This little tool is one of the best buys i have made for my tool kit. I bought it about a year ago and it gets more use than maybe any other tool.
It comes in a great container which is (unlike so many others) is so neat and tidy that it is still being used today rather than just chucking the device and its charger in my tool kit. The container comes in three parts, metal top and bottom and a plastic base which acts as the charger and holder for spare bits. The driver just sits in the cradle and charges while its plugged in.
Charging will usually take a couple of hours or maybe a little longer if allowed to run flat.
For a small driver it has remarkable torque. It's not the fastest device on the block but it does the job admirably. Plus, it is extremely comfortable to hold. The gun type grip means you can hold it comfortably at most angles.
Changing the rotation is just a thumb movement so you don't need a second hand or even need to release the grip. Whether its tightening or loosening is shown with a little green led which shows which direction the driver is turning (in or out). This I found very useful. Something which would have been useful on larger drills.
It also has this incredibly useful work light under the bit. This shines a concentrated light on the spot where you are pointing the driver meaning you can see those pesky screw heads even in the darkest cupboards or engine bays.
It feels like it will run forever which is useful because I have a million more jobs for it! Superb bit (pun intended) of kit!
