Default Electric screwdriver

Which ones are any good? I'm getting lazy.

I'd like:

Adjustable torque
Lipo - or other Lixxx battery


Cheers,

G

The Bosch IXO (They're on IXO 4 now)

Love mine, does the job perfectly. I've got the IXO 3.

Christmas is here as well, so no doubt B&Q, Homebase etc will be doing deals on them soon...

I paid £22 for mine eventually because of the Sales

Another thumbs up for the IXO.
I've got an IXO 3 - for the money, they're tough to beat but adjustable torque limit / ratchet would make it perfect.

But for the money - hard to go wrong...

Hitachi DB3DL is the one to get in my opinion - came with two Lithium batteries and has been brilliant. I know lots of people who have this and paid less than £40!

The handle rotates, twenty odd torque settings, carry case, easy to use - cannot recommend enough!

Got the Hitachi for less than £40, seems nice.

Now I need some allen driver tips for it? Recommendations?

Another EDS recommendation here.

Really Good stuff from them. I'm even changing my normal Tips to theirs when my others wear out.

I'm using EDS' set of tips - work really well, are tough and not too pricy.
