For its size, this cordless has a mighty lot of torque. It easily converts from a standard straight grip to a pistol grip, which we found to be more comfortable. It drives and backs out screws with the best of them, and it drills, too, with six clutch settings (only six, you say? Remember, it's only 2.4 volts) We think it's amazingly strong for its size, packing 26-inch-pounds of torque. And we like the choice of speeds--200 or 400 rpm--depending on whether your work is delicate or difficult. The battery recharges fast; it only takes an hour. Since it comes with No. 1 and No. 2 Phillips bits, it's ready to tackle any household chore from electronics to woodworking and basic repairs. It's a great little worker.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Get the Milwaukee. Same screwdriver. Better warranty! January 13, 2005
I. Leong (Taylors, SC United States)

I compared this Panasonic screwdriver with the Milwaukee 2.4 volt 6547-22. It's basically the same screwdriver. The Milwaukee is also made in Japan.
With the Milwaukee, you get two batteries, a fitted case, and three bits, including a 1/4" socket adapter and drill bits. It even comes with a 1/4" Jacobs chuck that fits the driver's 1/4" hex socket.
The Milwaukee has a five (5) year warranty on everything except the batteries. The batteries are warrantied for one year.
Eveyything is true from the other reviews on this tool and especially the Milwaukee. Further, the red body of the Milwaukee is less likely to get lost than the black Panasonic at the work site.
 Best Tool Ever Invented! January 24, 2001
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have owned this tool for about 6 years, and my only complaint is that I've used it so much that I need a new battery for it, and I'm having trouble finding one. Make sure you get at least two or even three batteries for it. You'll be amazed at how much work you can do with this tool. This was the first battery-powered tool I ever bought, and although I now have a more powerful cordless drill for bigger jobs, I still come back to this one time and again for small jobs. It is light weight and its ability to bend in the middle make it work in almost any circumstance and give it great balance. It takes up almost no space in the kitchen drawer.There are so many different kinds of hex shaft accessories that you can use with this tool. I've used the tool with nut drivers and drill bits. I even have a small hex-shaft drill chuck that further increases the usefulness of this thing. If you have a bigger cordless drill (12-18 volt), get one of these too. For smaller jobs you will experience much less wrist fatigue using this tool. Gone are the days when a small household project left me with blisters in the middle of my palms from using a hand screwdriver. I highly recommend this tool.

Awesome. Long battery life and powerful. Been using this product for years and I'm completely satisfied. "It's not 18 volts... it's only 2.4 volts, sounds too wimpy and too expensive". Wrong. Try it, You'll like it!
A Great Lightweight Cordless Screwdriver November 28, 2001
Ken (Livermore, US, Canada)

I've owned my Panasonic 2.4v screwdriver for about ten years, albeit unused for the past 5 or so due to lack of fresh NiCd batteries. Anyway, the EY503B was the best lightweight cordless screwdriver you could buy back around 1991, two speed with torque clutch. I used it professionally daily back then and it's versatility and performance always made my job easier. I recently bought fresh batteries and look forward to putting it back into my tool bag.
