Dewalt’s factory reconditioned DW920K-2R 7.2-volt heavy duty cordless screwdriver kit
If you are going to buy one cordless screwdriver, make it the Dewalt factory reconditioned DW920K-2R 7.2-volt heavy duty cordless screwdriver kit. Why you ask?
1. It's reconditioned, which means it's cheaper. And as I've mentioned here before - there's absolutely nothing wrong with reconditioned Dewalt tools - as long as you don't mind some minor aesthetic flaws. But often, they don't even have that. They work just as well as brand new tools, but you pay less.
2. Dewalt is awesome.
3. Variable speed and reversing trigger switch provides 0-500 rpm for fastening and pre-drilling into wood, plastic, and light-gauge metal. Since you have control over the speed and power, you can use this tool for a wide range of tasks, from delicate to heavy duty - extremely handy and vesatile. That's why if you are going to own just one cordless screwdriver, make sure it's this one.
4. Awesome power to weight ratio.
5. Dual position handle (in line or pistol grip) for easy maneuverability.
6. Quick and easy screwdriver bit change due to quick release hex-shank chuck.
7. Nicad batteries charge in an hour.
For these reasons, this cordless screwdriver kit is sure to become your number one used tool. The kit includes the screwdriver, one hour charger, 2 7.2 volt batteries, 2 screwdriver bits and the kit case. I've found it hard to find any bad reviews about this tool, although I did read that one person claimed his reconditioned tool lasted a year only. But that was one out of many. I have my reservations about this though. I own some Dewalt reconditioned tools and honestly, I forget they're reconditioned and they have never failed me. But I treat them right and maintain them, which is important for any tool's lifespan.
Anyway - as I mentioned previously, if you are going to have just one cordless screwdriver around, I am definitely recommending the Dewalt factory reconditioned DW920K-2R 7.2-volt heavy duty cordless screwdriver kit. It's easy to handle, it's quite light for the amount of power, it has variable power to suit a variety of tasks ... what more could you need? And all at a bargain price for a good quality Dewalt tool.

Factory Reconditioned Dewalt Cordless Impact Wrench Kit
Today, I’d like to feature an awesome factory reconditioned Dewalt cordless impact wrench kit. You may remember how I talked about why Dewalt factory reconditioned cordless power tools are a fantastic option to buying new tools.
Available on Amazon for close to $100 off the new price, the factory reconditioned Dewalt DW059K-2R 18-volt ½-inch cordless impact wrench kit is a super deal. The kit includes the wrench, 2 batteries, a charger and a case.
It is important to remember that like with any battery powered tool, the NICAD batteries need to be kept charged – otherwise this tool is no use in an emergency. But once charged, the batteries last quite long. The power of course cannot be compared to a corded tool – but it is still quite impressive for a cordless tool.
If you read the reviews, most people seemed quite pleased with their factory reconditioned Dewalt cordless impact wrench. I think for the price, it’s definitely worth considering.
Next time, a cordless screwdriver review – Dewalt’s factory reconditioned DW920K-2R 7.2-volt heavy duty cordless screwdriver kit. Sounds good, right?
