 Combine power, speed, and longevity with the PS10-2A Impact Driver Kit(click each to enlarge). |
This driver is powered by 12-volt batteries from Bosch's Litheon line of lithium-ion batteries. Lithium-Ion batteries have a life cycle up to 5 times longer than any other competitive lithium-ion batteries on the marketplace. These batteries are only to be charged with the BC430 lithium-ion 10.8-volt and 12-volt max lithium-ion charger. The Litheon batteries are compatible with all Bosch 10.8-volt and 12-volt max lithium-ion tools. Bosch’s Litheon batteries have optimal battery life and performance, 35 percent more run time, and up to two times as many recharge cycles.
Compact and Powerful
The Bosch PS10-2A has 80 inches-per-pound of torque and can drive at least 100 drivers per battery charge. It features an ultra-compact head length of 3-1/2 inches, which is three times shorter than any competitor’s drill. The driver also uses 1/4-inch hex bits that change easily thanks to the quick-change chuck, and it features a comfortable and responsive two-finger trigger.
Additionally its 7+1 electronic clutch ensures precision driving by letting you match the correct speed to the task at hand. The driver's trigger boasts a revolutionary design that provides increased sensitivity and control and eliminates over-torque in soft base materials. An added bonus, the design makes it easy to switch to the drill mode for making pilot and other small bore holes.
Smart Features for Easy Use
To help minimize work fatigue, even as you position the drill over your head or at awkward angles, the PS10-2A's cushion-grip handle ensures comfort in the grip zone. For added convenience, an integrated hanger hook allows for easy tool storage and accessibility.
ProVantage Guarantee Warranty
The PS10-2A comes with the ProVantage three-year protection plan, which guarantees two years of battery protection and one year of tool protection. Under this plan, you can receive two years of free battery replacements, tool replacement for one year, and a free tool repair package for the second and third years.
What's in the Box
The PS10-2A impact driver kit includes one PS10-2A 12-volt drill, one carrying case, two 12-volt batteries, one 30-minute charger, and two 1.5-inch drive bits.

I couldn't get my drill into a very tight spot, so I ordered the new Bosch 12 Volt PS10-2A Impact Driver. Needless to say, I was not disappointed. The drill fit into the tight spot and had plenty of power to drill the holes through some pretty tough laminate flooring material and on into the plywood subfloor. I own a Bosch portable table saw and a Bosch sander, and I am also very happy with their performance.

I bought this driver over 6 months ago as an "elegant", or so I thought, replacement for my aging Black & Decker Versa Pack driver. I REALLY tried to like this Bosch driver since I bought it, but just can't get there.
PROS:
Multi-angle head
Quick change chuck
Gets in tight places
Uses Li-Ion batteries with fast charge cycles
Comes with 2 batteries so you can keep going
Good balance
Has (effectively) 2 speeds
Has multi torque electronic "clutch" settings
CONS:
Has 2 speeds: fast & too fast
Has 2 torque settings: too much and WAY too much!
After owning other Bosch tools, I bought this with some confidence it would work well. The first one had one speed/torque setting (despite the dial settings): HIGH. I exchanged it for another which had multiple settings as (apparently) designed. These proved to be:
SPEED: The first 10% of the trigger travel immediately invokes the next to highest speed and the other 90% invokes the highest speed - hardly suitable for delicate or precise work. My 20 year old Black and Decker is more sensitive.
TORQUE: The slide switch has 7 settings plus a "drill" setting (max. torque?). Setting these at any setting apparently invokes random torque settings - anything from "strip the screw out of the hole" to "rip the head of the screw off". Once or twice the driver did stop when it approached a certain set point - albeit different than what I had in mind about where it should stop.
At first I thought Bosch didn't understand what "variable speed" and "torque control" settings meant. But then I thought "they MUST understand that - they're in the tool business...".
I then bought a Bosh combo kit consisting of a 12v Max driver - Model PS20, and an impactor.... Read more ›

I'm a professional SAT TV installer and I use this tool everyday for driving/screwing applications. I bought it so I could stop carrying my 18V drill on my tool bet all day, here's my review after 3 months
The GOOD:
It's powerfull enough to handle most driving applications and even some light drilling with an adapter, it has allowed me to reduce the amount of time I carry my full size drill by about 70%, my knees are thanking me it.
Roughly half the weight of my 18V drill (RIDGID X3)
The 5 position head is versatile and make a lot of tasks easier or at least more comfortable.
The batteries last a long time and charge quickly.
Quick change chuck upside is it allows for very fast and simple bit change, using it with a set of magnetic nutdrivers saves a lot of time and effort!
The BAD:
Quick change chuck downside is that the bits have some play in the chuck, althougth they cant fall out, they are not not held firmly in the tool
The play in the chuck makes drilling unstable and imprecise, it cannot remplace a drill at all for making holes bigger than 1/4inch.
The driver only starts turning after you have pressed through the first 1/4inch of travel of the trigger, which makes using the variable speed a bit akward at first and requires some getting used to, but it's quite precise once you get the hang of it. You may strip out screw holes EASILY if you try to learn this while driving screws in soft materials like cabinets.
The useless hanging pin keeps getting in the way, I removed it on the second day. thankfully it is not permenantly attached to the tool
Overall I accomplished my goal of reducing the weight of my tool belt, this tool is not perfect but still VERY, VERY usefull.

To me what says a lot is that when Bosch first introduced this line of sub-compact tools, they correctly labeled them as 10.8 volt. When their competitors saw what success Bosch was having with the line, they copied them, and came out with their own versions. The competition called them 12 volt, which as I've learned is not the rms voltage, but is a marketing gimick. I understand why Bosch relabeled their line the same way, and I guess you're being pretty successful when your competitors copy your products.
I've had this particular model for 2 years and have come to really like it. The shape with the rotating head is, or was unique until others started copying that too. 600 rpm is fast for a 1 speed and it really has good power for the size. The trigger took a little getting used to being that it turns on an instant after you hit it, but it's not a 1/2 second as another reviewer said, and it varies the speed quite well unlike said reviewer found. He may have gotten a defective unit.
I really like the clutch, an electronic rather than mechanical one. I find it very accurate and easy to work with and find that I rarely use it in the "drill' position. But on a recent occasion I did, and this drill saved me from having to go out and find a 5 foot flexible bit, which would have cost me $40+.
I was in a basement needing to drill a hole through the top plate into a wall so I could install a thermostat. It was double plated(2 2x6) and my cordless drill wouldn't fit in the space between the floor jousts, so my only other option was get a flexible bit and drill up from the hole I'd cut in the drywall. Then I thought of the PS10 with a spade bit. I used a 1/2 inch bit and it took a while but the drill performed well, though I didn't let it heat up.... Read more ›
