This little driver is the best thing ever made! I find it funny that people complain about it being too weak to drive screws. If u think it is too weak u are using it incorrectly, go get your 20v driver that u should already own to drive large amounts of long screws. I use this tool every week doing installs at stores mounting small brackets to hold wires up inside cabinets and the screws are 1/2 to 3/4" in length at the most and this palm driver is a dream to use. Has a light to see what I need to inside a dark cabinet and can set and drive in a screw without having to get inside the cabinet to use two hands. I only wish they said they were phasing out their smaller 12v line a few months ago I would have bought up a bunch more of these units 🙄 I'd buy bunch at $100 instead of the $200 they are going for now on Ebay when people decide to list them. Did just buy another one for $195 the other day and it is well worth that price to me since no other tool on the market can do what this thing does. I love all my little Ridged 12v drivers! Use them more than my Dewalt 18v units due to the less weight. Won a free set of Milwaukee 12v drill drivers and was happy to finally try out the little Red ones, and they worked well but just like my Ridgid units better. Ended up giving the Milwaukee set away since I never used them. Anyone want to get rid of their Palm Driver hit me up, I'll buy it off u, can always use a spare in another tool bag 😎
This tool was 100% made for Quick assembly and disassembly not driving in Screws into wood lmao its ashame that it didn't take off its $350 on eBay now
I love mine. I put drawer slides and hardware on with it..I bought an extra battery, but one lasts a long time for small screws. Not bulky like a bigger drill or driver.
For assembly work some say? which means you would have to be very careful how much pressure you put on the bit since that is what sets the speed/ IPM, don't want to break or strip those beautiful threads....bit is basically riding on a spring, cam-out anyone? would really like to know.....
Trust me... You need to be EXTREMELY careful when using this tool in a tight place... ESPECIALLY when backing out a screw. I had a situation where I did just that, the screw backed out, which pushed the tool back, which pushed my hand into the opposite wall of the box that I was working in, which increased the pressure on the pressures switch causing the tool to speed up. If this were a heavy duty glued and screwed box, I would have been screwed. Luckily it was just nailed together and the nails finally gave way, still injuring a knuckle on my right hand. Not good...

Mine comes in handy for many things around the house works great for hot water heater install metal buildings, carports and it is light weight.
I love a 4 minute video to discuss putting in 1 nail. Great use of time.

Can you do sockets
Damn, wich milwaukee made this, I just got down to 2 chargers on my shelf!
Handy looking tool, nice review Jay 👍
Anyone know why these are all gone? Will they bring them back?
Dorks,couldn't remake video after forgetting to put battery in?
They took away the trigger button so people wouldn't use it as a sex toy.
Sounds like a comercial for ridgid instead of a review
Where can I buy one ?
One battery, it's just a toy.
Good product but you are lost as a promoter..excuse me ..
the camera are too far
I think this product is made to get into tight spaces? AVERAGE user - never buy! CARPENTER that has to get into tight areas - Worth the cost.

HAhahah that's so pathetic and weak.
But it's an amazing prototype, can't wait for a professional version.
Hmmm...... it looks like you watched this after AvE's video. I too was curious to see how well it worked before a 200lb gorrila breaks it.
@@Shocker99 Actually I watched it before AvE's video. Just look at it struggle to put in a single screw. :( my Makita makes it go in like butter. :(
