Power screwdriver recommendation?
My trusty B&D driver doesn't hold charge anymore, and needs replacing
(although I haven't yet investigated options as to getting the battery replaced). Can anyone recommend a replacement? Similar questions have been asked before, but previous threads seem to soon diverge into discussing the merits of cordless drill/driver combinations. I'm looking for a *light* driver with torque control. Although this will be used for driving into wood, etc, more often than not it'll be used around the house. I lose track of the number of times that I've been using this fully stretched or in tight corners, and so for this reason I *don't* want a combination drill/driver - just a standard straight or angled driver. Given that this tool has been by far the most useful tool I've ever bought, I'm prepared to spend to get the right replacement. Previous threads have mentioned the Matabo at (gulp) ~£70. Does this have variable speed (trigger sensitive I presume)? Variable speed is the only thing I miss on my existing driver. Is it possible to get this feature on a standard driver? Many thanks in advance for any response, Mike. -- Dr. Michael Atkinson, GeoQuest Simulation Software Development Note that email address in the headers is cleared monthly and NOT read.
