Amazon.com Product Description
Tired of that battery-powered screwdriver being dead when you need it most? Here’s an alternative. Surprisingly powerful and stunningly lightweight, Black & Decker’s 3.6-Volt Cordless Screwdriver features the best energy-to-weight ratio and longest-lasting charge available. Just the right weight and style for assembling furniture, hanging curtains, and mounting light fixtures, this tool is powered by a lithium-ion battery that holds a charge up to 18 months longer than comparable nickel-cadmium-powered drivers.

A very forgiving power screwdriver for those who hate cords but frequently forget to recharge, the lithium-ion battery also helps this tool deliver 20 percent more power than Ni-Cad tools. When it is time for a recharge, a fixed, internal battery lets you just drop the whole tool into the included charging base, rather than detaching it from the tool and attaching it to the charger, a process that sometimes takes longer than driving the darn screw. Half the size of most screwdrivers in its class, this tool is great for working in tight quarters and around tough corners.

Powerful and durable enough for years of household use, the tool’s pistol grip makes overhead driving a much more comfortable task than you’ll experience with in-line drivers that require an uncomfortably bent elbow that shortens reach. And, at just 2.6 pounds, there’s no more dying strain to finish extended overhead driving tasks. Not that there’ll be such a thing as extended applications. This driver spins screws at 180 rotations per minute and churns out 48-inch pounds of torque, easily rivaling most drill/drivers pound for pound, and definitely providing a welcome rest for the wrist. Best of all, Black and Decker’s Grab-N-Go charger mounts to walls for easy access. The purchase is covered by a 2-year manufacturer warranty. --Brian Olson

Customer Reviews

Usefull, but could be improved!
This is a nice little tool that you can keep in a kitchen drawer or your car for a pretty long time and not worry about it loosing its charge. I really like the small compact size. It also has a decent accessory set with it.

Here is where I think it needs improvement:

*No variable control (on or off only)
*The speed is pretty slow
*No clutch which makes it difficult tighten any screw on with any accuracy w/o taking out another manual screw driver to finish it off.
*not enough power to tackle even a 1-1/4 wood screw into a 2x*
* You cant lock the shaft (I would want this to finish tightening a screw that this unit doesnt have enough power for)

I realize this tool is not designed to replace a larger cordless drill and this does have many uses, but with todays technology B&D can do better.

This is one cool cordless tool!
At $29.99, this is a cool deal! I love mine. It is always ready to go....and I don't have to always drag out the larger cordless drill. The accessories that came with it are great too. I also bought a grinder from Ace to fit on it so I can sharpen my garden tools with it. I use mine a lot, but to be honest I have not tried to put 3" screws in hardwood. I would not trade mine in, it fits a niche in my tool cabinet and I am glad I have it.

powerful, long lasting battery, more bits than you'll ever need
handy screwdriver, powerfull enough to drill long screws into hard wood. Pistol grip handle means it's short so it can fit in tight spaces. Battery holds a charge for a long time (haven't had to recharge it yet (installed a kitchen, and 6 sets of blinds).
