Milwaukee made three electric M12 1/4" hex screwdrivers:
2401-20: this deal; 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: 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.
If you have the need for lighter torque precision screw driving operations it's a pretty good tool for what it does and the fact that it comes with two M12 batteries and a charger makes this a pretty good deal.
My favorite tool for precise screw driving jobs is the Worx WX240L
https://www.amazon.com/WORX-WX240...B08FDBV
It's got pretty good torque strength for a 4V rechargable screwdriver. Other pluses are small form factor, uses USB-C for recharging, has torque control (three different settings: level 1 22 inch-lb (2.5 Nm); level 2 37 inch-lb (4.2 Nm); level 3 44 inch-lb (5.0 Nm)), forward and reverse controls, battery level LD, a 2 LED headlight (which could be brighter IMHO), magnetic bit holder and comes is a small carrying case with bits (bit number is dependant on the kit you purchase). Finally you can also use this like a classic screwdriver if you require more manual torque to finish the job.
There are two kits for the Worx screwdriver:
- WX240L (with 12 bits)
- WX240 (with 24 bits)
The WX240 has double the bits vs. the WX240L and is harder to find in the States but you can purchase it from Bangood for $40: https://www.google.com/shopping/p...O4Q9pwGCA0
Sorry to thread highjack but its a great little screwdriver that has many uses and since it has a built in rechargeable battery (18650) you don't need to worry about embracing a tool battery system to use it.
Here's a good vid review of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xai0bR4
Set the clutch right and no worries.

I like it, though my screwdriver is my go to for "normal" jobs, due to the weight, size and chuck. But if the installation driver was all I owned, I'd be plenty happy
For most users, the 1.5s will work perfectly and rarely need recharging.

Lots of users, ya I suppose the 1.5 are fine for a 10 min job around the house. But then again this tool isn't really useful for professional use so the 1.5 are adequate.

If I remember it correctly, Milwaukee put the forward/reverse button on the top of the installation tool which made very little sense since you'd be most likely using it one handed in very cramped environments.

And yes, I own this and it has very good torque for its size and voltage.

Versus the WX240 the WX255 is:
BTW, if you want to get this even cheaper here's a rebrand of the WORX WX240 which can be had for around $20 AC: https://www.amazon.com/MXTOVEL-El...6878&psc=1
Not sure what kind of warranty you get with the MXTovel brand, but with Worx you get a 3 year warranty.

It's much more powerful than some folks here are making it out to be. It can easily throw in deck screws, and the clutch does allow it to do something basic like ikea assembly.
That said, none (I mean NONE) of my 1/4 hex bits lock into place correctly - including the Milwaukee brand ones. There is so much slop with the chuck, it's very very annoying and probably I have to take it back.
EDIT> I see a downvote. You can go read the Amazon reviews for other people reporting the exact same thing I am (with a video) - this tool does not hold bits securely. It's not a pro grade tool by any means, if you are cool with your hits moving in and out by 1/4-1/2 inch randomly, go for it.
