Product Information

The speed of a cordless screwdriver is measured in revolutions-per-minute of the bit. While there are heavy-duty electric screwdrivers with speeds of up to 600 rpm, the average DIYer doesn’t require a speed anywhere close to that. Generally, for typical home uses, a tool with speeds of 130 to 200 rpm is more than sufficient. Some higher–end electric screwdrivers have variable speed settings, allowing you to adjust the speed more precisely, but most cordless screwdrivers have only a single speed setting, and a few have high/low speed options. Regarding materials, the Wera Kraftform Precision Screwdriver Set, the iFixit Pro Tech Toolkit, and the Xiaomi Electric Precision Screwdriver all have a wow factor when opening the box and using the screwdriver for the first time. But this feeling is for different reasons. We spent time to compare the consistency, versatility, voltage, amp per hour rating, rotation per minute, and everything that you want to know about these screwdrivers. This list of the six best electric precision screwdrivers is the most comprehensive review available to help you get the performance you need and the features you want. The Best Electric Precision Screwdriver Jakemy Adjustable 8-Speed Torque Electric Screwdriver

The Jakemy Electric Precision Screwdriver is the future of electronics repair. It is the best out of all the screwdrivers that we have tested. Its sleek design, unmatched performance, versatility, and usability set the benchmark for what an electric precision screwdriver should be. When working in tight spaces or working with delicate electronics, a drill won’t cut it. Electric screwdrivers are great but can still be bulky and aren’t suitable for electronics. Electric precision screwdrivers are a must-have for anyone who is looking for a tool that can make their life easier. Pistol-grip cordless screwdrivers resemble drill/drivers, and are pistol-shaped like the SKIL Rechargeable 4V Cordless Screwdriver, as the name suggests. These are easy to hold and control, and are especially comfortable for people who are used to doing a lot of work with power drills.Below is a brief guide to the common types of screws you’ll encounter with specific repairs. This way, you can buy the right precision screwdriver set for your needed tasks.

Batteries – Most electric precision screwdrivers are powered by lithium-ion batteries, while budget screwdrivers often use AAA Alkaline batteries. Lithium-ion batteries are the ones that you can recharge via micro USB, and they give better long-term value. The list included small fixes and tightening jobs, assistance with installing mounting hardware for paintings onto softwood stretcher bars, and much more. Adjustable-grip cordless screwdrivers, like the Makita DF001DW 3.6V Lithium-Ion Screwdriver Kit, give you the best of both worlds: You can rotate the handle into a pistol configuration, an inline configuration, or somewhere in between. This makes the tool very versatile for the widest range of projects. This product features a dual-mode that allows you to switch from electric to manual when you need higher torque power. The gears shutdown as soon as you switch to manual mode, which reduces the motor’s deterioration rate. The IFU Electric Precision Screwdriver has a no-load output of 200 RPM, an electric torque of 0.2N.m, and a manual torque of three N.m. There’s also an eight-piece precision screwdriver set that includes four Torx drivers, perfect for taking laptops apart, and even a pair of offset screwdrivers, with a different bit at each end, for those really awkward spots.But you won’t get everything with the Megepro 25-In-1 Precision Screwdriver. Some other models include swappable shafts that can extend or are flexible. The Megapro model doesn’t include either feature. Here we’ll explain all the key technical features you need to consider and suggest some of our favourite screwdriver sets. Read on and you’ll find everything from screwdriver sets for the reluctant DIYer to the most proactive home improvement enthusiast. LED lights - A hand extra to have, especially as assembling cupboards and wardrobes involves getting into lots of tight dark corners. Some also have built-in flashlights. The Wera model’s handle uses a combination of durable plastic and rubberized materials to improve the gripping power for a highly-ergonomic precision screwdriver. It’s worth noting that metric bits have almost completely replaced Imperial-sized ones, but screws put in 50 years ago haven’t heard about this. Still, it’s possible to use a driver that’s slightly too small to loosen a screw, so it’s not worth worrying about having every possible size in your collection. A choice of the most common sizes, in both flathead and Phillips (cross-shaped) will do for most day-to-day jobs.

A: No, electric precision screwdrivers generally don't have enough torque to drill holes in most woods. Drilling holes is a job best left for a proper drill with more power. Q: Do I need a drill or an electric precision screwdriver? Rotation per Minute (RPM)– The posted RPM is the no-load output of an electric precision screwdriver. It refers to how long it takes to tighten or loosen a screw. A no-load output of 100 RPM is similar to the speed of a manual screwdriver when used on electronics repair. Most screwdrivers have an RPM of 100 to 300, and the RPM often determines the price. A halfway house between the Stanley Fat Max set and the cheaper ones, this set from Draper Tools offers a good range of different blades.

Shop GQ's edit of the best electric screwdrivers…

Is it possible to build a toolkit without screwdrivers? We don’t think so. In the average home, you’ll find a vast array of different screws, all of which will – as sod’s law dictates – require the screwdriver which isn’t the one you’re holding in your hand. This is why it pays to invest in the best screwdriver set you can afford, so you’ll always have the right tool for any screw – be it Posidrive or Phillips, Torx or truss head.

What’s also different about the Wera Kraftform Precision Screwdriver Set is that 12 different screwdrivers are included, versus all-in-ones with a single tool with swappable shafts and bits. While you will need to carry more tools to complete various tasks, the upside is that these precision screwdrivers are less bulky and have fewer moving parts.Importantly, you’ll get 56 bits, including the most common sizes and types, and various smartphone and electronics bits. The extendable shaft can also be swapped out for a flexible shaft if you need to drive screws in tight corners. Something a little bit different. Wera launched its handle shape in the 1960s, basing it on the contours of the human hand. And despite a few tweaks, it’s stayed basically the same ever since. Human hands, Wera says, haven’t changed in that time either. Torque - In the case of this guide, torque is the turning force delivered by a cordless precision screwdriver. This force is measured as Newton Meters, referred to as Nm for the rest of the text. For tasks like inserting and removing small screws, less torque is required. For heavier duty jobs, you will need more torque. Some products offer adjustable torque settings so you can use the appropriate tightening force. Durability: I tested each of the electric screwdrivers here on several hundred fasteners to help filter out the tools that are going to let you down. This 4-volt cordless screwdriver from Worx is comfortable to hold and maneuver with an inline-grip that reaches into even tight spaces. This electric screwdriver stands out from its counterparts as it boasts three different torque settings. For reversing screws or driving small fasteners, it is recommended to use the lowest setting of 22-inch-pounds. The middle setting is ideal for driving average-sized screws, whereas the high setting of 44-inch-pounds is suitable for driving larger fasteners. The top speed of the drill is 300 rpm; the more tightly you squeeze the trigger, the faster it goes.
