The best budget cordless screwdrivers in online stores - Leroy and others + Video

Is it worth buying a budget screwdriver for home?

Cordless screwdrivers are among the most common varieties of power tools, together with a drill and grinder. For small installation and repair work, you can even use a standard screwdriver, but for medium-sized work it is better to use a screwdriver to screw in self-tapping screws and screws (for example, when installing drywall),

since the number of fastening elements is in the hundreds.

General information

There are several parameters that you should definitely pay attention to when buying:

1. Power. This will generally characterize the performance of the screwdriver. For household purposes, usually 500 to 700 watts are enough.

2. Torque. This characteristic makes it clear what force the device can develop for unscrewing / tightening screws and bolts. The bigger it is, the better. But keep in mind that the price for such productive models will be much higher.
3. Reverse.

   This mechanism allows the chuck to rotate, but in the opposite direction. Use it to unscrew bolts or screws. Almost all modern screwdrivers have such a mechanism.

4. Rotation speed. The spread of such a parameter is quite large, and there are models where the value is from 500 to 1400 rpm.

   Everything here is selected depending on what kind of work you plan to carry out. In fact, even high speed models have a speed reduction mechanism.

5. Ergonomics in general. Before buying, try to estimate the weight, design, how the device lies in your hand. Such parameters are extremely important for those who plan to work constantly, especially at a height.

6. The presence of an impact mechanism. This ability of the screwdriver makes it possible, along with the rotation, to oscillate the chuck. This can even replace a hammer drill in certain types of work, for example, when drilling a hole for nails and dowels with a small diameter.
7. Battery type. Quite an important parameter.

There are many different device models available in the construction market, and sometimes it seems that buying an inexpensive device is not so bad. We offer you the TOP budget screwdrivers 2020, which contain the best and really inexpensive models.
