadgets will be maintained and repaired by ourselves.
This time, I tried using the tool set "JIMISET 26", which is useful for such gadget maintenance and electronic work.
We are currently in a great campaign on our sister site machi-ya, so please check it out.
Like a nostalgic gimmick pencil case
Click here for the driver of "JIMI SET 26".
The aluminum alloy body gives you a feeling of durability, and the matte shines astringently.
In addition to the standard plus and minus sizes, a total of 18 types of special bits such as hexagons and Torx screws are available.
It seemed to be enough for maintenance of gadgets, PCs, glasses, etc.
The gimmick that the bit storage part pops out with a button should be easier to take out. For me, it was a fun point to remember the pencil case of an elementary school student.
The case itself is also equipped with a magnet so that the driver and bit will not fall off so easily.
It's also good that you don't have to worry about losing it even if you handle it a little rough.
Detailed functions are saved
The feeling of use of the driver is not bad.
Since the main body is not too thin, it can be held firmly, and since it can be turned even if the butt is fixed, the screws can be attached and detached stably.
I think that the main activities in familiar areas are the maintenance of game controllers and glasses, and battery replacement.
I think that there are few scenes of disassembling a notebook PC these days where parts cannot be replaced at all by integrating the board, but if you are a desktop self-made user, you can use it for parts replacement etc.
What I personally found interesting and helpful was the function of applying magnetism to the tip of the bit.
The screws of gadgets are small, and they are often lost or slipped into the back of the board before they are inserted into the screw holes, aren't they?
It's a function that can reduce such troubles, so it's a simple function, but I think it's a useful function.
There was also a temporary storage space for screws right next to it.
I am grateful for the consideration when handling precision equipment, such as the fact that the lid can be closed tightly.
Mini tools that are convenient to have
Many useful tools other than the screwdriver are included.
First of all, tweezers with a fairly thin tip. It seems to be useful for light work such as plastic models and handicrafts that handle fine parts.
Other SIM card pins and
It was also equipped with a mini spatula that was useful for peeling off the film and separating the housing.
It is important not to throw away things for repairs and to use them for a longer period of time, so first of all, I would like to maintain safely with the correct tools as far as I can.
In addition, disassembling gadgets and smartphones has the disadvantage that self-repair will spread the malfunction and the warranty will expire, so please be sure to take your own risk.
The precision tool set "JIMI SET 26", which is useful for disassembling and repairing gadgets and light work, is currently conducting a great campaign on the crowdfunding site machi-ya.
At the time of writing, it was possible to order from 4,080 yen (tax and shipping included), which is 18% off the general selling price.
There are some features that I couldn't introduce, so if you are interested, please check the details from the link below!
