This could really be useful for non pros that only need to nail something together every now and again and don't want to spend hundreds on a Paslode gas powered jobie
This toy isn't even slightly the same functionality as a Paslode or Air Nailer. Doesn't mean that it is useless, but it's not a replacement for a proper nail gun.
There are some cool little air-powered "palm nailers" that use this concept but in a much smaller package. Of course you need a compressor to run them.
Putting nails into wood is one of the hardest tings I've had to do around the house
This will probably be harder - it certainly won't be as accurate.
Hammering nails into wood is probably one of the most simple tasks in the household. The trick it to buy quality nails (that don't bend), and use a decent hammer that "hits straight" (which doesn't make the nails bend).

Everybody, + the hell outta that comment!
Also, don't choke the hammer…
I've heard there are electric palm nailers..
One of these devices could be handy for nailing in a tight spot, where you can't get a decent swing.I've heard there are electric palm nailers..
Bet the Romans wish they had had one of them…

yeah, i spied this at bunnings. i don't know how useful it is but it looked nifty http://www.bunnings.com.au/stanley-bostitch-mini-impact-nail…
i wonder if it bends less nails than i do?
This is exactly what I pictured when I read the title :)
you beat me to it by 20 seconds..
How did you measure the 20 seconds passing? I hope you used … STOP … HAMMER TIME!

You win the internet.
Masters have a 3 tool combo kit including a similar device for $55 (Vic Pricing, has been $47.50 in NSW previously):

In any event I struggle to see how it would beat a normal hammer, particularly as a claw hammer can pull the nail out when you bend it.

These devices are best for when you cannot SWING a normal hammer.
That is hilarious! I want a corded hammer like that!
Or when you are nailing to the ceiling or upside down.

a normal hammer requires swinging space. in tight spaces, a normal hammer is useless
A hammer can be useless, even without the space limitations. I've used a normal hammer in my yard, no excuses about tight spaces, and the nails still went in crooked and bent. I blame the hammer.
Guess thats why carpentry hasn't really worked until these things were invented.
Electric hammer? Pretty sure Homer Simpson invented that. Next week they'll be selling makeup applicator guns (just make sure you don't set it to 'whore').
Actually I think it is a great idea.
Well someone has obviously already gone and done it.
seriously guys, how hard is it to hammer nails in wood ^_^
and why would you need 3,000 beats per minute … marketing gimmick
… marketing gimmick
No, that would be the Logitech cordless hammer with flip out LCD screen telling you how many beats per minute; but only if the nails support the feature! ;)
how hard is it to hammer nails in wood
it can be suprisingly hard, especially if you are nailing in to seasoned hardwood or trying to bang in a nail at an awkward angle or you don't have much clearance to swing.
and why would you need 3,000 beats per minute
i'm guessing it does heaps of small taps rather than a couple of big bangs
it can be suprisingly hard, especially if you are nailing in to seasoned hardwood
That's probably when you should pre-drill.
First thing I thought of when I clicked into this was Homer's electric hammer.
Macgyver - an electric hammer sounds like something your TV persona could make good use of :-)

Fixed.
Sounds like something that Dexter would be interested in , especially with the 3,000 beats per minute and built in LED light
Nah, Dexter is a lumberjack now… he's left that former life behind him.
What next, an rechargable shoelace Knot tier
Link please??? :)
or maybe an electric door knob opener that spins 3000 times per minute
Only if it can do 3000 laces per minute, minimum.
Hammer reference? Check!

Big +1 there for a GQ reference! :)
stop. hammer time
We were all thinking it…kudos for being brave enough to post it!
Can't touch this…
What, no laser?
Anything less than 18v…… I wouldn't recommend
Just my opinion and experienceVoltage has nothing to do with how powerful it is, my 11v drill would eat any 18v drill alive.
Just my better opinion and more experience.
Well unless the people that make your drill release an updated version that is 18v….
But yes, generally voltage doesn't really mean much in cordless drills. It is a bit like thinking a 240v halogen must be brighter than a 12v one.
@edgar, not trying to be rude but you should probably look up what volts actually mean and how tools use volts before you make a comment like that.
People on this forum who actually buy tools that cost more than $5 will hammer (pun intended) you for it. Your comment is giving poor advice to others and you present yourself as an expert which you clearly aren't
you hit the nail on the head
Cordless hammers here at Bunnings… $5.50
http://www.bunnings.com.au/craftright-450g-16oz-soft-grip-cl…Beware! No hit per min rating on that one, probably much less than 5000.
Well I couldnt resist getting one, works as intended but (profanity) me its loud.
Wow. This could really be useful for non pros that only need to nail something together every now and again and don't want to spend hundreds on a Paslode gas powered jobie. Putting nails into wood is one of the hardest tings I've had to do around the house (I could just be rubbish at it)
