Cordless screwdrivers are a wonderful invention, but some jobs around the house still require that extra control a conventional screwdriver can provide. The 3.6-volt, three-position Black & Decker 9078 screwdriver combines the best of both. As a power screwdriver, the unit operates at 180 rpm and offers up to 40 in./lbs. of torque, with 24 settings. A torque control collar allows the operator to match the torque to the job, reducing unwanted strips. A pistol grip and three-position handle allow the screwdriver to fit into some pretty tight spaces, while a spindle lock (located on the forward/reverse switch) allows the operator to use the unit as a conventional, manual screwdriver when necessary. This is especially helpful when starting and finishing screws. The screwdriver comes with five double-ended bits. Each locks securely into place and is easy to remove. The handle is also easy to adjust with just the push of a button. All in all it's a pretty handy little tool.--Carl Thress

 Excellent Product August 24, 2008
It just worked perfectly.
Make sure you charge it before use. I used it before charging and felt like all 24 speeds are about the same....but after charging one can see there is a big difference between 24 different speeds.
 cordless screwdriver August 23, 2008
I am very happy with mt Black & Decker 9078. If I could change anything I would pit the charging cord at the end of the unit.
 Slower than molasses July 7, 2008
It's slow in every way possible......charging the battery takes a good half a day and using it as a screwdriver makes you want to just use your philips instead.
very useful June 5, 2008
very useful for outdoor or indoor work where a long electric cord is a nuisance.
Can't replace battery April 22, 2008
I bought this just over two years ago. I really liked the unit but like a lot of other users have said, the battery doesn't stay charged for over a couple of weeks. But you can't use it while it is plugged in and it takes too long to wait for it to charge up when you need it.
Anyway, the battery is completely dead now and I cannot find a replacement anywhere. The sad thing is that you can take the battery pack out of it very easily.
I really HATE to throw away anything because the battery dies! So much for Earth Day. All the landfills are full of good working equipment.
