Product Information

Torque – Torque refers to the tightening force of the screwdriver. As such, the higher the torque, the easier it will be to tighten or loosen a screw. Most electric precision screwdrivers have an electric torque of 0.1 to 0.2 N.m. If you are repairing electronics, such as tablets and laptops, you will need a screwdriver with a manual switch to give you higher torque power.

We love the stainless steel build of this screwdriver. It has a ridged area just below the control buttons exactly where our index finger rests while using it. The ScopeAround Electric Precision Screwdriver has three built-in LED lights that create a shadowless working experience. It’s a nice feature to have when you are working in areas with low visibility. The battery power of an electric screwdriver typically ranges from four to 12 volts. The more volts, the more power it has—both speed and battery life. If you need more speed and power for tough materials or hardy screws, go for a higher voltage option. SpeedAttachments - If you’re new to the DIY game, look for an electric screwdriver with enough bits to get you started. A mix of allen, Philips, cross head and hex bits will get most jobs done. A: Using an electric precision screwdriver is reasonably straightforward. To start, ensure your screwdriver is charged, attach your desired bit, set the tool into position, and then select forward or reverse to start rotating the fastener. Some products may have additional steps, but most are easier to use than a traditional drill. Q: Can an electric precision screwdriver drill holes? Speed - When operating a drill, electric screwdriver, and other tools, the slower you go, the more torque you can safely deliver, which is best for more precise tasks. When your tool's speed is higher, you could be applying less torque, which is usually better for lighter-duty tasks. Speed for electric precision screwdrivers is measured in rotations per minute (RPM) or radians per minute. You can read more on rotations per minute below. Some precision screwdrivers have swappable shafts that can be extended or flexible, which is great for versatility. Extendable shafts are great for reaching deep corners, and flexible shafts can turn screws in awkward positions or tight areas. Electronics repairs

This is a specialised set of electrical screwdrivers, all fully insulated. You get two handles, and 17 inserts, all 154mm long, to go in them, plus a matching pair of pliers and insulation strippers. All the blades are extra-slim for working with sunken screws or those that are kept down by springs, and you get a selection of straight, Phillips, Pozidriv and Torx ends, none of them particularly big. The ScopeAround Electric Precision Screwdriver is the lightest electric precision screwdriver with a built-in battery that we have on this list. Weighing only 60 grams, it made the other screwdrivers we tested feel too heavy. It is lightweight and portable, plus gives the best grip, making it a close call between the ScopeAround and the Jakemy.

Wera’s Kraftform handle has great curvatures and materials for exceptional ergonomics and gripping power. The grip is designed in a way that there are three zones, the top for fast rotation, the middle for gripping control, and the base near the shaft for precision twisting. Inspect the screwdriver bit, looking for any damage or excessive wear. A broken or worn bit will not engage with or could even damage a screw or other fixing. If it looks bad, pop in a new one. A: Whether you need a drill or electric precision screwdriver depends on your project. For drilling holes and projects with hardwoods, a drill is a better choice as it provides additional torque and power. An electric precision screwdriver is best for electronics and softwoods that can easily split with too much pressure. Electric screwdrivers are also nimbler than a drill and can be used in small, odd spaces where a drill generally cannot reach. Q: Are electric precision screwdrivers worth it?

This precision screwdriver includes a good number of bits. We love that it includes onboard bit storage, perfect for portability, organization, and needing only one screwdriver type for many jobs. The rotating end cap easily extends out to reveal slots that store 12 double-sided bits for 24 total bit options. This isn't a cordless screwdriver for use in household tasks, but rather a precision screwdriver for use in repairing electronics, jewelry, eyeglasses, or other items with very tiny screws. The screwdriver itself is not much larger than an ink pen, at just a bit over 7 inches in length and a little more than 1/2 inch in diameter. The tool runs off a 350-mAh rechargeable battery and includes a USB cord for charging the battery when needed. An indicator light lets you know when the screwdriver is fully charged. It has a forward/reverse button and three built-in LED lights, which are very helpful when doing delicate work.Inline-grip cordless screwdrivers have a straight shape that’s most like a regular screwdriver. These are a little more awkward to hold, but they are easier to maneuver into tight spaces than pistol-grip options. The Sharden Precision Screwdriver Set is the kitchen sink of precision screwdriver sets with 120 total bits. This is the precision screwdriver set to buy if you don’t want to ever worry about having the right tool for your precision tasks. Most precision screwdrivers come with various bits and head types. Bit versatility is essential for electronics repairs that use many kinds of screws different from the most common types. Shaft type

What's a precision electric screwdriver?

Electric screwdrivers fill the gap between power drills and manual screwdrivers. These handy cordless tools are lightweight, easy to use, and very convenient when you need to drive a lot of screws while assembling furniture, hanging artwork, tightening loose fasteners, or doing similar projects around your home. But Deane Biermeier, a licensed contractor, carpenter, and member of The Spruce’s Home Improvement Editorial Board, cautions, “Remember that an electric screwdriver isn’t a drill. Electric screwdrivers are excellent at reaching into confined spaces and installing or removing screws that require relatively little torque. While there are heavier-duty electric screwdrivers, these tools are generally intended for use on lighter tasks. Heavier use, such as driving long screws into wood without a pilot hole, is a job for a drill, not a screwdriver.”
