54 bit driver kit, driver not magnetized :(

Just bought one of these awesome kits and had to wait two weeks to get it (It's a fact of life for buying stuff from the states here in Australia)

Just tried out the driver to find out it wasn't actually magnetised :(

Is there anything I can do to fix that?

There is a quick and cheap solution for you if you like. I bought one myself not too long ago and love the ease of magnetizing and demagnetizing tools manually which is what the tool is actually called, a magnetizer/demagnetizer and its as simple as dragging the tool through the device. Ifixit happens to sell it as well! http://www.ifixit.com/Store/Tools/Magnet...

Forgot to mention, it's also still safe to use on electronics!

Our magnetizer/demagnetizer is absolutely a great product. However, the 54 bit driver kit should already be magnetized.
