My impressions of the cordless screwdriver? Analysis on the example of BOSCH Go 2
Talking about the usefulness of cordless screwdrivers, first of all, you need to think about what they are for and what tasks they perform. If you often have to deal with small fasteners, then the cordless screwdriver will be an indispensable tool. It is useful for assembling furniture, and for servicing equipment, and for repairing computers, and for car service, and for electrical installation.
It will take just a couple of seconds to tighten one bolt or self-tapping screw with a cordless screwdriver. If the fasteners are located in a hard-to-reach place that cannot be reached with a simple screwdriver when you have to pull the screwdriver out of the socket all the time and adjust it again, the cordless screwdriver is definitely will help out.
I know that many people believe that a cordless screwdriver and a screwdriver are the same thing. This is not entirely true.
First, the dimensions, shape and weight differ. The cordless screwdriver is smaller and lighter, so your hands don't get tired of it, and you can even carry it in your pocket.
Secondly, a screwdriver is often equipped with an additional drilling function. And the more functionality, the higher the price.
Third, the power and rotation speed are different. A screwdriver may be overpowering for small fasteners, but a cordless screwdriver will do just fine! It will come in handy for smaller volumes of work and narrower hard-to-reach places.
I'll tell you a little more about the BOSCH Go 2 cordless screwdriver.
The BOSCH Go 2 screwdriver is lightweight and compact. It has a straight shape and can easily handle deep-seated fasteners. The screwdriver takes about an hour to charge. There is no charger included, only a Micro-USB cable. In addition to a screwdriver and a cable, the set includes 1 PH1 bit, 1 PH2 bit and a plastic case. The case, by the way, is not very durable.
Here are the main advantages of the BOSCH Go 2 screwdriver:
- Easy control and two types of switching on - when switching a button or when pressing a screwdriver on the working part.
- The ability to change settings. There are 5 torque options and a maximum performance mode.
- The presence of an electronic brake that stops rotation instantly.
- It is comfortable to hold in the hand, and the rubberized handle prevents slipping even when wearing gloves.
- Smart stop system. When you move between the bit and the screw, rotation will stop, which will preserve the surface around the fastener.
- Universal mount 1/4 HEX, to which you can purchase any necessary bits.
