BLACK+DECKER Cordless Screwdriver, Alkaline (BCF601AA)

Lo bueno es que se le puede poner pilas recargable para no contaminar tanto o, de las normales para usarlo al instante y no como otros atornilladores inalámbricos que cuando lo quieres usar está descargado o la batería integrada ya no sirve y solo funciona unos segundos. Me gusta la extensión, es más cómodo. Muy buen producto.

The torque on this device is insufficient. I have tried it on half a dozen different wooden surfaces, and the best it could do was to put the screw three quarters in. In most cases it stops at half way mark. So practically, this is useless to me. I end up using the drill every time.

Powered by standard AA batteries means I can change the batteries easily when they die. This is important for people who don’t use electric screwdrivers often (less than 10 times a year, like me) and worried about the rechargeable battery dying due to ageing. Recommend this electric screwdriver for people who open/close electronic device cases (like PC cases) but shouldn’t be used on woodworks, such as assembling IKEA furniture.

This screwdriver is not ment for high torque applications. With that being said it is very handy for reptative assembly or installation work. I work in the maintenance industry and have had an older version of this tool for 15 years before it wore out from daily use. I was excited to see I could get a new one! If you have to install multiple lock sets or working with long screws, your wrist and hands will thank you at the end of the day. The fact that it takes AA batteries is a bonus for me. If you are careful with how the tool is stored to minimize accidental triggering of power switch, they last for a long time.

Funciona muy bien para todas las ocasiones

I had a rechargeable screwdriver for years. The built-in battery eventually died. I had to throw it away despite the fact that the screwdriver was still in good shape. What a waste. I hate the trend of built-in batteries. This is done on purpose to force people to buy new products.

Also, the screwdriver battery was often in a need of recharge when I needed it so I had to resort to a hand tool or wait until the driver charged up.

I love this one for its replaceable AA batteries . It works very well and it’s powerful enough for my purposes. The only complaint is that I wish there was a separate switch for the light so it can be turned on before you start using it so you can actually see the hole or the screw before you start driving it.

So, this is not an expensive tool. It’s a low price point so don’t expect a ton of power. The torque is pretty underwhelming. In fact, it struggled more than I expected when using it to backout and drive my license plate screws. That was with fresh batteries, too. So, if you want something cheap for very light duty that uses batteries instead of an internal rechargeable battery with a short life cycle (like a previous Black and Decker unit similar to this I owned), then you can’t go wrong for the price. I expect this to outlast the rechargeable unit I threw in the trash after buying this one.
