The project is a heavy, free-hanging, collapsible work table that I wanted to attach to the garage wall. Because of its weight, I decided to use 6" lag screws to attach the table to the wall studs. To my delight, this compact driver sank those lag screws into the studs with ease. I should also note that I first tried my 12-Volt Makita driver for this task, and the Makita couldn't handle it. With that said, the Dewalt driver will be my go-to driver from now on.Some features that makes this unit great:*The compact size.It's small enough to fit into tight spaces like under a cabinet or between ceiling joists and its light weight is great when you need to work overhead.*Power.It has a good amount of torque to drive or remove some of the toughest screws and bolts where other drivers I've used have failed.*Durability and design:Even though it's small and lightweight, this driver is solidly built. The ergonomically contoured handle is comfortable and the unit is very well balanced.*LED Illumination:There are 3 LED lights that eliminate annoying shadows while working. The LED lights also light up without having to engage the motor; a slight pressing of the trigger illuminates the LEDs.*Accessories:This kit comes with 2 Lithium Ion batteries that fully charge in an hour (2nd battery only available while supplies last), a durable storage bag to keep everything together, and a handy belt clip to keep the driver with you while working.All and all, I'd say this is a fantastic driver and very well worth the price. I'd recommend it to anyone, from building professionals to DIYers like myself.10 of 10 people found the following review helpful.This is all you need; don't need Max Drill Driver or Max ScrewdriverBy Eugene I. KimYou are probably looking at this if you plan to fix a few things around the house. You might be wondering if you should get the 18 volt version. You might be wondering if you should get the Max Impact Driver, the Max ScrewDriver, or just the Max Drill Driver. That was me. Well, I'm a curious person, so I got all three Max drivers. I think, for most people though, this Impact Driver is the only powered driver you need to fix things, hang things, and assemble a few furnitures around the house.This is an exceptionally well made tool. The build quality is excellent; just from holding the grip you can tell it's got premium materials when compared to other drills. The power on these little Max drivers are also surprisingly strong. I have a bigger 18v lithium-ion Hitachi, but I really can't tell the difference in power between the Max (12v) and the 18v lithium for most of the stuff I do around the house. In case you don't know how impact drivers work, imagine a vice grip locked around the drill bit. Then imagine a hammer rapidly tapping the vice grip around to help turn/rotate the drill bit when it is "stuck." That's why these things work so well when driving long screws in to hard wood.One reviewer commented that the Max Screwdriver has impact-like feature. I don't think that is true. I think he might be referring to the torque control knob similar to a drill driver. This is nothing like the Impact Driver. You can really feel the difference when you use both. When challenged, the Max ScrewDriver will either bounce out of the screw then strip the screw head or just start free spinning because of the torque control setting, but the Impact Driver will really drive the screw in when you simply hold the trigger all the way down. If you didn't want the screw to over tighten, then you can apply less trigger pressure, and it will tap lightly, still without stripping or free-spinning. The "Impact feature" only turns on automatically when there is a need for it, so it is actually quite okay for delicate screwing as well if you know how to adjust finger pressure on the trigger. So the Max Impact Driver pretty much can do everything the Max Screwdriver does, but better. I think most people use the Screwdriver when they are screwing things in to delicate parts like electronics and computers. But even for that, the Screwdriver is over-powered and over-sized. You don't need that much power for electronic stuff, and the Max ScrewDriver is still too big to reach all the small areas inside, for example, a computer. Do you need the 12v Max Drill Driver? I have it, but I rarely use it. I rarely use the 18v Hitachi drill driver since I got the Max Impact Driver. You can still drill very well with the Impact Driver if you have hex-shank drill bits. It's actually easier to switch the drill bits on the Impact Driver, so again, I prefer the Impact Driver even for drilling. Most other reviewers will tell you that the Impact Driver seems to be better at drilling as well. Yea, I don't know why they are making the other two drivers in the 12v Max series. I'm not a pro, but for non-pros doing non-pro stuffs at home, I think all you need is this Impact Driver.I was putting in some self-drilling screws in to a metal frame to install a backyard gate latch. I tried using both the 12v Max Impact Driver vs. 18v lithium Hitachi drill driver. Initially, they both drilled the drill-portion of the screw in with similar effort (I can't tell any difference), but when the self-drilling screw got to the thread part to screw through the metal, the impact motion kicked in, and it kicked the Hitachi's butt out of my backyard.6 of 6 people found the following review helpful.Very impressed! small powerful and Led'sBy EDI have a high end small impact by another major manufacture about 7 years old with new batteries. This tool is lighter, stronger and a plus to use with the LED lights. The Lithium batteries are a super big plus. The other tool may have a slightly higher build quality but it does not matter in real world use. I have one complaint about all of these like tools by all the manufactures - they each include these nylon bags for the tools which I believe are cluttering up the landfills. Most of us do not need all these bags.See all 23 customer reviews...
