Abstract: An illuminating nut driver system comprises a hollow torque handle, the proximal end being hollow and having threads on its interior, and the distal end having an opening with a key way therein. A cylindrical nut driver at a first end and a key member at a second end are both integral with a hollow nut driver shaft. The key member is configured for coupling with the key way of the handle for being locked against rotation. A detachable lamp/laser module is removably positionable within the handle from the proximal end with threads on the proximal end coupleable with the handle. A lamp chamber is positioned within the module facing the distal end of the handle. A lamp is detachable mounted within the lamp chamber. A laser generator is positioned adjacent to the lamp at the distal end of the module. The laser generator is mounted so that its radiation is pointed out the hollow driver shaft so it can be used as a pointer. A generally cylindrical end cap has a switch contained therein.

Abstract: A handle that has a distal end with a threaded interior, a proximal end with an opening that has a keyway, and a middle portion. Included is a driver shaft that has a nut driver at a first end and a key member at a second end. The key member couples the keyway of the handle to lock the shaft within. A lamp receptacle with a lamp, is positioned within the handle near the proximal end. A conductive strip is positioned along an interior of the handle and the receptacle. The strip is in contact with the lamp. Lastly, an end cap that has a switch with a switch button is capable of threadable engagement with the threaded interior of the distal end of the handle. The end cap is capable of encapsulating a battery within the handle. The switch has a contact strip in electrical contact with the contact strip within the handle. Electrical contact between the strips allows the battery and the lamp to be in electrical contact for illumination of the lamp.
