My 20 y/o B&D electric screwdriver has finally given up the ghost. The battery
was starting to fail to hold charge, and then at the weekend, the switch broke,
so although I can drive screws in with it, I can't take them out!
So ... I need a replacement.
Any recommendations?
What's this Bosch 10.8V Li-ion likely to be like?
I've got the baby Bosch 3.6V Li-ion screwdriver:

Although it's not in the same power class as what you are looking for,
I was quite happy with it until yesterday when the forward/reverse
switch started playing up (intermittant contact). I've only had it a
month so this does not speak well for design quality. We used it to
screw chipbard floor panels down; it did about 200 screws before
failing.
