Lightweight Drill/Driver

I own about four cordless drills, and this is the best for 90% of jobs. Small, light, has an LED so you can see what’s happening (though I wish this would turn on at half trigger, rather than once it’s turning), and speed is controlled by the pressure on the trigger. I’ve had it for a year and wish I’d found it first. Plenty of power for most tasks, delicacy and control to avoid stripping screws, long life battery. For prolonged drilling or large bits you need a powered drill anyway. Use it with a magnetic bit holder so you don’t drop screws and you’re good to go. Also great in tight places where my other “high power” cordless drills either don’t fit or are are clunky to use.
