    I have a 2019 DeWalt set for those type of tasks, y’know the rechargeable drill with interchangeable bits.

    But a USB-C screwdriver sounds like something to put in someone’s Christmas stocking.

      My thought process was similar when I first heard of them. I asked my most handy friend why electric screwdrivers exist when drill.

      He said that it was primarily because sometimes low torque was needed for delicate tasks and it’s much easier to control that in a less high powered device.

      I’ve never had real cause to use one, but that explanation at least seems plausible.
