If you need to tighten or loosen a handful of screws, you can probably get away with using a regular screwdriver to get the job done by hand. But if you need to tighten or loosen dozens or even hundreds of screws at a time, getting your hands on an electric screwdriver is a much better option. Don’t just grab the first one you can find, either, as many aren’t equipped with enough power to handle hard-to-tighten or tough-to-loosen fasteners.
The Milwaukee M4 Hex Screwdriver Kit is a stronger choice because it’s designed to deliver the power and torque needed to handle many screws at once. It’s also on sale for 50% off during Walmart’s Summer Deals event, making it an even better buy at this time. It normally retails for $249 at Walmart, but for at least the next few days, you can order one for only $125.
50% OffAlthough the Milwaukee electric screwdriver at the center of this kit is brushed rather than brushless, which limits its power somewhat, it still produces a peak torque of 44 inch-pounds. It also operates at two speeds — 200 RPM or 600 RPM — and features a 21-position clutch, making it easy to take total control over its power for enhanced performance and precision.
This electric screwdriver is also extremely easy to handle, thanks to its compact frame that is under 10 inches long and its lightweight design, which limits it to about 1 pound. Additionally, it boasts a quick-change chuck to make bit changes effortlessly, even with only one hand free.
Plus, this was the first Milwaukee M4 tool to use the brand’s Redlithium 2.0 Ah battery, delivering approximately 50% more power and productivity than other M4 options and allowing it to drill more than 200 holes on a single charge. It comes with a battery and charger, too, further making it a must-buy for anyone in the market for an electric screwdriver.
“It’s an excellent tool, and the perfect addition to any tool set,” one reviewer wrote. “It’s simple and robust, and it features two speeds.”
“It’s a well-made and solid tool that’s very easy to use,” another shopper added. “It’s especially great if you have arthritis in your hands. It offers great battery life, and its power is exceptional.”
