Sorry, I Have to Dissent on This One, Based Upon 25 Years With This Tool [Posted on 2007-02-16]
I bought two of these screwdrivers when this model was produced by its original manufacturer, AEG Telefunken, in 1982. That company was known for good, reliable conservatively-designed equipment. "Fine German Engineering". But the company went under about 1990. It appears to me that Milwaukee obtained the design, because little is changed, except the color - from the original black to red. After 20 years, I had to replace the AEGs. I chose the Milwaukee, because I was quite satisfied with the the AEG tool. Unfortunately, while the driver and charger are the equivalent of the AEGs, the batteries are not. The AEG batteries lasted me 10-15 years. The Milwaukee batteries all lasted just past their warranty, a year. After replacing four batteries in a row, I have decided I can no longer afford this tool. These batteries were all purchased at various times and therefore must have been from different manufacturing batches, so a bad production run cannot explain my experience. I tested the charger and it is working correctly. The tool has no defect that can explain the poor battery life. In four years, I have paid more in replacement batteries than the tool originally cost. I no longer have a functioning battery, but rather than replace the it, I am going to replace the tool with one of the new lithium-battery screwdrivers, either the Hitachi DB3L or the Bosch PS20-2.
Horrible batteries [Posted on 2007-04-12]
I completely agree with the previous reviewer. This is a great cordless screwdriver. Mechanically, one of the best, if not the best, out there. However, batteries are awful. They don't hold charge for long and become completely useless after a year. Replacement batteries are very expensive. After the third battery died on me, I retired this tool and temporarily switched to a Skil 2336-02 3.6V 120V Mini-Drill/Driver USA that has a Li-Ion battery. I will soon upgrade to a Bosch PS20-2 Litheon 10.8 Volt Lithium Ion Pocket Driver With 2 Batteries which currently appears to be the best cordless screwdriver out there.
Awesome tool to have around the house! [Posted on 2007-05-07]
This is a super tool at a good price. Extra battery pack is great and the little extra attachments come in handy!

While most quality tools of this type are priced similarly, Milwaukee's version comes with bonuses. The charger is a fast high-current type which, when combined with the second battery, will never leave you without power. The keyed 3-jaw chuck accessory will give you lots of ideas for additional applications in addition to drilling small holes. The geared slow speed allows this tiny tool to easily drive #8 screws into virgin wood.
dont buy the case [Posted on 2007-09-08]
i love this tool. it never leaves my tool bag or my pocket so i have no need for the case which is just as sturdy as any milwaukee tool case but there is very little space for extra bits or screws or whatever. you can buy the same tool without the case and spend that $$on an extra battery or two.
