Now Available in the U.S.: This Electric-Assist Screwdriver from Japan
Posted in: UncategorizedA bestseller in Japan, this electric-assist screwdriver with a ball-shaped handle is by Japan’s Vessel Tools. (That company, formed in 1916, was Japan’s first mass-manufacturer of screwdrivers.)
Aimed at installers and tradespeople working in tight spaces, it offers the convenience of a powered driver without the bulky form factor. It’s also lightweight at just 0.6 lbs, reducing fatigue for those doing overhead work.
It offers three adjustable speeds (Low: 280 RPM, Medium: 340 RPM, High: 400 RPM), and can of course also be locked and used manually.
It can be recharged via USB-C.
These are now distributed in the ‘States, by Lowes as well as online retailers. They run $80 to $86.
