Comment:
I have a cordless Dewalt for heavy projects, but I almost always reach first for the B&D VPX. The quick change chuck is great for switching between drilling and then driving. The 7.2v Li-Ion batteries are lightweight and last a long time between charges. Mine came in a kit with a recip saw and a bright LED flashlight. I use the flashlight very frequently and it is really handy. The saw is so-so, but does work.

Comment:
This is not a powerful driver, but it doen't have to be. It is a nice compliment to a more powerful drill. I use it to put together home furniture, and other small assembly projects. It's more convenient than using a bulky, more powerful drill for small things. It drills as well as drive, so it's great for hanging pictures on some hard to do surfaces. It is not for large projects, but does have it's uses. I would recommend it.
