Here it is. The PS10 is one of the handiest, most powerful little drivers we’ve laid hands on. It’s impressively powered by "litheon," which Bosch calls "the industry’s most advanced lithium-ion battery technology." We can attest that there’s absolutely no lag in power, and the run time is great – more than 100 drives per charge. Recharge time is just 30 minutes, so you should never have to wait for a battery.

The best feature, of course, is the clever design. Instead of a pistol grip like most drivers, this one has a sturdy tool body and an articulating head that has five detents, letting you set it however you need it. The head itself is just 3-1/2 inches long, so it’s no struggle at all to slip it into tight spaces such as in between studs, under-sink cabinets, between joists and other tricky situations. If it’s length you need, just flip the head to the vertical position and it’s literally like having a screwdriver at your fingertips; it’s not quite a foot long at its full length.

It uses ¼-inch hex bits, and they’re easy to change. We would have liked to see some on-board bit storage, but that’s a small point. The two-finger trigger is comfortable, and it’s quite sensitive, so take care not to strip your fasteners while you’re on the learning curve.

In all, we’re really pleased with this little driver, and we think there’s a place for it in just about every toolbox. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste

I am a licensed electrician and utilize this screwdriver for almost everything. The cheapest place that I have found it is toolup.com. The batteries last forever and the tool's torque is phenomenal. I used to carry my DeWalt stuff with me for job estimates but now I carry this little tool because of its flexibility, power, and battery reserve.

I purchased this a little over a month ago to use at work (A/V installs and mobile electronics). It has more power than I expected, and good battery life. I am very pleased with it.

The 10.8 volts delivers what you expect. The feel of the grip and the ergonomics are excellent, as is the pivoting head that gives you the needed flexibility depending on the situation at hand. Overall, I'm very pleased with this driver. The caveats (probably kept me from awarding fice stars): 1) As indicated in other reviews, the torque setting doesn't seem to affect the overall torque delivered to the bit as one might expect; 2) there seems to be, under some conditions, a delay between depressing the trigger and the actual rotation of the bit. It doesn't in any way substitute for more powerful cordless tools for driving fasterners, but it comes in handy for tight spots and light duty applications, in my opinion. I'm unsure is this is by design or perhaps operator error, but it's not a primary consideration for me at this point.Overall, this is another great Bosch product.

a drill for tight spaces. This is a great product. I haven't had extended time with it. I just hope the Bosch name doesn't let me down. but on first blush it's designed to be exactly what it looks like.

The batteries are long long lasting. No switching bits. Especially those vix bits for hinges. But when I have lots of screws or small pilot holes to drill, this baby is handy. I've been able to drill and drive in some tight spaces with this drill, it's great for cabinets. I can keep my regular drill with a pilot bit in the holster, and I keep the driver in the Bosch. I initially had buyers remorse on this drill when I saw the little impact driver that Bosch sells.

When I need to drill holes, I'll pick up my Panasonic 12v. The rotating head is nice, though I rarely use it in the straight up position. But then I started using it. A very good value for the money. Great power for it's size. Mostly I use it at the 90 degree position. Yes, I will be buying the little impact driver that Bosch makes, it's supposed to be a great tool and the cool thing is that both tools will use the same batteries and chargers.

I like to hang it on my belt using one of those clip on tool hooks.
