Hi Jim.I'm not sure what is "standard hex bits"..., butI have 2 other sets of hex bits (from my old screwdrivers) and all of them has the same size and fits exact to this model too.Roman.

Any standard bit will work in this. It comes with a special tool to take bits on and off.

Only bits of the exact same shape & size will fit. The handle doesn't adjust to grab the bits, they just slide in & very lightly snap in place. No idea if the bit base size is standard or not.

No, only hex bits. There are some nice sets around so that you can quickly and easily drill pilot holes and the like, but that's the limit.

I used mine on an xp home edition witn no problems and used it with 7 64 bit also - this is the new chip set not the 2303 one. whould work on anything.

It worked for me on both 32bit and 64 bit, but let me go into a little detail. The included software is *very* basic. It is really just there to test your set up and do basic card writing, like sequential serial number and so on. This is no different than the software that comes with all the units. What is important is that it uses an industry standard protocol and can interface with POS systems and so on. If you have a unique requirement, the standard protocol will allow any competent programmer to interface with the unit and read/write cards to your specifications.

No, I am not aware of being able to use these with round bits...only the lock-in hex style bits.

No. This is not the security bit set, this set just has regular Torx bits with no hole. Wiha does make security bit sets in this form factor, but that set is part number 79490.

I took pictures of the inside of my box hoping to be able to send you those but without your email address I'm unable to do that; this product is listed as a "drill/driver" set, and from what I can deduce by looking at everthing, there aren't any "hex" bits (there are some bits that "look" sort of like hex bits but I'm not certain. You may need to contact DeWalt or go to a hardware store that carries this item and look at it personally.

Technically yes, drill bits with hex ends are available, that's all you can use. The speed however of the driver is pretty slow for drilling

i don't really understand the question...It works fine...the bits strip easy so be careful

I looked at mines again. (I have 2) This one you turn the purple part to the left till it clicks. Pull the bit out, insert the one you want to use and turn it to the right till it clicks. Sorry for the mixup.

If you don't see anywhere to put the smaller bits then that model just doesn't have the ability to use them. I have the TI Charge which can with a single small bit piece that holds them.

It is very simple, all you need is to take the bit that is in use and push the bit you want to use forwardPicquic site has an animation that explains the process:http://www.picquic.com/Firehawktech is another great site to buy, they also sell in Amazon. And you can choose colors:http://www.firehawktech.com/PQ_models.html

No, they are definitely NOT hex shank bits. They must be put in a Jacobs chuck. The larger bits have three flats on the shank to inhibit slippage in the chuck, but these are not designed for use in a ¼", "snap in" hex chuck.

I don't own this now but all standard screwdriver bits have a 1/4" hex shaft & will fit. Though the quick mechanical locking type shaft bit with the deep radiused approximately 3/16" wide groove, starting about 1/4" from the insertion end, aren't stable in this type of short insertion magnetic bit holder.

This accessory accepts hex bits and has a hex shank. As such, it requires hex shank drill bits (not ordinary cylinder shaped drill bits. However, just about any drill can accept this accessory.
