Factory-Reconditioned Bosch PS10-2A-RT 12-Volt Max Lithium-Ion I-Driver Kit

Product Description

From the Manufacturer

This Bosch PS10-2A-RT 12-Volt Max Lithium-Ion Impact Driver Kit is a factory-reconditioned power tool. Reconditioned generally means that the tool has been returned to the manufacturer, who brings the tool back to like new conditions. Some tools may contain cosmetic blemishes. We'd wager there have been plenty of times you tried to maneuver a drill/driver into a spot that just wouldn't allow it and wished you had a small, powerful tool that would drive a screw where others just can't go. Here it is. The PS10-2A-RT is one of the handiest, most powerful little drivers we've laid hands on. It's impressively powered by "litheon," which Bosch calls "the industry's most advanced lithium-ion battery technology." We can attest that there's absolutely no lag in power, and the run time is great; more than 100 drives per charge. Recharge time is just 30 minutes, so you should never have to wait for a battery. The best feature, of course, is the clever design. Instead of a pistol grip like most drivers, this one has a sturdy tool body and an articulating head that has five detents, letting you set it however you need it. The head itself is just 3-1/2-inches long, so it's no struggle at all to slip it into tight spaces suchas in between studs, under-sink cabinets, between joists and other tricky situations. If it's length you need, just flip the head to the vertical position and it's literally like having a screwdriver at your fingertips; it's not quite a-foot long at its full length. It uses 1/4-inch hex bits, and they're easy to change. We would have liked to see some on-board bit storage, but that's a small point. The two-finger trigger is comfortable, and it's quite sensitive, so take care not to strip your fasteners while you're on the learning curve. In all, we're really pleased with this little driver, and we think there's a place for it in just about every toolbox.

Plenty of torque, that my Hitachi could not deliver. A short piviting neck that can get just about in any area. Would I buy it again? In a minute.

By the time I unpacked I got surprises. It comes with 2 batteries and a 30 minute charger. I wondered: Never more I'll be frustrated about my driver battery is discharged!

The sound it produces is impressive. Is up to its own power. By now I never found any hex bolt up to 1/2" that I could not screw in and out.

The only complain that I have is about its clutch. I could not find a perfect setup to work with MDP or plastic. Or the screw gets too deep and damage the material or does not go all the way.

Bottom line, I'm very pleased with this purchase.
