Skil Twist 2.0 Cordless Screwdriver Review

You’re not still completing all your projects with manual screwdrivers, are you? They have their place, but powered options such as the Skil Twist 2.0 cordless screwdriver can save time and frustration on a wide range of jobs. We’ve been getting to know this tool and are sharing our experience so you can decide if it’s right for you. Skil Twist 2.0 Cordless Screwdriver Design If you’re familiar with cordless screwdrivers, you’ll immediately notice the bulbous section near the driver collet. One of the things that sets this model apart is its ability to pivot and lock into 22.5° and 45° angles. It’s a feature that’s incredibly helpful when you’re working with fasteners in awkward or tight spaces. Combined with a 6-inch bit or extension, it makes assembly jobs much less frustrating. To pivot the tip, press and hold the button on the left side, click the tip to the angle you want, and release the button. One fun addition is the window view that lets you see the driver mechanism spinning. With the Skil logo circling the center, it adds a bit of interest and there’s a better than average chance you’re going to watch it spin at some point. The collet is a magnetic 1/4-inch hex. Any standard bits fit, allowing you to use existing bits you might already have or to grab the ones you need for the type of projects you frequently work on. Using the Skil Twist 2.0 Cordless Screwdriver You control the forward and reverse directions with the buttons on top of the tool. Press up to move the bit at 220 RPM forward, or back to reverse it. While you’re working, an LED light illuminates the work area in front of you. It stays on for 10 seconds after you let go of the switch in case you need to take a closer look. Going along with that speed, there’s 22 in-lbs of torque, and that’s a bit more than a lot of the competitors out there. It’s helpful for many standard size screws, but can be a bit much for switch plates, RC and drone assembly, and other small fasteners. When you need less torque, press the button near the base of the tool to cycle through three torque levels. If you want to lock the screwdriver and use it manually, press and hold the same button until you see the light turn red. The screwdriver uses a single 4V lithium-ion battery for power. It’s an internal power supply that recharges using any USB-C cable, and Skil includes one in the package. Skil Twist 2.0 Cordless Screwdriver Price With a rechargeable power supply, design, and selectable torque, you might be surprised to find that the retail price of this screwdriver is $29.99. There’s also an option that includes a 28-piece bit set for $39.99. Considering the price of a good screwdriver set can be in the same range, it’s an excellent value. Look for it at your favorite Skil retailer beginning September 15, 2023. The Bottom Line The Skil Twist 2.0 Cordless Screwdriver is one of the handiest tools you can add to your toolbox for a wide range of light-duty screwdriving jobs. The possibilities are near endless: IT, furniture assembly, RC and drone repair, electrical installation… and the list goes on and on. Skil’s attractively low price tag makes this a low-risk purchase, so give it a shot—we bet you’ll be reaching for the Skil Twist 2.0 more than you might think! Buy at Amazon
