I did consider buying one of these recently after Nick "boy-band" Bundy showed it on his channel, but the cost was prohibitive and I didn't like the idea of having to change the seal thingies that come with it. I do carry an electric screwdriver in my toolbox: a Bosch one, but it doesn't get regular use. These things come into their own when you have a load of accessories to zip up such as on second fix or during an EICR as although it's not much quicker to use such a tool (and is often slower and fiddlier with my Bosch), it saves a bit of wrist-wear, and my wrists see enough action outside of my time on the tools.

You wouldn't be putting screws in that fast all day by hand, where as the electric driver can do that all day every day.

It’s the only electrician screwdriver I use now. Upto the point of torquing where I use a variable torque wiha driver it does save the wrists. It’s insulated properties help. Wiha have listened and updated the motor it has two power settings not just 0.4nm but to 1nm. Called the wiha speed e2. Wiha could have just put a very powerful motor in and helped you torqued it up to whatever torque setting you wanted however using a motor driven screw driver to get you to a torque screw setting say at 3-5nm would be problematic you need to go much slower to avoid it slipping and ruining the screw head. I would have like a variable torque setting range built in and avoid the use of the torque adaptors which just add cost if you get the full set. Yes it’s expensive, yes it can be improved and has been and it does take time to get used to it but once you do you it does help reduce wrist RSI. Moreover you can still use it as a manual screwdriver for the final few tightening turns whee going slower is important to avoid slipping and damaging the screw head.

Funny video lad s. Hope you don’t mind me saying ,it’s a pitty you didn’t read about the reason for the product protection of 0.4 Nm and and manual up to 8 Nm .I would hate to see your mate after doing a consumer unit like that. Very professional I must say . May be have a look at the speedE s specifications and or talk to someone who knows about it ,look forward to seeing the consumer unit demonstration I hope thats in a real life situation not flat on a desk . Question is will you use a torque driver ? Or you could demonstrate on a factory panel board with 1000 s of screws,

1:35 This power connector have a shield at the EU adaptor. So I am shure do you can put in an UK adaptor, or an US adaptor or an Asian adaptor. Since the european regularies from 1995 all electric products must have the correct connectors exact for this country - so for UK an UK-connector. So most EU products have a 2way EU-connector and a 3way UK-connector for the power changer.

wiha tools and service are both crap. I bought over 500 of their t handles torx without any problems then about 4 months ago the handles all started to crack. My customers all over the world that I sell to complained if you have a tee handle look at the hole in the side and you may very well see a crack all the way thru towards the middle .5 calls and 3 emails has not gotten any response at all from wiha. New video coming to show how bad they have become .Kc tools company and at leas ta dozen others have all dropped them from their catalogue due to poor quality.
