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

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 did install an entire roof with the milwakee putting the OSB down, so its not terrible. It may have the advantage of a belt clip vs the bosh does not. I did however get stuck in a bind recently without power and found the M12 batteries quite useful for lighting and charging so if you have other M12 tools, not a terrible pickup.
Here's a couple nice sets at HD if you want to buy from the same place as the screwdriver:

This isn't meant for drill driving per say. It's a screwdriver in power drill form so it's main use is for delicate wood working where power is not a necessity. This is perfect for furniture assembly aka IKEA lol.
I love this thing and will reach for it 90% of the time. If I need to drill then I grab my M12 fuel hammer drill😀

The Bosch kit has a drill with normal chuck that has adjustment that does the same thing to be a screw driver and is noticably lighter. You can also use a hex loading bit as well. The battery feels like it lasts longer than the milwakee.
If you are looking to get into the M12 line or already have this is a good price for this drill.

Yes I was using the impact driver. The Bosch also charges faster and noticeably lighter. I am comparing this deal to the Bosch kit because it's similar in price and used for similiar actions. The fuel you mentioned is probably more like $150? I don't doubt it's impressive and strong, sounds like stronger than I would need.
