Bosch LITHEON(TM) 10.8-volt Pocket Driver, World's Smallest, Most Powerful Ultra-Compact Drill/Driver
Industry's Most Advanced Lithium-ion Battery Technology
Mt. Prospect, Ill. (April 13, 2006) - Bosch Power Tools and Accessories announced the launch of the world's smallest, most powerful ultra-compact LITHEON(TM) 10.8-volt Pocket Driver (PS20). Forty-percent lighter and 33-percent more productive than other ultra-compact drill/drivers, the Pocket Driver is small enough to fit into a tool belt pouch and lightweight and powerful enough to accomplish a majority of professional drill/driving tasks all day without fatigue. The Pocket Driver is powered by LITHEON, the industry's most advanced lithium-ion battery technology.
For carpenters, remodelers, electricians, woodworkers, HVAC, maintenance professionals and more, the Pocket Driver is an invaluable complement to larger and heavier cordless drill/drivers. The 10.8-volt Pocket Driver measures only 6 by 6.5-inches, nearly half the size of stick drivers and other ultra-compact drill/drivers. Under two pounds (with battery), the Pocket Driver is also 40-percent lighter and comfortably fits into a tool belt pouch or back pocket, unlike the competition.
The Pocket Driver can drive 100 3-inch screws per charge and drill holes up to 1/2-inch in diameter, more than enough to keep most professionals productive through the day. The variable speed trigger controls 0-400 RPM and over 80-inch/lbs. of torque. A 10+1 clutch system, similar to those of standard drill/drivers, offers 10 drive and one "Max" drill setting for better control. The tool's Clic-Change(TM) bit holder makes 1/4-inch hex shank bits changes quick and easy. And a LED light enhances visibility in dim working conditions, while a soft-grip handle makes the tool more comfortable for all day use.
LITHEON 10.8-volt tools, such as the Pocket Driver, were not possible before lithium-ion technology. In addition to larger more powerful 36-volt tools, Bosch recognized the opportunity to extend the inherent benefits of the new battery technology to innovate the lower end of the voltage spectrum with a never before seen ultra-compact, lightweight and powerful design.
The Ultra-Compact Bosch PS20 LITHEON 10.8-volt Pocket Driver comes complete with two batteries, 30-minute charger, soft carrying case and two bits. All LITHEON tools and batteries are also covered under the industry's most reliable protection plan ever offered, PROVANTAGE. Registering is absolutely free and affords users one-year of tool and two-years of battery replacements in the event of failure and three years of free tool repairs. After purchasing a new Bosch cordless product, users either mail in the enclosed registration card, register online at www.boschprovantage.com or call 888-919-7272. More information about the program and various tools included can be found online.
