Milwaukee M12 Fuel Screwdriver - 4.0ah battery - $139
$139.00
$286.00
I just ordered as they have been unobtanium in a lot of places. It's a great deal if you're in the ecosystem and don't need a charger. I'm upgrading from the brushed version, which has been a great tool.

According to Grainger, I'll let you know on Friday 😂
Not as much about additional power as it is about higher rpm's. Long machine screws and other fasteners make the speed appealing. And the great clutch makes the speed very manageable.

Milwaukee made three electric M12 screwdrivers:
2401-20: single speed; first screwdriver model released; lightest model; 175lbs of torque; least powerful screwdriver used for very precise work. Many complained that this screwdriver provided too little torque; this model goes on sale a lot
2402-20: (this tool) 2-speed gearbox brushless (fuel version); heaviest model; 325lbs of torque which many indicated was "too much tool" to be used as a screwdriver
2406-20: 2-speed gearbox; 275lbs of torque; last model released; this model rarely goes on sale; is considered a good hybrid between the precision of 2401 and the power of 2402. From what I've read most consider this the preferred M12 screwdriver to get.
Due to the increase in torque with this tool, you'd probably be better off and have more verstility with just getting the M12 fuel driver.
Still, not a bad price with a 4Ah M12 battery thrown in.
Can the 2402-20 model be the equivalent lower force tool on speed 1 setting with the clutch set to low

Was thinking about selling the 2401 and upgrading to the 2402 but sounds like I should keep both.

The screwdriver also comes with a clutch ring and has 18 different clutch settings. Each setting gradually increases the torque for the driver. Generally tool manufacturers do not post how a specific clutch setting equals a specific torque force so you'll need to experiment with your screws and materials to figure out which clutch setting allows you to screw your fastener into your materials with the least amount of torque so you minimize potential damage to your screw head.
In your setting (attaching/removing license plates and surround sound speakers) I would think you'd want to dial the clutch setting down to a very low setting and I'd think you'd want a lot of control so your speed setting should be set at "1."
The improvement of 2402 vs 2401 is that 2402 is brushless (so more power and more efficient) and has two speed settings and more clutch settings (18 vs 16). In your situation I don't think there would be any reason to "upgrade" to the 2402 model.
No step up in speed at any clutch setting. Full chooch right from the gate! I'm gonna love this thing for trim out.
