| Love itSeptember 18, 2017 Replaced a similar tool (NICAD powered) with this one. I loved my last one from another manufacturer, but the batteries just died to quickly. Thus far, 6 months, this one is going strong and performs as well as my last one. To sum it up, I love it. It worked great when I used to for everything having to do with moving into a new, but 95 year old house (replacing old electrical outlets, realigning door hinges, drilling holes for wall anchors and their screws, ...). I also used it for fixing my electric stove, specifically unscrewing the back panel and quickly screw it back in before I lose my grip on the panel.I recommend pushing a few screw driver bits to extend its usefulness (1/16, 1/8, 3/16). The traveling case is perfect especially when I don't want to drag my cordless drill to a family member's house to fix something small. Excellent value- works greatMay 11, 2017 Probably the best bang for the buck cordless screwdriver available. This is priced slightly higher than the more mainstream ones you'll find in the big box stores- but it's way better. It's well designed, ergonomic, and has plenty of torque for most jobs. It also worth mentioning that this has a variable torque clutch that will keep you from stripping many bolts and screws. Having a built in light that is button operated is the icing on the cake. I like the fact that you can turn it off and on at will- not just when you hit the drive button, only to time out after a certain amount of time. I find this extremely handy when working in lower light conditions. I looked at both the Milwaukee, Dewalt, and Makita offerings for cordless screwdrivers- and while the Makita and Dewalt have considerably larger voltages- I still think this is the better value and really hits the target for what these things are designed to do. Best electric screwdriver I have ever ownedApril 16, 2017 This is my third one! Two for work and one for home. I use these 8 hours a day dismantling electronics. Occasionally use them to drill holes. They have an LED light, and the torque is great up to the last few seconds of battery life. The only issue is after five years, the first one I bought switch has failed. My local Hitachi service center had it for 6 months and they could never get the right parts. (Or so they say. I think they were just incompetent). So I shipped it to the factory and they send me a fee replacement.Not something for heavy wood construction use like constant drilling of holes, or driving screws into fresh wood. But the best electric screwdriver I have ever owned. Because it is lightweight, it will not give one tennis elbow or shoulder bursitis like the heaver battery drills do. Best tool for low torque applicationsFebruary 10, 2017 Best cordless screwdriver for the money!If you don't need the high torque, then this is the tool to have.Carrying case.TWO Li-ion batteries.LIFETIME TOOL WARRANTY.Under $100!How can you go wrong???Yes, the batteries are rated at 3.6V, but these were made for a specific purpose: lower torque applicationsI use them in short fasteners that are usually buried into plastic or electronics / computer environments which don't need big torque.Adjustable angle handle makes things comfortable.The soft "rubber" (green part) of the handle is soft enough for added comfort.Recharge on these batteries are pretty quick.Lots of torque settings to cover almost any need.The only negative I've found is that it can get accidently triggered if you haphazardly throw it into your tool bag, but that's what the switch lock-out is for... Great for right handed; left not so muchAugust 15, 2016 Works as advertised. Hold a charge for a long time. I don;t understand why this doesn't come with a phillips and a flathead bit. I had to pirate one from by other drill set. Good quality, but I wish the trigger was designed better. Only right handed people can use this, because your thumb operates the trigger. You could use your left and have your index/middle finger operate the trigger, but my wife is a leftie and he hates the design. So, if you're a righty, go for it. Just what I needed and more.August 26, 2015 This screwdriver met and exceeded my expectations. Coming from years of use with a Milwaukee nicad cordless screwdriver this was a huge upgrade. This unit comes with two lithium ion batteries, but for you average project around the house one battery will seem to last forever. This Hitachi has a lot a torque for such a small motor and great clutch, so you can dial the power way down to drive small delicate screws. I use this driver mostly for dissembling and assembling equipment and light to med house hold projects. It could probably handler moderately heavy duty tasks, but I would not recommend it as that is what you drill is for. | | | | |

| Great handheld power screwdriverMay 29, 2017 Great handheld power screwdriver. Wish the handle would lock in the two different positions. It has a friction hinge that sometimes does;t hold the angle (which is annoying). Otherwise, works well. Mine only cam with a phillips tip, so had to buy a pack of different "fast change" tips, which weren't expensive. High Quality Ergonomic FlawsFebruary 17, 2017 Arrived quickly (after it got back in stock) and was packaged well. Bought because of positive reviews both consumer and professional reviews. One rating site review mentioned that the driver was capable of driving 300 screws on one charge (I didn't check that out but there seems to be a lot of power).Nice looking and heavy build for a dedicated powered screwdriver. Comes with the charger, two batteries, tool, and lifetime warranty at a cost well below other professional drivers. In operation it was comfortable to use but the switch position requires use of thumb to activate. I would have preferred to use my index finger but it wasn't unusable. Also, once in changing from a straight grip to angled it pinched the web of my thumb (and it hurt) and brought up a blood blister. I won't do that again. Hold it with both hands and bend it instead of doing it on the fly will prevent this but I deducted a star for it.Pros: Quality is great, long lasting batteries (enough juice for most jobs), Power enough to drive long screws into wood without lagging. Well priced compared to comparable competition. Fast charger (about 2.5 hours for empty to full).Cons: Handle doesn't lock in position though I haven't had it slip. I pinched my thumb when switching from straight to angle grip. Inconvenient switch position.Conclusion: All in all I would purchase again it in a heart beat. Very good quality. This Cordless screwdriver is simply awesome. I have purchased it primarily for my 1/10th ...December 1, 2015 This Cordless screwdriver is simply awesome. I have purchased it primarily for my 1/10th scale R/C cars and so far it's fricking perfect! It's tough to find a cordless screwdrive with enough torque AND a sensitive enough clutch for hobby work like this. The clutch is VERY sensitive and definitely won't strip your screws as long as you use a high quality driver and set the clutch properly. It's very lightweight considering the torque and clutch capabilities and feels well balanced in your hand. I agree with the other reviewers it would be nice to have a locking mechanism for the handle but it doesn't seem to be a big deal so far. The LED targeting light is helpful but may or may not point directly at the screw or bolt you are working. It's close enough to help you see in a dark spot though and nice to have. I'm sure I'll be using this for many other projects like IKEA furniture and hanging shelves, assembling racks etc, not to mention many years to come. Nearly the perfect tool. This is a really good product as a power screw driverFebruary 7, 2015 This is a really good product as a power screw driver. It is not a real powerful drill and as a Handyman I do need a much more power unit to use as a drill. This one is light and has a light, it bends and works really well. It is Hitachi and as with all Hitachi products comes with a five year warrantee. This is my third one and when I had a problem some years ago I sent it back to Hitachi and they promptly send me a new one. It really is a very good product used properly. A new Hitachi fanAugust 14, 2013 My husband has used Milwaukee to the exclusion of all others for something like 25 years. They've been failing in quality control for awhile. I've probably gotten him 2 replacement batteries and a charger in the last 2 years. Maybe less. And their screwdrivers really don't have the options a professional tool should have. Not to mention that they're really overpriced for the features you get.He says he's never looking back. This set charges in less time and holds a charge longer than his Milwaukees ever did. And the tool itself has more options. The built-in flashlight could be better (for technical work), but is good enough in a well-lighted situation. The only possible improvement beyond that would be the ability to leave the extra battery in the charger. For people that use their tools every day, the condition of the spare is one of those things you've got to know about. These are really the only possible improvements that could be made.All in all, for technicians this is a fabulous tool. With the options available, he really hasn't had any trouble with it, and it's also got enough power for chores needing more. An all-around fabulous driver. HandyNovember 25, 2011 This is my 2nd Hitachi power driver....same one. I had my 1st one for over 3 years , which I totally rely on for work as a PC tech. The forward / reverse switch started getting sticky. I will be sending it in under its life time warranty for repair (a big plus). The new model apprantly is a little thicker with a grip and almost an inch longer....the switch feels better...comes with a brighter LED light...and overall its more quieter / smoother. There's a lot of torque...too much even @ the lowest setting (1) for my personal use most of the time. I also use it for personal home jobs...which has the potential for heavy duty functions. The battery life is good....and uses the same type. It only takes 30 minute for full charge. Great tool! | | | | |

| Folds up and bites, ouch!October 5, 2017 A design flaw makes this one annoying to use. The handle doesn't lock into position, so while using it, it often folds up on the hinged part. If your hand is in the wrong position when this happens, it catches skin -- basically, it bites me if I'm not careful!I like the swappable battery and will look for that feature in the future. I'm not sure the need for hi and low speed or the lock -- nice to have maybe, but mostly have to move them back to a useable position when the screwdriver doesn't work as expected.For the money, this should have been so much better. Three stars as I have been able to use it on multiple projects the past year -- but I was close to giving it just two. Nice form factor, but short battery life and limited torqueAugust 31, 2017 The size is good, I can see the foldable handle can be good for some users, and I like the torque ring. I HATE the lack of torque and the very short battery life. Not impressedJuly 3, 2017 Decent power but not nearly what most reviews said it has. There is also an annoying rubber sleeve of some sort that gets in the way of using it easily. You dont get what you pay for.March 15, 2016 The unit is okay. Gets the job done but for the price I would simply buy a black and Decker similar one. I haven't used it for more than a week and the body of the unit is peeling off! I've been using this to drill in screws for cable clips and with little use the green rubber protection grip is already peeling off and excessively. I haven't had this issue with black and Decker tools and for what I paid for this unit I expected much better quality. Especially after reading all the great reviews. Apparently there is lifetime warranty on the body so I'll have to check that out of its an option. I like that it comes with an extra batteryOctober 7, 2014 I haven't quite figured out how the torquing works, but I haven't broken or locked this up yet, as I have done with every other brand of cordless driver I've bought at this price level. I like that it comes with an extra battery, but find it annoying that it only comes with a phillips bit. Luckily, I have the bits that came with the other drivers. One thing I don't like is that there seems to be no lock on the bendy part, and it bends when I don't want it to. Hitachi DB3DL2February 4, 2014 This Model DB3DL2 cordless screwdriver should definitely be labeled as light duty. I found it to be incapable of completely screwing in #8 screws even though the holes were predrilled. It should be fine for #7 screws or smaller.I do like the light weight of this screwdriver, and the lithium batteries recharge very quickly.Compared to other 3.6-volt screwdrivers I would rate this unit much higher than all others. But for my general use, I'll find it only occasionally useful. Bottom line is for light work, I'd rate it 5-stars. For anything remotely difficult to screw down, it like all other 3.6-volt cordless screwdrivers, I can't rate it nor them any of them better than a 3-star. | | | | |

| Weak and short lifeAugust 25, 2017 Let me first mention the pros about this tool. The case, 2 batteries, the light on the tool, and its bending function. Now the cons, it looses power very fast and even with 2 batteries you will not get past 30 2" screws. Also the charger will not last more than a year it did not for me and I did not even drop or put it in any tough situations. Torque adjustmentMarch 26, 2017 I thought Hitachi would produce a better product then this screwdtiver/drill. To change the torque to the drill position, I had to use a pair of pliers. It was impossible to do it by hand. Works very nicely for the short time it worksDecember 23, 2016 Works very nicely for the short time it works. I bought a second one because I couldn't believe it would die so soon. Neither lasted more than a couple of days of light use. It seems a gear strips if you try to use it for anything besides small easily turned screws. or hard to set the torque right since it is either too weak or jumps easily. The long handle and placement of the forward ...October 16, 2016 Compared to my Black and Decker power screw driver from 1991 this is a little under powered....or hard to set the torque right since it is either too weak or jumps easily. The long handle and placement of the forward reverse switch is also not well thought out.Case with spare battery is nice but I would not buy again. no powerMay 19, 2015 This cordless screw driver has no power at all. It is okay for little things around the house like putting together something that does not weigh over 10 pounds! I bought it to put together a microwave cart (over 80 pounds solid wood), forget it! I did not even get the first screw in...Really disappointed in the weakness of this drill.... Very weak, good for watch repair!October 19, 2014 Weeeaaaaak. Seriously! This thing pretty much maxes out at opening the battery box for my kids electric toys, or removing the screws from a wall plate, etc. Very very weak. I have a 20 year old craftsman that my dad got me when I was a kid that has better ergonomics (trigger vs awkward side switch), better light, and waaaay more torque - all for the same size gun.I guess it's like they say, "they don't make'em like they used to" | | | | |

| Terrible ProductSeptember 21, 2017 Don't buy this I did and it's worthless! It's a piece of junk not Worthy to be called a screwdriver or a drill!It works great as a regular screwdriver locked in place but you can get one of those for $5 at Walmart! Buy anything but this product! Reverse stopped working!June 19, 2016 My reverse no longer works. I can't find any info to return item. I hope someone will respond back to me. Broken DesignApril 23, 2016 This tool worked great -- for an hour or so. The torque limiting mechanism failed before I had a chance to exhaust the first charge. The motor runs but the bit does not turn. Don’t waste your money on this tool. I replaced this with a Dewalt DCF680N2. It actually works. Screwdriver died after only 60 days of use, this ...March 18, 2016 Screwdriver died after only 60 days of use, this unit was clearly defective but seller only honored a 30 day window for return. We used the previous generation version of this model and it lasted 8 years. One StarSeptember 15, 2015 Its the second time I had to replace the charger and now its no longer under amazon warranty Clutch failedAugust 5, 2013 After using only about 40-50 times, the clutch failed rendering the tool useless.Additional poor design issues:1. Light does not point at the screw head2. Handle does not lock so it tends to fold up when manually turning screw.3. Location and orientation of switch makes it awkward to use. | | | | |
