Bosch 23618 Impactor 18-Volt Ni-Cad Cordless Impact Driver Review

This is the top of the line impact driver from Bosh and it has worked great! I was able to drive a 3" drywall screws through a 2/4, sheetrock and into the stud without a pilot hole and very little resistance or cam out. I really like the fact that the torque is transferred to the screw and not my wrist and arm! I have gone back and tightened lag screws with no problem...this thing will actually bury the washer in the wood if not too careful!

Skil 2346-01 3.6-Volt IXO2 Power Portable Screwdriver Review

Skil 2346-01 3.6-Volt IXO2 Power Portable Screwdriver
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The product works extremely well. It is great for small projects that do not require a lot of tork, such as putting in electrical outlet screws. The newly added feature of the light is a great benefit. Amazon does have it listed by the wrong Brand name, it is not a Bosch name but a Skil brand name. Bosch owns Skil so that must be where the confusion comes from. I bought it becuase of the light because I had the original one without the light and wanted that benefit. I highly recomended it for light duty work.

The NEW iXO2 Palm-Sized Cordless Screwdriver has even more advanced features to help you get the job done right. Because of it uses lithium-ion power, iXO2 stays charged for up to 18 months, so it's always charged and ready to use for those screwdriving tasks in and around the house. Whether assembling furniture, installing blinds, or tightening drawer pulls, iXO2 has plenty of power but is lightweight and fits comfortably in your palm. The built-in work light makes it even easier to use in those hard-to-reach areas. iXO2 can even be stored right on the charger without memory effect, extending the life of the tool! This versatile tool is a must-have for any household and makes a great gift for anyone on your list.
Innovative Features and BenefitsThe SKIL iXO2 comes equipped with a built-in work light to illuminate dimly lit areas like inside cabinets, above a false ceiling, or behind furniture. It also features an easy-to-read LED charge indicator located on the top of the tool that informs the user when it needs to be charged. Additionally, the 1/4-inch hex chuck is now magnetized, ensuring that bits stay in place.
SKIL also added functionality to the cradle charger. The charger now provides convenient built-in bit storage, as well as a fully removable bit set to make it a functional storage station as well. It can even be mounted to a wall for added convenience and flexibility. The SKIL SmartCharge System charger automatically manages the flow of power to the battery, providing temperature and overcharge protection, allowing users to store tools on the cradle as an added benefit. This feature has earned the ixo2 battery charger the Energy Star Compliance certification.
"As the manufacturer who introduced the first lithium ion screwdriver to the North American DIY market, we not only understand the technology but most importantly, understand the end user," said Dean Peterson, product development and marketing director at SKIL Power Tools. "Some of the main hurdles for occasional tool users are the weight and bulkiness of the tool and the fact that cordless tools don't have a charge when the user needs them. With the SKIL iXO, we created a non-intimidating, lightweight, easy-to-handle screwdriver that is always ready for the job, even after months of non-use. With SKIL iXO2, we increased functionality by adding a light for dark spaces, an on-tool fuel gauge, and even more convenient bit storage. It is all part of SKIL'S on-going commitment to help do-it-yourselfers achieve home project success."
The SKIL iXO2 still boasts user-friendly design features from the first generation. The forward/reverse indicator clearly shows users the direction the bit is spinning, and the ergonomic soft-grip handle offers increased comfort.

Schlage F40VORB605 Orbit Privacy Knob, Bright Brass Review

Schlage F40VORB605 Orbit Privacy Knob, Bright Brass
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have been searching my local hardware and home improvement stores for these Orbit series knobs for the past few weeks. It seems as though new styles have replaced this model, which has been around for at least 10 to 15 years now. Luckily Amazon.com had them in stock so I quickly ordered up a set. It installs in just minutes (providing your door is pre-drilled with standard holes) and it looks and feels great. The locking mechanism works flawlessly as well. I have the Orbit series knobs installed on every door in my house, including these bed/bath locking knobs, the household entry lockset series, and the basic passageway (non-locking) knobs. Many of them have been in place and working perfectly for over 10 years now. There may be a lot of newer styles available, but I prefer the fat, perfectly round look and feel of the Orbit series. You really can't beat the heavy duty design of the Orbit Series Schlage door knobs. Hurry up and get them while you can. Thanks Amazon for stocking this great product.

Fisher & Paykel : OR36LDBGX1 36 Pro-Style Gas Range 5 Sealed Burners Review

Fisher and Paykel : OR36LDBGX1 36 Pro-Style Gas Range 5 Sealed Burners
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
It's a pretty stove, and works well except for the center burner. The smaller of the two burners will not light, and hasn't since the second week we had the stove. Dealing with Fisher Paykel service is like trying to get something done in a 3rd world country. WHO DO I BRIBE TO GET SOMETHING DONE?
Two different service people have been out FIVE TIMES and they haven't DONE ANYTHING YET! They look at the stove, adjust the flame height and go away. It still does NOT LIGHT. I got frustrated and talked with the owner of the service company. We agreed on what the problem could be. He ordered two parts and had them sent to me. When his service guy got here, he said that the Fisher Paykel Service Manager had called him and told him that they would not pay for the parts. The service guy, who is very nice and apologetic about all this by the way, took them back with him.
So I called Fisher Paykel yet again. This is the tenth or fifteenth call, each one over an hour. I got through to a 'customer representative manager' named Paul (may I have your last name please? No.) at extension 20378. He told me that he had no idea why his American Service Manager had done such a thing but he would get back to me tomorrow. Can I talk to the service manager (Tod Fielding) myself? No. Can I talk to a technician myself? No. Is there ANY way I can get my stove fixed? No. He'll talk to Tod and call me back.
That was over a week ago. I haven't had time to spend another hour on the phone since, so I haven't called him.
It's a lovely stove, but you'd be a fool to buy one.

Nite Ize NIQ-07-AA Multi-Function Push Button On/Off IQ Switch for AA Mini Flashlight Review

Nite Ize NIQ-07-AA Multi-Function Push Button On/Off IQ Switch for AA Mini Flashlight
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The switch works as advertised. I couldn't get it to work correctly at first, but I switched to a fresh set of batteries and everything worked fine. The time to auto shutoff wasn't exactly 14.5 minutes, but it was close enough. The 2 strobe settings and the reduced power modes are reasonably easy to set. The red led "location" light is quite bright, and assuming it isn't accidentally covered will help you locate it in the dark. The switch makes the flashlight slightly longer.
The only reason I didn't give this 5 stars is that I can HEAR a high pitched whine from the switch. If you don't have "dog" hearing you should be fine.

EagleTac P20C2 300 Lumens Cree XP-G R5 LED Flashlight Review

EagleTac P20C2 300 Lumens Cree XP-G R5 LED Flashlight
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is the brightest smallest flashlight possible. It seems to burn a hole in the night but is thin, barely wider in most spots that the battery and only slightly longer than the palm of your hand. The light output is adjustable to save batteries when full out is not required but it is a little tricky to get to the lowest output setting which is a little too minimal for me. The batteries are expensive when bought by the pair but the bulk 12 or 20 packs really lower the per unit price. Lastly I think you could drive a Hummer over it. It is very well built. I keep it on my motorcycle for general and emerg. uses and it fits under the rear seat of a Ducati, no small feat.
