Fair enough. I agree it's probably not an issue for most, my last set was untouched and didn't need anything, but this one's had some bodgery so who knows what has been done to it and whether screwdriver Pete had a go.

Main reason I was eyeing a VA62 was for its other features - ring tests and drive waveforms, which seem like they'd be useful in troubleshooting. There's a NIB one on ebay currently for $15 (though shipping on those is a bear!)

Since I don't have signs of needing it for any of that yet I don't think I'll drop the $60+ on it, but if I get one locally for a good price I might still grab it for those features.

... also I'm going to start using the phrase "extreme screwdriver drift" now. Epic.
