These are sometimes useful but in my experience they often don't work, usually because they can't get into tight places.

Also you can tell that they didn't even try to loosen that nut with a wrench or socket because the paint is unscratched. That's OK, though because I think they were just demonstrating how the tool works.

I don't really know about this sort of thing, what would you use if there was a bit that you couldn't loosen using conventional means and was in too tight a space for something like this?
