I think it's fascinating and solves that age-old problem, "How can we relieve people from the struggle of pressing a trigger?"

[IZylusI]

This is a very high tech tool. I like it!

[dratter]

I like the one I have and it has more power than I anticipated.

[hassleoffa]

I have a thing called a "wrist" that operates by mind control when I think "righty tighty" ... it just happens. It also does reverse, and it can open a beer.

those triggers are so complicated, and they hurt my hands. hahahaha

[TickyMN]

Interesting technology but it sounded like it was running out of power driving the screw the second time.

[DaveGatton]

That doesn't seem very ergonomic to me. Just give me a good quality tool with a TRIGGER!

[salkcv]

good...until u meet the corner box. :)

[artiset]

Completely hopeless. Yes, I know this tool.

[chrishorn]

Ummm, sure. Why not. I am not really sure there was a need.

[ifhss]

LOL so this is basically a mini drill with no trigger? A screwdriver for old women....

[Lazrahh]

wow that is a stupid tool. Why doesn't black and decker improve on the quality of the tools they already have? I have had many B&D tools over the years. Years ago they used to be much better. In recent years they have taken a SERIOUS dive in quality. I will no longer buy their tools. I will no longer be suckered in by their good price point.
