Bosch GSR 1440-LI 1.5Ah x2 Case Screwdriver Reviews

Virtues

  • Adequate price 4950 at the dealer
  • Lithium-Ion batteries are different from nickname-cadm and nickname meth hydr: tiny weight, charging for 1 hour, no self-discharge effect, after long storage time does not need to be charged, power is always maximum to full discharge, it is not necessary to discharge to zero to maintain capacity, can be recharged at any time, the system of protection against overload, overheating and deep discharge, thanks to all this live longer
  • A very small weight of 1.3 kg, the hand does not get tired at all, you do not even notice it. With NiCd and NiMh, the weight was felt immediately and it was difficult to work, especially on the ceiling
  • Large torque 30Nm, twists, God forbid, 16Nm interskol turns, but it’s difficult where this one doesn’t tense at all, 100 screws in Listvak, screw 0.8x80 with 13 head pushes you into oil
  • Two batteries included
  • The charger is very light and small, the display is simple
  • A large number of ratchet steps: 25 + drill bit
  • Stable when installed on the sole, if you put unevenly - staggers, but becomes straight
  • The shifter is very clear and tight, it never switches itself (after the interskolovskoy self-switching - a fairy tale)
  • Cool, compact suitcase: snaps tightly otkr / zakr, while it is not necessary to throw in the loop as in the makite, and just snap it all. Minimum free space: shurik, extra battery, charging, you can still shove a little box with drills and bits
  • Convenient, clear switch forward, backward, lock
  • Rubberized grip - soft where the palm rests, but smooth where dirty fingers (Pts convenient that does not stick chips and debris)
  • It can be seen that the high-quality case: nothing backlash, no creaks, plastic in appearance is extremely high-quality. The end of the iron chuck - when the screw slides off, it hits the metal, not the plastic
  • Unlike some companies, there is a shaft lock: when the button is not pressed, the cartridge is locked and you can turn the hand using the handle as a shoulder, it is convenient not to mess with a screwdriver, but there is unrealistically a lot of power and I never needed a turn

disadvantages

  • There are no drawbacks, but there are cavils:
  • The keyless chuck with a high clamping force holds and clamps really well, of course it is convenient to change a bit on a bat with one hand and everything is fine, but it is not fast - but normal, like everyone else (checked on a Makita and interskol) to change a drill bit for a bit better to use the button: turn your hands for a long time.
  • I don’t know who needs it, but it’s almost impossible to twist very slowly. Makita also does not exist, interskol has a turtle mode, when the cartridge turns one turn of seconds 5. You can also find this here, but this is a very painstaking job.
  • The reverse works a little more sharply than screwing: you press a little on the button, but it starts to twist a little faster than it is twisted, so you have to push hard on the shurik so that the bit does not slip.
  • In the instructions and on the website the type of battery is xxx740, and in the kit both are xxxx739 (I do not know what the difference is, but they work fine)
  • Li-Ion batteries behave worse in the cold than NiMh and NiCd (I worked at +3 - all the rules, but in -15 I am not going to work)
  • Li-Ion batteries do not like full discharge and excessive charge, so the principle of working with them is different from the NiMh and NiCd that everyone is used to. In the battery there is a system of protection against these things, but the Russian person is able to break the unbreakable.
  • The holder for 1 bit and then it is simply inserted and held not so hot
  • No backlight

Comment
I recommend this model. Shurik is extremely pleasant in all respects, but the main thing with him is a small weight and power.
About the battery the following figures: after a full discharge / charge of 30 holes with a drill + 30 screws 100mm + 58 screws 55mm each.
The case is very convenient: I twist both standardly and upside down and in hard-to-reach places I wrap it up holding it with my fingers. I press the button with my palm, with any fingers. You can push as you like and palm second and grip on the side ...
The trigger has a convenient small idle, then a little speed and a progressive increase in speed
Included immortal bits
The cartridge and the ratchet are very pleasant - they spin well and in gloves.
There is a loop for the strap
I really liked the sound: it doesn’t strain the ear, the ratchet is pleasant and not annoying (it makes me furious, interskol is rougher). Many do not use the ratchet because of the fact that it cuts off hearing, but here it is pleasant.
The voltage of the battery 14.4 V is enough - the power is more than enough
The capacity of the battery 1.3A * h is small, but thanks to her shurik is light and compact, and for 1 hour of charging the spare battery I cannot kill 1.3A * h.
Akkum kept on the sled + button (some have 2 latches, one breaks - electrical tape)
Adequate and understandable naming of models in Bosch - those characteristics and type are immediately clear, while others have something horrible
Warranty at an official dealer for 3 years, although instructions 2

Virtues

  • Very comfortable, in your hand just like a glove, the power is excellent.

disadvantages

  • At first it seemed that he was beating the cartridge when using long bits, but then he specifically took the same bit and tried it with other screwdrivers, much more expensive, everywhere as well. Powerful arcing in the area of ​​brushes, I don’t know if this affects their work, but the following model 14.4-2-li has almost no spark. Also, the brushes are not removable, for professional work is not suitable, otherwise after wear you will have to change the entire engine. For domestic use the most it.

Comment
After reading the reviews, I realized that the beating of the cartridge is a frequent problem. When buying, choose from those that were available. and there were only 2, both have a heartbeat. Well visible on bits from 70mm long. Of course, nothing is visible on the short bit. But later I decided to try other screwdrivers, revised 10 different, much more expensive models. Everyone has the same beat on the long bits, + -1mm at the tip approximately. So that you can not bother. The drill costs exactly - does not hit.
Chased for the test. At the second speed, he spun and unscrewed 30 pieces into dry pine. 5x90 yellow screws. At first speed, I would still spin, but there was not too much time. Then on the same battery I drilled 10 mm holes for the entire depth of the drill by about 100 mm, the charge still remained. Well, thanks to the lithium-ion it is not necessary to finish the battery to the end, you can immediately put on charging.
I also showed this shurik to my friends - professional installers; they didn’t find the beating of the cartridge critical, they say that I’m picking on it and everything is fine.

Virtues

  • comfortable in hand, powerful

disadvantages

  • unreliable charging

Comment
I bought the shares for 3900. After six months of daily full use (one battery in charge, the other in work, 3-4 battery change cycles per day), charging started. I did not find charging on sale separately, I bought the same screwdriver. A year later, the charge died already on the new shurik.Batteries began to lose capacity after six months of use - if the new battery lasted for 2-3 hours of work, then after a year it would take 0.5-1 hours. Of the four batteries, a year and a half later remained alive. 2. Shurik himself was not killed, and they dropped from the forests from the 6th subway. Now I need to charge again — it is not sold anywhere. The warranty is valid only for the screwdriver itself, batteries and charger.

Virtues

  • Powerful, good speed at 2 speeds, easy, charging 1 hour.

disadvantages

  • Yes, there is a backlash of a small cartridge, but does not interfere with work.

Comment
I have been working for them for a year now, the load is average, did not let them down. Inconvenient speed switch, hard. Batteries like new. When pressing, when you drill, the handle somehow digs into the palm, is not very pleasant. Batteries would like more capacity, at 1.5 a / h. Torque for the eyes. Satisfied with the tool, on the whole it is a pleasure to work.

Comment
Was purchased for home use. I chose it with a Li-ion battery, and here
still spare. Makita also considered, but Makita with Li-ion battery is an order of magnitude
expensive. I was pleasantly surprised: in the store, when checking, I pressed the cartridge with my hand, the result was a small
abrasion. I did not think that such a small tool is powerful and playful. Torque is great.
Not very loud. Conveniently lies in the hand - the handle is elegant. The cartridge can be clamped with one hand.
Convenient switch direction of torsion. Made in Malaysia.
Especially liked the work at low speeds: with a slight press of the gas key
confidently turns, with a very quiet sound, some kind of purring. This is especially important.
for precise work and for tightening small screws. The key is soft and docile,
press better smoothly and also let go, so as not to spoil the gearbox. All on first
speed. The second is more suitable for drilling, although for this there is a drill.
Batteries hold well, the more they can be recharged at any time. For home more than ...
Generally THING, necessary and functional. Power tool number 1 in the house. I am satisfied with the purchase!
By the way, this model is new, so I recommend it.

disadvantages

  • not

Comment
In addition to all its technical bells and whistles, it should be noted that the tool is also compact, lightweight, convenient to use. There is a good overheating protection system. The battery does not discharge even after a long time in the car. Torque ensures precise adjustment when screwing in screws of any size. An indispensable tool for housework and professional finishing.
