New toy - sweet little drill

[Jiml0001]

Ordered this from AliExpress.   I didn’t expect much for $30.00 but this is a great tool.    It has two speeds with a built in light.  It is so tiny, feels more like using a pen.  The slow speed is 550 rpm and it drills styrene perfectly without melting the plastic.  Seems to have plenty of torque    There is a more powerful version but I didn’t want to invest too much if it was junk.  Wish I had ordered the more powerful one.

That does look like a cool drill. Are the jaws adjustable, to be able to put small bits in it? Is it battery powered?

Thanks

This drill only accepts 3/32 inch shanks.  To use any drill bit I use a chuck adapter.   These are less than five dollars and let’s me use any bit.    If you look for one make sure it will go down to zero inches.   Some don’t go down that small.  Also be sure to get the 3/32 shank adapter.

Yes it is battery operated.   It uses a USB C charging connector that is not included in the cheapest model but I already had that from another device charger.
