Whether you're a professional modder, a true water-cooling enthusiast, or a first-time builder, this bit kit has exactly what you need to disassemble and reassemble your liquid cooling parts. But not just that, also smartphones, game consoles, wearables, laptops, desktops, tablets, small appliances, and other devices.

Asking Wiha about this product, they don't acknowledge it... so it means it is counterfeit.
Also I've seen the Xiaomi kit , the bits chop off their ends pretty fast... terrible quality.
I also have this weird label on the back:
P.S. I found it.

www.ifixit.com/Store/Tools/Pro-Tech-Toolkit/IF145-307
That iFixit set is ~70EUR
Spot the difference.
Dime a dozen at home depot/.... no aluminum case or ek logo though.
I personally have not used any of these tips on a water loop "except one small hex tip for magnitude cpu water block" funny ek is selling this kit guess money is money and a sucker is born every minute lol
Spot the difference.

Just skip an overpriced $70 kit with all the wonderful things you don't need or already have... or buy a decent $15-20 practical kit instead. Throw the rest to Louis Rossmann and his cat.
I fix electronics for living, and all these years later I still can't justify spending $70 on screwdrivers and disposables. I have Wiha in a backpack on-the-go (just to impress my clients and friends with fancy clicky case), and el-cheapo $10 chinese precision kit with two broken handles mended by epoxy and electrical tape in my workshop (just to look tough and serious when I have rare unexpected visitors). Bought that one almost 10 years ago and all bits are still like new. Also got a decent 5-piece set of ESD-safe tweezers for $10 many moons ago and I don't think I'll ever need more(I only use 1 out of 5 on a daily basis). For dirty work I use my grandpa's soviet tweezers which are unkillable and made of damage-resistant unobtanium... will be passed onto my grandchildren someday. A stainless steel spatula kit cost me less than $4. Guitar picks - $5 for a 50-pack. Plastic prying tools - free with random orders of smartphone parts, which creates a big problem of how to get rid of them.
My opinion may be a bit slanted, but from my own experience, I would rather spend a little more for stuff that isn't made in China whenever possible if it means greater dependability/durability.
If you don't own a tool kit, the EK one could be a nice starter kit for people just as the Xiaomi one could be. There is a difference in the number of bits between the two (24 vs. 48 bits), which to me makes the EK a bit more attractive IMHO.
By buying from ifixit you are getting a toolkit and also supporting a company that is supporting and campaigning a good cause although it might not be a charitable one such as curing poverty etc etc.
lol too freaking true forgot all about harbor freight
