Universal bit kit vs manta?

I already have the pro kit but I was wondering which one has the most used ones? As far as I looked it looked like the universal bit kit had the same as the manta and even more, am I wrong?

Is this a good question?

It’s not a perfect Venn Diagram. Most notably, the Manta Driver Kit doesn’t have any of the larger Nut Drivers that the UBK has. Other than that, the UBK has the Flathead 1.3 mm, Hex 1/16”, Hex Security 3/32”,Hex Security 5/64”, Hex Security 7/64”, Torx T6 and T7 (not security) and the Manta Driver kit does not.

However the Manta Driver kit does have the iPhone Standoff Bit, Triangle 2.2 mm, and Triangle 2.6 mm that the UBK does not.

When we chose the bits for the Manta Driver Kit, it was really a pairing down of the least-necessary, and uncommonly used bits. I think if you bought the Manta, you would not miss any of the other bits that are in the UBK.

Thanks for the info!

What about the Manta compared to the PTT? The Manta seems to be the better buy, but if someone is primarily operating on US Android and Apple phones, which would be better suited?

Hey there!

The UBK has 128 bits, the Manta has a bit fewer at 112 bits. With the Manta, we selected the most common and most useful bits we have to offer and placed them in our signature laser-cut foam case. The UBK comes in a larger oak wood case that’s more of a collector’s item.

Interesting.. Does the UBK includes all the ones the Manta has? Or is there quite a few different ones?
