reciprocating saws, compound miter saws, routers, rotary tools, chainsaws, biscuit joiners, caulking guns and flashlights that run on tool battery packs. Here are some of the most recent models to hit the market, that are stretching the limits of what battery powered tools can do for woodworkers.

Screwdrivers: Once only available with low-voltage tools with internal batteries, newer cordless screwdrivers, including the Panasonic EY6225 CQ (see photo, bottom left), feature removable battery packs. This 3.6-volt screwdriver has a 22-stage clutch and an "Auto Shut-off" feature that extends battery life by shutting off the motor once selected torque setting is reached. If you have heavier-duty needs, DeWalt's DW920 cordless screwdriver offers even more power and longer running time, with its 12-volt packs. Drill/drivers: Long held as a mainstay among cordless shop

tools, the latest crop of drill/drivers abounds with new features. Take first, the Black & Decker 12-volt Firestorm FSD122 with its unique quick-change chuck that may be fitted with a drill or other bit, then removed to reveal a hex-socket-mounted driver bit underneath. To keep holes square or plumb, the Firestorm also has a handy built-in electronic level indicator.
