Coin Slot Battery Cap Tool

All Fix-It-Sticks products are top of the line. They are high quality, well constructed and perform flawlessly. I'd highly recommend any Fix-It-Sticks product. Some folks might complain about the cost, just remember you buy quality the first time actually saves you time and money because you are not having to replace inferior products or tools. Additional, Fix-It-Sticks customer service is top of the line too, they are the standard other companies should strive to attain.

I was thrilled to discover this little coin bit. I have an Archer Components electronic shifter on several of my bikes. I tried to remember to carry a penny or keep one in my tool kit but it was always getting misplaced. This is perfect and the Fix It Stix handle is way easier that spinning a penny. I love this. Here is a new tool idea for you. After removing the battery cover I have another challenge of not being able to pull the batteries out of the device. The device is mounted on the rear chain stays at about a 45 degree angle. A magnet is the perfect tool for lifting the two batteries out the well they are in. A pocket telescoping antenna type of magnet works but that's another complete tool that I don't want to have to carry on my bike. I scoured the internet looking for a 1/4" hex bit magnet and came up empty. I had taken a short length of wooden dowel rod and super glued a neodymium magnet on the end but it didn't hold for long. I have since cut the end off of a 1/4" hex to 1/4" square bit adapter and glued a neodymium magnet to it. I also applied electrical heat shrink tubing around the joint. I don't know if this will last. I think a tool company could offer this type of bit which would turn any bit holder into a magnetic retrieval tool. I would keep several of these around in all of my EDC kits.

No more gouging the battery cap with a coin or screwdriver now that I have this bit.
