Found on Clam site a replacement but it says it won’t fit first generation clam plates, only new ones. Mines two years old...not sure what generation that it is?

I believe the real solution is not to spend the money on a Clam plate, extra gear box etc. When I decided to go from my Ion to a drill it was to redude weight and also Bulk, with the plate it is just as bulky as my Ion was. So many people have problems with the plate also, I see them wrapped in tape, rope, string etc. All I have is the Milwaukee drill with the Cabellas e-drill...period. Under 10 lbs, works great, and 1/2 the size!
Correct, a rounded bit won’t work...that’s my problem. It started off hex shaped but got spun round. After an initial contact it has been suggested that it was “operator” error and I will have to order a new one. Clam will not be replacing...without a fee or shipping. I’ll need to really make sure the chuck is on correct and tight (I thought that was obvious...I’ve used drills and bits before). I’m wondering if I could almost use a torque wrench attachment somehow to really make sure it’s grabbing the bit correctly. Any thoughts. I’m just worried it’ll make the drill go too high up and the Clam trigger will miss the drill trigger.
Cool video. Might look to get a “quick chuck”. I will probably mark my drill as well so I know where those teeth retract.
