You got the math backwards. The B&D did 24% fewer screws though. 76 * 132% = 100, or 100 - 76/100 = 24% Good review though.

Good review though.

Past 2 screws and I find myself searching for my cordless. I have the PS-20 and I would consider it the smallest cordless I would use. It works pretty well, but many times I wonder if I should have bought the PS-40 instead. The 20 is lightweight and has the important Lithium ion battery feature so I can be sure it will still have a charge when I reach for it.

Which is still a deal, but maybe not an impulse buy. @Adam:

Was that at full speed? Since the B&D has a slower speed, which might be due to gear reduction, then it would not be too surprising it has more torque. So the 3″ test. Was that at full speed?
