How do I remove stripped pentalobe screws?

Before you go posting links to articles and videos I have to say I’ve tried superglue, rubber band and duct tape method! One screw is halfway out so I tried Gently using pliers and did not work either. I’m guessing the tool kit I bought from amazon is what did this. The top of the screws are stripped. There’s no grip left because I’m assuming this new pentalobe screwdriver wore it away. Any help is appreciated please just don’t say what I’ve already tried or post links if all it says are the methods I’ve used. I need a new method because nothing is working. Thank you

if you still have this issue you could try tapping a slightly oversized pentalobe or torx into the screws with a small hammer, it works to pull stripped allen screws sometimes

Sharpen your pentalope screwdriver first. Apply a bit of alcohol to the stripped screw. Put plastic on top of the screw the try to unscrew

on amazon (and elsewhere) there are small ez-out bits which are left hand bits and taps which may work. they come in a pack of 4-5 various sizes. (down to 2 mm). Its a two step method. First is to drill a very small hole in the head of the screw and then use the left hand ez-out to extract the offending screw. I would use a fair amount of downward pressure on the ez-out which is counter intuitive to get the screw to come out towards the force.... I have not used them for such a small screw but they work well for 1/4" screws and larger. You will have to be really careful not to go too deep with the drill but deep enough to have the ez-out to catch the edges of the hole. good luck.
