    #1, I know EXACTLY how you feel about this tool. I feel the same way about my Milwaukee M4 1/4" Hex Screwdriver, and I own a LOT of tools as well. #2, It's very nice of you to take the trouble to post these videos, and over and above to post this second video for the sake of the idiots who apparently can't appreciate this bargain marvel. #3, can't wait to get my hands on one! Damn things are very hard to acquire at this point in time, and price has gone up quite a bit since you purchased yours. Never the less, I will soon own at least one. Thanks for sharing your experience with it.

    This tool definitely has its place in between screwgun and screwdriver. I paid $74 with 1 battery and charger. Great for hanging blinds, fixtures, pictures and taking apart things with lots of screws. It is not a necessity, but most things aren’t.

    Looking to get one of these for my wife because she keeps buying shit from Wayfair. I'm looking at this test to 'drive a screw into a 2x4' thinking, "What kind of person is trying to drive screws with any screwdriver, let alone a mechanical one?" Get a drill you bums.
    This really helped though. Your bit with the electrical plate was great because I was wondering if upgrading to the version with the clutch and rotating handle may be worth it and I think it might.

  • @rlachermeier
    @rlachermeier Před 3 lety

    I decided on this one when I went to buy another Black & Decker gyro screwdriver. I must have found my original one on sale because there is no way I would have spent over $100 for the gyro. The nice thing about this one is it's 8 volts versus 4 volts for the gyro. Another good use for this type of screwdriver is when you have a bolt where the nut has been loosened but it has a lot of threads.

    Just picked up the screw driver on amazon and the kit that comes with it is good but not magnetic, I followed the link and searched for it. I also bough this kit also I had a old Eastvolt 4V Cordless Mini Electric Screwdriver, 1500mAh USB Rechargeable Battery the motor broke up Sunday while installing my new led lights that was a bummer. hopefully Dewalt screwdriver will last many years to come. im investing in the brand for DIY home repairs and fixes but of course will buy the best models. thanks for this information. I prefer the magnetic kits but the magnets are not as strong as I thought.

  • @blackrichard1029
    @blackrichard1029 Před 7 měsíci

    Sadly, it didn't answer my question: Why is it intermittent? :)
    I have the same model (DCF682) and it started flaking out after not much use but after the warranty. Depending on the angle, or shaking, or rotation, or something, it will work or it won't. A wonderful tool when it does work! It's very helpful to use when you need to be careful not to overtighten but don't want to spend ages tightening the screw until that point.
    Oh, how did you get the "N1" designation on the end? That doesn't show on mine (as it also does not show on yours that I can tell when I pause the video).

  • @Hellseeker1
    @Hellseeker1 Před 7 měsíci

    It's struggle, cause I got the reamer version and you can't swap out the chucks. Frustrating they don't offer a keyless chuck except for the more expensive twist version. Bro I don't want the twist and the larger size. I'm kinda bummed now, it works I guess but it's not what I desired.

  • @jonhill373
    @jonhill373 Před 2 lety +2

    Pretty pointless to expect this tool to drive wood screws or drill holes. We should all know what kind of tool does those tasks. 12v on up. Clearly this tool was designed to perform repeated light duty tasks to ease the muscular strain of manual operating. I have a Milwaukee Fuel hammer drill for HD tasks. I also have a much lighter Makita that can drill and drive like a champ for half a day. I’ve also had quite a few other 18v brands through the years that have delivered varying degrees of longevity. Interesting Panasonic was one of my favorites, but Dewalt and Milwaukee have been the tried and true work horses through the years. Yup, I was a building contractor.
    This tool was invaluable when I changed out all of the duplex outlets and switches in my old house. The key was many many light duty tasks undoing and redoing screws holding wiring and screws for cover plates. I’m a 70 year old man who would not have enjoyed doing this with a large drill/driver, or an old fashioned screwdriver. Maybe a Yankee screwdriver, but all you can find these days is cheap versions of those.
    So the thing to learn here is how to select the right tool for the job. That means don’t select one that’s too big or too powerful, especially if the task requires many repeated steps, because you’ll tire quickly. It also means don’t select one that’s under powered, because you’ll risk burning out the tool prematurely and losing money.

    Love this tool, have two! One just suddenly broke, the nose popped off. I'm haveing trouble finding detailed schematics to know if I can just replace the nose piece with $15 part or if it's something more sinister. I have the collar, a flat washer, a compression washer and I'm assuming I missing a fourth piece. Pieces kinda flew everywhere when it broke. Thank you for any help

    The problem that we need to know about the torque, how is the torque works with this one!!
    The one that you mentioned it break down, it has a clutch so you can change the torque power. This one doesn't have it, so I'm wondering how is the torque works with this one, is it fixed to it's max torque always or it changes as much as I turn it??
    It's a screwdriver and you don't want to mess with the screwdriver hole if you give it extra torque!!

      I also have a DCF682, it rarely turns in the direction you twist it. You get 3 green lights, gently rotate the turns off. Only because it was around $80 bucks I hate to throw it away. I am a Milwaukee tool person, and regret not spending a little more for it. FYI when buying Milwaukee tools always check the part numbers carefully. I couldn't figure out why Lowes always had Milwaukee for less than Home Depot. Then I realized they had 2 different model numbers, Lowes had plastic gears and HD had all metal gears.
