hi all,

as similar as looking for opinions for Driller earlier,
i want to know as well feedbacks for powered screwdriver....

bought one brand Maxpro sometime ago
but like no power at all to do screwing job....
to weak even for normal assembling wardrobe job.....

is it enough to have a compact version like this....

just buy branded screw driver such as BOSCH or BLACK & DECKER..

it should be powerful enough... worth the price...

TS,

this is subjective, some people prefer to have dedicated electric screw driver, it is more easier, for me i use my black n decker impact drill, switch it to normal drilling mode, attach the screw driver bit and just make sure u control the On/Off knob properly, not too fast if not u risk ruining the screw heads.... of coz the cheaper unbranded ayam X itik anjing brand will not have variable speed switch / knob, means when u press on, the drill will start spinning at its 100%, this type of power drill cannot be used for screwing things.... the black n decker RM 150++ above range is already able to support the variable speed switch function.....

of coz remember the wall plugs, and buy real good quality screws.... if the screws u use are the cheaper ones, better use back manual hand RM 5 screw driver if not the screw head's gonna kaput very fast with ur powerful electric screw driver.... unless u buy some high end with torque control units, which u can adjust and play with it to avoid excessive force......

u can also find some very long, more than 10 inch screw driver bit, just in case u need to get into somewhere deeper where a shorter screw driver bit can't access into....
