Multitool maker Logical Carry is back on Kickstarter with an upgraded version of its Ti-Mag titanium ratcheting screwdriver. The new V2 model still holds five bits magnetically, but features a conveniently folding design and other improvements.
The original Ti-Mag, which was successfully crowdfunded last year, can store five quarter-inch bits in its “magazine,” with each bit held in place by a separate magnet. Depending on what kind of screwdriving you want to do, you can place your chosen bit in a ratcheting driver on the side of the tool (for a T-handle-style grip) or a non-ratcheting driver on the end of the tool (for a regular grip).
There’s also an extended bit driver for getting into tight spaces, which is stored on one side of the Ti-Mag via another magnet. The package is rounded out by a pry bar on the non-driver end of the tool.
The Ti-Mag V2 retains all of these features, although one side of the tool can now be folded 180 degrees in either direction.
This function serves two purposes.

First, it provides much easier access to the five included bits, as the non-magnetic side of the magazine can simply be folded back. On the original model, the bits had to be pulled through holes in the side of the magazine.
Second, the V2’s folded-back side sits directly behind the ratchet bit hole, preventing inserted bits from popping out the back – apparently a problem with the original model. And because the side can be folded back in either direction (left or right), it can be flipped over for use in either a clockwise or counterclockwise ratchet.
Other improvements include a narrower pry bar for access in tight spaces, a scratch-resistant coating, and full titanium construction (the original has a softer bronze plate around the ratcheting bit hole). That said, like the original, there is is a cheaper aluminum model of the V2. It now has a more durable DLC (diamond-like carbon) black coating.

Assuming the Ti-Mag V2 goes into production, a pledge of $69 will get you a Grade 5 titanium unit, with $75 getting you one in aluminum—planned retail prices are $109 and $89, respectively. Both come with five bits: a 5.5mm slotted; Phillips PH0, PH1, PH2; and a Torx T6. Other third-party quarter-inch bit types are also compatible.
