To snip from one of my longer detailed comments from last year comparing OP WX240 to WX242:
The adjustable clutch on the WX242 lets you set it at level 1 (0.15 nm = 1.3 in-lb) for precision work (e.g., it won't strip laptop case screws or screws into RC car plastic) or set it at the higher torque level 7 for 5 nm (44 in-lb) for tougher jobs (or several settings in between). The OP Worx 240's lowest setting is 22 in-lb (2.5 nm), which still might be too much for some small screws, especially into plastic. The WX240 is also 5 nm max but has a smaller battery and lower RPM than the WX242. The torque test guy never tried the WX242. There are some foreign youtube reviewers who talk about the WX242 in great detail (yay for auto translate captions). It's a nice upgrade vs. the WX240 and Denali. Sure, it's like 50% more, but it's only $10 more. WX242 gets you better ring light, higher RPM (320), lots of bits (even precision ones), a nice 2ah battery, a better bit holder in the end than just a magnet (this prevents the bit from falling out if you just inserted a grippy screw), a "brake" that stops the spinning faster than the WX240 that keeps moving when you release the button. It also has a physical off switch so the in/out buttons won't accidently drain the battery pressed against some other tool in a bag. The three lights work as a battery indicator instead of a torque level meter as on the 240. There's no way to know remaining charge on the 240 until it's running low. Lots of nice little features for a little extra cost and little extra weight.

Saddened that I cannot find it on BB's site. I would try to PM Amazon's price.
I used my $10 certificate toward the WX240. It will do nicely for me. Now I need to return the one I just got from Sam's Club.

I'd buy the 242 if i didn't already have Amazon basics from last year's "deal". 242 seems like a better option. Another feature i need is a lock? to be able to use it manually for loosening and tightening. Sometimes i need to use a manual driver with my 4v amazon basics.
WORX replaced them no questions asked via mail. Didn't even have to mail back the defective ones.
