4.0 out of 5 stars Nearly there, June 21, 2000

This review is from: Milwaukee 6539-6 2.4-Volt Ni-Cad Cordless Screwdriver (Tools & Home Improvement)

The Milwaukee power screwdriver is almost there. The torque is tremendous for the 2.4 volt motor. It's still solid and doesn't have any signs of bearing squawk - and I got it used. It's weight makes it a little heavy to grab for minor household repairs - but for repetitive jobs like driving dozens of sheet metal screws, changing outlets, or setting molly screws in sheetrock walls, it is a real wrist saver.

It would be a real advantage to have a bit holder on the driver itself instead of on the charger. Buy a magnetic bit extension so you can use those bits they sell on the hardware counter at 5 for a buck!

It's time for new batteries, since the ones I have are tired out. Not sure how long they last since the driver and batteries were used when I got it. If they last like the driver, I'll be a one happy camper.

4.0 out of 5 stars High Quality and enduring design, December 27, 2006

This review is from: Milwaukee 6539-6 2.4-Volt Ni-Cad Cordless Screwdriver (Tools & Home Improvement)

I purchased one of these 15 years ago and it is a gem. A tribute to its enduring design is that it has not changed one bit since I bought mine. One challenge is that, like all rechargeable devices, the battery enventually wears down (after about 12 years of moderate household use) and will not recharge. Unfortunately I have long since lost my paperwork for this tool and have no idea where to order a replacement rechargeable battery. Can anyone help me? (Update October 2008- The batteries for these are available at OSH and other major hardware retailers - no problem! I bought two for about $14 each for longer jobs, like furniture assembly, when the battery loses charge from use but there is still more work to do) -WPS
