[Amazon.ca] - Black & Decker Alkaline Cordless Screwdriver - $10.19 w/ free shippin

I had this one. Got it as a combo pack with stud finder. It is very uncomfortable to hold. I never use it, it is easier to use just normal screwdrivers.

In the situation that you need to apply pressure, this one is more comfortable to hold ...


I own both models and found them fairly convenient. I use rechargeable NiMH in them. For certain tasks, cordless drills are "too" powerful.

That 20 piece set is my go to housewarming gift, it has great utility.

Had one for years, very comfortable, great power for a little screwdriver and easy to use.

Black and Decker should just go out of business already. It's basically the RCA of tools now

Pretty good price for a battery powered screw driver with 2 of the popular bits (flat and philips)

This one is with 20 pcs Bit set for $16.98

If you need the bits, then it's worth it to pay $6 for the additional bits.

I don't see any free shipping for this (unless you spend 25$ total on amazon.ca) ?¿

Meh AA/alkaline screwdrivers are a bit passe.

Every once in a while CT has their little 3.7V Li-Ion powered driver on sale for like $15 or so and it's a great little driver. One of the few CT/Mastercraft power tools I'd recommend. Trust me it's much better than the B&D AA unit in the OP (my sister had one of those and it wasn't that great and isn't that nice to use either). I've given a few away as gifts and everyone loves it.

They have a newer version of the ones I had bought, but basically the same thing I think with a different casing. The reg. price is something stupid like $50 but just wait for a sale and it's much cheaper.

I bought the above for about a buck or two more at Walmart a few months back. I have it in a kitchen drawer and use it often. It's light and slim compared to a cordless drill. This unit won't replace a cordless drill + bits as the torque isn't anywhere near what a cordless drill can put out. I would estimate that the torque that this can put out is about 20-25% of what you could do using a screwdriver and your hand.

Suprisely, Black&decker is owning DeWalt tools. Its another name is Stanley Black and decker.

This tool is good to use except its super slow/nonadjustable speed.

Yep, that's the one.

4 AA batteries seems like a hassle.

Price is now $9.59 for any one sitting on the fence.

Kind of tempted for $10 although my last battery powered screwdriver sucked.

Worth $10 for sure, if you want the bits as well that same SKU is for sale @ walmart for $17
