Was looking for a masonry drill bit in Maddington WA, when I came across the CLEARANCE, a beautiful asian word. Ozito Impact Drill Driver was $100 now $55 and screwdriver set was $50 now $30. Perfect for Father's Day gift.

only one trolley, lol.
The impact driver has "2 batteries included, one with built in flash light" … Now that's innovation!
OP, your username almost tells a life story.
30yr old stingy asian ?
I've seen the lock-n-load driver at my local Bunnings before on the clearance table. Didn't seem that great quality (and I have a few Ozito tools so I can't be that picky lol).
I am doing some decking at the weekend, will this be a good tool for all those screws I have to do?
Edit-assuming I can get it in NSW.
Depends how much youre doing. Impact drills are very good in general for screws/decking, don't need as much down force yourself. But remember Ozito is a DIY brand.
I'll be doing about 1200 screws, definitely only DIY I'm far from being a pro.
It's been hit and miss with some of the ozito branded tools I have owned.
Go for it, if they break you can refund or replace. I had a big sanding job and used an ozito belt sander, I had to replace it once and then it died just before the end of the job. So I got a refund, and job done.
Just to be clear, this wasn't deliberate by me but just how it turned out.
Do you need to drill the hole and then screw the decking screw in?
We used two different drills for decking because it was much faster.@Suckerzpayretail: yeah I bought an ozito Reciprocating saw that I took back twice due to different problems, I got my money back the second time and bought a ryobi one which has been much better.
My question was more about if this is a suitable tool for decking screws rather than the quality of the tool.
What's the difference between an impact driver and a drill driver?
@ATangk: yes I have a cordless drill for pre drilling and I was going to use a corded drill for screwing but wasn't sure if I should get an impact driver or drill driver instead m
@onetwothree:
Actually, 12V isnt a lot. Decking screws are rather large so you might not get enough torque out of these Ozito's…
@onetwothree: I can't comment on the power of 12v being able to do the job, but definitely go for an impact driver. I built a deck with some Ryobi gear and the ability to drill a pilot hole with the drill, and then drive the screw with the impact driver was a massive time-saver. It honestly amazes me just how easy it is to drive screws with the impact driver, as the torque is imparted on the screw, not your hand. They make a hell of a racket though, so hearing protection is a must.
@onetwothree: what ebosh said 👍
I have a Milwaukee 12v kit and is is great, but the less capacity batteries struggle sometimes. The 3ah batteries rock on.
Edit: the drill can fit probably up to 13mm, where as the other takes a hexadecimal bit. You can get drill bits with a hex end.
They make a hell of a racket though, so hearing protection is a must.
The DeWalt three speed 18V impact drivers have a maximum output of 96 dB(A) so for decking that's predrilled it's unlikely you're going to do any damage to your hearing even into hardwood.
If I was in a concealed space like a cupboard or small room I would be inclined to use hearing protection.
these are 12v … i would not recommend. go for 18v
Checked Thursday 17/8. Lidcombe store has Impact Driver at $100, guy checked their system and says Ashfield store shows the same.
would this be good enough for RC stuff? you know, mainly plastic or soft aluminum ?
How many are you brodening?
