Love this thing

Why did you pick this product vs others?:An electrician friend came over to do some work and had one of these. It was so easy to use and so handy that I had to have one. I’ve used it a number of times since and not just for electrical work. It doesn’t have the torque of a larger drill, but it’s easy to use and fits in really tight spaces.

I like using this screw driver. It is fun to use. It is less fatigue to use and in particular if you have many screws to turn. I used it to build a PC case (the one that you need to practically build the entire PC) and this was a joy to use. I believe for those who are in any hobby that needs to build stuff (e.g., R/C helicopter or FPV drones), they might enjoy using this driver than other electric screw drivers. You do not need to move figures to press for turn or un-turn screws. You just need to twitch your wrist for the direction to turn screw in or out. However, it needs to get use to though but once you get a hang of it then the fun begins. You can also control how fast or slow turn is by the the amount of you twitch your wrist and again it is a habit that you need to get use to.You can use it the same way as regular non electric driver as well by not pressing on the button or lock it. This is useful when the torque of the driver isn't enough to turn or unturn screws or to get more precise at first.I've found that most of general house hold tasks in side of house, this screw drivers nearly meets all situations so far. I used it to put up window blinds, putting together baby crib, replaces concealed cabinet hinges etc. and this is great or sufficient except one case that I ran into so far. I will mention about it in the drawback point in a little later.Its construction is great - strong. Held well in my hand (not too big hand) still. I do not feel it is too heavy to give you tiresome to hold. The LED light at the front is handy. It purrs to let you know it is ready.Battery charging is quick.The reasons that a star is discounted are:1. It would be nice to have more torque. I just ran into a case where it could not turn a screws that held a cabinet door to the frame. This is one cabinet that had this issue as for some reason, the original screws were tighten quite tight. I had to turn them by hand using this driver without pressing the activation/power button. It worked fine in manual mode.2. There is a slider to lock the activation button from being activated or turned on the screw. It is just part of the activation button that extends further for you to slide in or out to lock or unlock the activation button. This is a good idea and convenient to find. It works great for what it is designed for. I just wish that it can be in a place or perhaps another button to stop activation while you hand hold (full grab) so that you can go into manual mode (no-electric) while turning tough screws without stopping to slide this button.3. The charger works fine and it charge quickly. However, the status light has one color - red. It signals stage of charging and battery conditions via blinking pattern. That is fine but I would preferred when battery is fully charged, the light should be green. It is a common to use green for indicating fully charged batteries. Look around for other devices that have battery charging light - Amazon Kindle, Apple Mac etc. ), they use green light to indicate fully charged batteries. It would be nice if the charger to do the same.Note:This is a good driver to have around house. However, I would get the version of this driver that has torque limit and two position handle than this one especially if you work for small items or do not want to over tighten or stripping screw heads.

This tool is a must. Bought them for both of my son's also.

So this thing does exactly what I wanted to do, allow me to quickly and securely tighten screws on my remote control vehicles. I have an Xmaxx 8S and I’m always snapping the front and back bumper supports from bad landings, so I have to frequently change them out. They are 2.5 mm screw heads. Doing them all by hand was extremely time consuming and annoying and my tiny little precision electric driver is nowhere near powerful enough. That’s just for precision electronic screws.With this, I just put in a 2.5 mm MIP ball head into the quarter inch chuck and can instantly pull out/put in screws with such ease and control. Save me a lot of time and it’s really neat.I’m looking forward to trying to use it for a few other things, I have some pictures and stuff that I have to hang on walls in my home and I’m going to try it out for that. I’ve not put the power to the test yet, but it seems pretty strong.My only complaint would be that I thought it would have the optional form switching feature where you can at, rotate it to a pistol. Even the instruction manual that came with it shows how it can be switched over by pressing a release button, I guess that’s on another model variant.
