Plug spinners will work as long as you use them correctly. I have the Rytan RY57 plug spinner and it spins everything i've tried so far. The Rytan RY57 plug spinner works by turning the tip 180 degrees and then pushing a trigger to release it. As a result of the spinner having a spring, the tip fligs back 180 degrees which turns the plug to the other side without having the pins set. Are plug spinners worth getting? It depends. Do YOU think you will need it? if so get one. If you don't think you need it don't get one.

i loved the one i used, not a RY57, more compact was like a film canister with a knob and a button at one end, and a blasde at the other end.. worked liek a champ.. ive been planning on geting one since then because sometimes its just more easy to pick the wrong way..
