Black & Decker VPX903X1 Li-Ion VPX Starter Set with Power Screwdriver, Cut Saw, Flashlight, and VPX Battery with Charger Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We purchased this set at a very critical time -- we were just about to move into a house and had a long list of things we wanted to do, including but not limited to: cut a hole in the basement door for a cat door, install curtain rods, dis-assemble and assemble furniture and closet organizers, install cabinet hardware on brand-new maple cabinets in the kitchen and bathrooms, hang a medicine cabinet, etc. We've used these tools every day for almost two weeks and have only put the batteries on the chargers once -- not because we needed to, but because we thought we should.

We were concerned that they would not have enough power for our many needs. We've never had a problem with it not being able to handle any job asked of them.

The one recommendation I would make is to purchase a set of drill bits, as the bits it comes with are not enough for most jobs. Fortunately, it takes standard drill bits with ease.

Just because they are small and seem lightweight doesn't mean they aren't tough enough to tackle most household jobs (even the electrician borrowed our screwdriver for awhile). As a woman with small hands, the tools are very comfortable for me to use, but they are also comfortable for my husband, whose hands are pretty big.

Product Description:
Introducing the VPX Lithium-Ion Battery System
Black & Decker's advanced, powerful VPX system guarantees the convenience of a rechargeable battery with maximum versatility. At the center of the VPX system is the 7-volt high-energy VPX rechargeable battery, which features breakthrough lithium-ion technology to generate more energy in a smaller package. The end result is a battery that's super-compact and 60-percent lighter than Black & Decker's Ni-Cad power tool batteries. And the VPX holds a charge longer, too -- so it's ready to work whenever you are.
With its versatile design and Black & Decker exclusive technology, a VPX battery is interchangeable with all the products in Black & Decker's growing VPX line. Swap out one battery for the flashlight, inflator, screwdriver, USB power source, cut saw, or 7-volt drill driver; or double the juice with two batteries to operate the 14-volt drill driver or the hand vac. And of course, every VXP battery and compatible product features the rugged, dependable construction you expect from an industry leader in home power tools.

About this Exceptional Starter Kit
If you're interested in Black & Decker's advanced VPX product line, this is an excellent place to start. Begin your collection with this screwdriver, cut saw, flashlight, and battery -- and from there, the sky's the limit.

The screwdriver's Quick Connect chuck lets you exchange bits and tips without any hassle.
The cut saw tears through everything from stray branches, drywall, and even tougher materials like slim metal piping.
The flashlight's integrated bungee cord fastens securely to hold the beam steady. The Cordless VPX Screwdriver
The new VPX1101X cordless screwdriver stays stronger, longer and gets into tight spaces with ease. This compact driver is small enough to fit in the kitchen drawer, but packs plenty of power to take on projects all over the house. This handy model offers two speeds: high speed for assembly and fastening tasks, and low speed for higher torque applications such as small diameter drilling. Easy to grip and comfortably lightweight, the VPX1101X fits conveniently in your palm, and it gets into tight spaces that other power tools can't reach. You can even use it under counter tops or behind sinks, around corners or between pieces of furniture. The VPX1101X's spindle lock helps to start and finish screws, and it lets you set the screwdriver for manual operation under tricky conditions. This screwdriver comes equipped with a Quick Connect hex-shank collar that quickly, easily accepts hex-shaped screwdriving and drilling accessories. The screwdriver is powered by a single 7-volt VPX battery.

Applications
Use the VPX1101X for any around-the-house project, from assembling furniture, hanging pictures, installing blinds and more. It's perfect for all screw-related jobs and light duty drilling applications.

The Cordless VPX Cut Saw
Zip through all kinds of cutting jobs with the new 7-volt VPX cut saw from Black & Decker. Power saws can be intimidating, bulky and noisy; and traditional handsaws can be tiring and inaccurate. Neither saw is versatile enough for everyday cutting around the home, but the VPX1301X combines power and a compact design in a lightweight cordless tool. Truly a grab-and-go item, the cut saw is ideal for quick cuts into baseboard, 1-inch pine, PVC, and more. In fact, the VPX1301X cuts almost anything, anywhere, anytime. The cut saw is powered by a single 7-volt VPX battery.

Applications
Take the VPX1301X outside to make short work of pruning, or trim your Christmas tree down to a more manageable size. Use it to cut plastic pipe under the sink or to modify the fiberboard back of your entertainment center so you can run cords out to your surround-sound speakers. This saw even cuts Closetmaid shelving to make that perfect custom fit.

The Cordless VPX Flashlight
The VPX1401 flashlight is designed to fit right in the palm of your hand, and it features three bright LED lights for plenty of illumination in any position. The flashlight's pivoting head adjusts so you can direct the light wherever you need it most, and its integrated flat surfaces let you rest the light in three different positions. An adjustable bungee cord can be used to twist the light securely around 2-by-4 beams, pipes or tree branches; or use the belt clip to keep the flashlight close and steady while you walk. The VPX1401 is powered by a single 7-volt VPX battery.

Applications
Use the VPX1401 LED flashlight when you're working on anything that needs a little extra light to help you finish the job. The adjustable bungee cord makes the light super-versatile for auto work, duct work, plumbing, or any other kind of repair or installation that might occur in a darkened space.
