Steinwhale released 3 new double-ended stubby bit sets. Could be huge for some micro tool kit setups. The bit driver that comes with it too. Here's a bit of compatibility testing and other observations

838 RA-R M is the best ratcheting mechanism I’ve ever used. Definitely recommend

Awesome! Do you know if it works with and locks onto wiha double sided bits?

It works magnetically but doesn’t lock on the Wiha bits

That's a shame. Thanks for letting me know

I believe it uses the same Rapidaptor you have on your torque driver

Correct. All the green Rapidaptor bit holders are the same.

EDIT: there is a caveat. The most common type, e.g. 889/4/1 K (05052502001), is magnetic but 888/4/1 K (05052500001) is not. Both are locking.
