Who says voltage equals power? Not Bosch, anymore…especially since the advent of Lithium-Ion. Using the newest battery technology, they’ve created the Impactorâ„¢, a 10.8-volt fastening driver (Model PS40-2) with 60 percent more torque than a regular 18-volt.
It’s also six inches tall, six and a half inches long and weighs 2.2 pounds, making it, according to Bosch, the world’s smallest and most lightweight impact driver.
Eighty inch-pounds of torque come out of the Impactor. It also has a hex quick-change chuck for changing quickly between the drill and the driver functions, and a variable speed trigger for the tool’s different applications. An LED worklight in the Impactor’s nose lights up the work area.
The PS40 has a suggested retail price of $199.
