User Comments about the Bosch PS40-2A 12 Volt Max Lithium-Ion Impact Driver

I'd get the longer bits, to keep from having to use an adapter. Very nice when working in dark places. But the size may be worth it. It's very small has a nice charger, spare battery and gun in one case. I haven't used this enough to review the functionality of the tool.


I'll have to update this review after I have some more time to play with it.I was surprised that there is a built-in flashlight on the drill head. This is the first time I've used an impact driver, so it's a little different than the drill I'm used to lugging around. It's a bit odd hearing the clicking as the clutch engages much sooner than I'm used to with a regular drill clutch. If you lightly squeeze the trigger the light will come on without engaging the driver. Once you get used to the noise, it does do the job well, although for screws in wood, it's not as fast as a drill.



It will drive screws THROUGH whatever, and thin soft wood cracks & splinters like candy. Oopsy.Pro's may want to go with the Makita BTD142HW 18V for a job site, but this is 2/3 the strength (more that enough), 2/3 the weight, and can be found for 2/3 the price(or less). Bang. Bang. Cool.THIS is the tool they warn you about with the "torque settings" (which I never had a problem with set on MAX) adjustments on other tools. This is the smallest & yet the most powerful driver I've ever used.


Floor fixes & bathtub support replacement. Bang. A light touch does most jobs fine. Interestingly they come OUT even faster, shockingly fast, like a 2 1/2 inch screw comes out in a second. It jams 'em right in.I'm just a DIYer but some recent big projects needed lots of screwing into 2x4s. When that impacter hits - it's noisy.


Nicely rounded out specs. And the screws go in FAST.


Most of their products cost 2X more than any other brand (appliances to power tools). I've removed screws and bolts that my 18V drill couldn't. This impact driver is small yet has a lot of torque. When you hear the name Bosch, you think of cha-ching. However, there is a reason for this. Good buy. Their products are the best you can buy.
