How to choose a suitable electric screwdriver

As the saying goes, “If you want to do something good, you must first sharpen your tools.”. Although a small electric screwdriver is quite ordinary, there is also some knowledge on how to choose and use it correctly.

1. According to the needs, distinguish between home use and professional use. Most electric screwdrivers are designed for professionals, and when choosing, it is important to distinguish between professional and general home use electric screwdrivers. The difference between professional and general household electric scooters is usually in power. Professional electric scooters have a higher power to facilitate professionals in reducing workload. General household electric scooters, due to their smaller engineering and relatively smaller workload, do not require a large input power.
