Cordless Tools: Switch Driver

Reviewed by:

No more working in your own shadow thanks to the built-in light emitting diode on this cordless screwdriver. A quick snatch on the handle changes it from a pistol grip to a straight grip.

Two speeds (200 and 600 revolutions per minute) and 21 clutch settings provide a level of control for different applications.

It's powered by two 1.5 Lithium Ion batteries, which are lighter, stronger and longer-lasting than their NiCad predecessors.

DB3DL 3.6 Volt Cordless Screwdriver is about $100 (August 2006).

Dimensions: 9-3/4" long; 1/4" chuck.
