Hoto SnapBloq Electric Mini Screwdriver, Drill, and Rotary Tool Sets
Now available for $209.99 (originally $259.99), Hoto's introductory SnapBloq combo includes an electric precision screwdriver set, an electric mini drill set, and an electric mini rotary set. These tools come in separate boxes that snap together for easy storage and portability. Currently, these three tools are the only ones in the SnapBloq lineup, but Hoto plans to expand their range in the future.
The precision screwdriver in this set boasts a more powerful 0.5Nm torque rating compared to the 0.3Nm of other Hoto variants found on Amazon. It features a brushless motor, an 800mAh battery that offers up to 60 minutes of runtime, USB Type-C charging, and a built-in LED for enhanced visibility. This tool is ideal for tackling those tiny screws that often require specialized miniature bits.
The mini drill set comes with a 0.1Nm torque rating and three adjustable speed settings up to 1,200RPM, along with twenty drill bits. While it won't replace your full-sized power drill or impact driver, it's sufficiently powerful to handle plastics, wood, PCBs (like circuit boards), and resin.
The mini rotary drill offers stepless speed adjustment and can reach up to 22,000RPM. With a battery life of up to 30 minutes on a single charge, this tool comes with a variety of bits for tasks such as drilling, routing, sanding, and polishing, making it highly versatile.
Having used a Hoto mini screwdriver in the past, I can attest to their effectiveness for specific tasks. These tools are compact, similar in size to a pocket flashlight, and are not meant to replace heavy-duty power drills and drivers. My previous model had a weaker 0.3Nm rating, but the principle remains the same: you'll need to apply some manual force to start unscrewing, allowing the mini screwdriver to finish the job. Conversely, for driving screws back in, the screwdriver can handle most of the work, but you'll need to manually secure the final turn. When dealing with numerous screws, these tools save time and reduce strain on your wrists. Just remember, their small size limits their power.
