Pro Tech Screwdriver set in JIS?

I was wondering if iFixit offered a Pro Tech Screwdriver set in JIS.

I am debating just getting the 5 piece standard phillips set, because JIS and phillips are so similar, but it couldn't hurt to ask :D

Thanks!

Happy new years everybody :D

My Pro Tech Toolkit came with

PH2, PH1, PH0, PH00, PH000

and

J000, J00, J0, J1

I'm guessing JIS is now J.

I don't see the difference between JIS or PH either though.

The pro tech took lit does include that. I'm looking for JIS000 JIS00, JIS0 and JIS1 screw drivers with ~2in long shafts. Sometimes there's a tiny screw embedded into a hole that is a an inch or more embedded into a part, and I can't reach it with the multi-driver. Most of my long screwdriver sets are PH1 and PH2.

There is a very small difference between JIS and Phillips, mentioned here:

It seems that not many companies are manufacturing true JIS screw drivers any more. Camera companies still use JIS screws though.

They do have a different but not much. I needed these on a striped Phillips screw on my iPod Nano.
