Review and teardown of the YDD Tech 6 Volt cordless screwdriver. Interesting from a technical point of view, but ultimately pretty useless.

    Thank you, this is the best review I've seen on this

    The stuff on the gears is called "schmoo". 🙂 I have here a Black & Decker power screwdriver, which is quite heavy-duty compared to that unit, having a lot more metal in its construction. It uses a 3-cell nicad pack for power and I'm on the 3rd or 4th set, so far. Later units, which were a bit smaller, had only a 2-cell pack in there. Mine comes apart after removing only one pin, and unfortunately the first time I did that I was holding it the wrong way, and all of the gears fell out, and I had to put it back together… Same gear set, though all metal. I wouldn't be surprised if that design were very common. Torque: When you get to the point where you're driving a screw in and it stops, keep tapping the button. It won't run, but it will get them in just a bit further, and if what you're looking to do is get those screw heads flush, that will sometimes do the trick.

    That has to be the cheapest electric screwdriver I've ever seen, a motor that seems to be built for R/C racing, and the only metal in there is the bit holder…

    So, when the aliens arrive and are watching Earth's content to decide what we are like as a race…

    Disappointed / Unsubscribing : More plastic waste into the environment and a stupid waste of a serviceable tool ( even if low quality ). Manufactured in China, shipped long distance, delivered to your door and all for nothing – you could have given it to a charity shop at the very least.

    I normally love your videos but this was the first time I gave a thumbs down. I was sad for the poor tool. It was what it was and didn't deserve to die!

    this is the first time I have to give you a dislike 🙂 this is a screwdriver, not a drill…

    Think Julian, do you really want to cut stuff in half?? Looks like it's more trouble then it's worth, maybe a handy rubbage bin would work better 🙂

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jason Cannon says:

    Why Julian why. ?😔

    Should've tried it with four 14500 Li-ion cells.

    Content-OK, but sound of the video TERRIBLE, especially on sawing part… there's a mute function, or some nice music theme would be appreciated greater
