Product Information

Pistol-grip cordless screwdrivers resemble drill/drivers, and are pistol-shaped like the SKIL Rechargeable 4V Cordless Screwdriver, as the name suggests. These are easy to hold and control, and are especially comfortable for people who are used to doing a lot of work with power drills. If you need more power than the General Tools 502 without veering into the premium side of precision screwdrivers, then Bressanon Electric Precision Screwdriver is the best option for you. It delivers excellent performance, and it is the best in its price range when it comes to versatility and reliability. There are some compromises to keep the cost down, but it still made our list by having an excellent combination of battery life, decent torque power, and usability. Electric screwdrivers fill the gap between power drills and manual screwdrivers. These handy cordless tools are lightweight, easy to use, and very convenient when you need to drive a lot of screws while assembling furniture, hanging artwork, tightening loose fasteners, or doing similar projects around your home. But Deane Biermeier, a licensed contractor, carpenter, and member of The Spruce’s Home Improvement Editorial Board, cautions, “Remember that an electric screwdriver isn’t a drill. Electric screwdrivers are excellent at reaching into confined spaces and installing or removing screws that require relatively little torque. While there are heavier-duty electric screwdrivers, these tools are generally intended for use on lighter tasks. Heavier use, such as driving long screws into wood without a pilot hole, is a job for a drill, not a screwdriver.”

Is it possible to build a toolkit without screwdrivers? We don’t think so. In the average home, you’ll find a vast array of different screws, all of which will – as sod’s law dictates – require the screwdriver which isn’t the one you’re holding in your hand. This is why it pays to invest in the best screwdriver set you can afford, so you’ll always have the right tool for any screw – be it Posidrive or Phillips, Torx or truss head. Voltage - Most electric screwdrivers have a voltage of 3.6V, but RPM speeds can vary. More powerful drill drivers can have 12V or 18V and significantly more torque.Grip and Comfort - Several products on this list have textured areas to increase grip while using the tool. This feature helps ease the burden on your hands and helps you stay in control of the screwdriver. If you are using your electric precision screwdriver set for an extended period, a comfortable grip will make your experience much more tolerable. Precision screwdriver sets will either have a single screwdriver with swappable bits and shafts or individual screwdrivers with fixed heads. Precision screwdrivers with swappable bits and shafts can complete many different tasks with only a single tool, but they do have more moving parts and are bulkier than individual precision screwdrivers with fixed heads. Bits included Everyday DIY is one thing, but screws are as common as nails in woodworking, and if you’re into building electronics the need for a specific tiny driver with an unusual head is a regular occurrence. Thankfully, you have plenty of choice when it comes to screwdriver sets that are suitable for any eventuality. Is 58 screwdrivers enough? Could you make do with 12? Does each one need a handle, or will a series of interchangeable heads work? Do you need them to be insulated? Or magnetic? What about hex, truss or Torx heads? If we showed you a set of 100 screwdrivers, would you think that was overkill?

Something a little bit different. Wera launched its handle shape in the 1960s, basing it on the contours of the human hand. And despite a few tweaks, it’s stayed basically the same ever since. Human hands, Wera says, haven’t changed in that time either. Spare battery - Found on more expensive models, a spare battery is a good idea if you have large jobs to do, and don’t want to wait for two hours while the battery recharges. What's a torque selector on an electric screwdriver? The Wera model’s handle uses a combination of durable plastic and rubberized materials to improve the gripping power for a highly-ergonomic precision screwdriver. This precision screwdriver includes a good number of bits. We love that it includes onboard bit storage, perfect for portability, organization, and needing only one screwdriver type for many jobs. The rotating end cap easily extends out to reveal slots that store 12 double-sided bits for 24 total bit options.

The screwdriver has a top speed of 180 rpm and delivers up to 3 inch-pounds of torque with the motor on or 26 inch-pounds of torque when used as a manual screwdriver. It comes with a set of 24 precision bits in various sizes and shapes, as well as a magnetizer/demagnetizer to make the tip of the tool magnetic or remove the magnetic charge, a prying tool for opening computers and other electronics, and a USB charging cable. A: No, electric precision screwdrivers generally don't have enough torque to drill holes in most woods. Drilling holes is a job best left for a proper drill with more power. Q: Do I need a drill or an electric precision screwdriver? When choosing an electric precision screwdriver, the most expensive or most powerful don’t necessarily carry the better value. If you only do occasional repairs, then something like the General Tools 502 is an excellent option for you. Sure, fancy features are nice-to-haves, but do you need them?

A halfway house between the Stanley Fat Max set and the cheaper ones, this set from Draper Tools offers a good range of different blades.

We spent time to compare the consistency, versatility, voltage, amp per hour rating, rotation per minute, and everything that you want to know about these screwdrivers. This list of the six best electric precision screwdrivers is the most comprehensive review available to help you get the performance you need and the features you want. The Best Electric Precision Screwdriver Jakemy Adjustable 8-Speed Torque Electric Screwdriver Durability: I tested each of the electric screwdrivers here on several hundred fasteners to help filter out the tools that are going to let you down. This 4-volt cordless screwdriver from Worx is comfortable to hold and maneuver with an inline-grip that reaches into even tight spaces. This electric screwdriver stands out from its counterparts as it boasts three different torque settings. For reversing screws or driving small fasteners, it is recommended to use the lowest setting of 22-inch-pounds. The middle setting is ideal for driving average-sized screws, whereas the high setting of 44-inch-pounds is suitable for driving larger fasteners. The top speed of the drill is 300 rpm; the more tightly you squeeze the trigger, the faster it goes. But the screwing capabilities are only half the story here, because Bosch has cleverly designed a host of attachments that can utilise the motor. These include a supremely practical pair of off-set screwdriver heads that makes accessing awkward areas much easier, as well as some arguably more frivolous options such as a corkscrew, BBQ blower (for fanning the flames) and pepper grinder. It’s a neat solution that reduces the number of motors Bosch needs to manufacture, which can only be a good thing for the planet, and we imagine they’re working on a host of other accessories that will only improve the IXO’s versatility in the future. The body is made with ABS plastic, to keep it lightweight. This material selection also made it possible for the Bressanon Electric Precision Screwdriver to weigh only 200 grams while housing a 1500 mAh lithium-ion battery. To put that into perspective, the Jakemy has an 800 mAh battery and weighs 72 grams more than this screwdriver. Our tests gave us a no-load run that lasted for 296 minutes, which is the longest for all lithium-ion battery-powered screwdrivers on this list.Here we’ll explain all the key technical features you need to consider and suggest some of our favourite screwdriver sets. Read on and you’ll find everything from screwdriver sets for the reluctant DIYer to the most proactive home improvement enthusiast. Quality of accessories: If the electric screwdriver is supplied with screwdriver bits, I want these to be high-quality parts that won't damage fasteners. The average DIYer carrying out tasks around the home, such as assembling furniture, tightening loose screws on doors or cabinets, or hanging artwork or holiday lights, doesn’t need an electric screwdriver with the utmost in power. For these uses, a tool with 3 to 7 volts of power is sufficient. However, if you expect to use the cordless screwdriver for heavier tasks, such as driving screws into harder wood or metal, then you’ll find that a cordless screwdriver with 8 to 15 volts of power is the right choice.
