Best Power Screwdriver Brand? Could a $20 Driver Take Down a $139 Unit? Let’s Find Out!

There is most certainly a wide variety of tools on the market for just about any job. From general tools all the way down to the specialty units that cost a little bit more, there are generally a wide variety of companies willing to produce them. After all, customers are willing to shovel over pretty good money for a decent set of tools. With this massive demand and people ready to open their wallets, lots of companies are trying to get in on the action.

However, sometimes, we could be left to wonder if those cheaper tools are really any good. In this particular example, we check out compact screwdriver brands that will help out with those quick jobs. On one side of the spectrum, we find a unit that comes in at about $20 for a Black & Decker Unit. The Black & Decker name is pretty respected in the industry so could the high end of the spectrum at $139 from Milwaukee be all that much better?

Fortunately, for situations like this, we have the likes of the Project Farm YouTube channel to really dig into the concept and dissect it. The reviews and comparisons done by the channel are usually pretty in-depth. This time, we find everything from which brand has the most torque, which is the fastest under load, and which demonstrates the most endurance of the bunch. Project Farm even breaks out the decibel meter to see which one makes the most sound of the group.

By following along with the video below, a review of these tools that compares one to the next shows us who is truly king. At the end of the day, each one has strong points but we would venture to say that, in certain areas, it’s simply not necessary to spend the most that you possibly can. There are situations where going for the high-end unit can definitely be worth it. This time, we get the opportunity to find out if that’s the case for compact screwdrivers.
