I picked up the Bosch 12-Volt Pocket Driver & Impact Driver when it was going for $129 at Lowes about a week ago. I’ve used it lightly since then, but my initial impressions are that the impact driver has definitely got some power considering its compact size and 12V rating. The pocket driver was just extra icing on the cake at this price point.

I’ve never understood the Bosch impact driver / pocket driver combo.
I bought the equivalent kit several years ago because it was cheap, $85 if I recall correctly. I Think the impact driver is a great tool but not as happy about the pocket driver. The two don’t seem to offer much as a combo. I use the pocket driver primarily as a drill which requires me to use bits with 1/4″ hex shanks. I’d be much happier if it had a drill chuck.
Am I the only person who thinks this is an odd combo? I see they offer the CLPK22-120 which includes the impact tool and drill/drive with chuck. That seems like a much more useful kit.

Hey Gordon, in defense of this kit, the new driver is actually the PS31 without a keyless chuck. Its true its got a hex chuck but this driver is actually a 2 speed drill with over 260″ lbs of torques! I had the little PS20 driver that was a single speed and did not have much torque or speed. I have the kit albeit separate kits and really like the new driver but all in all, having an adjustable keyless chuck is really the way to go so following these guys direction, I bought the new PS31-2al with the two l-boxx’ on Amazon. They have been running that deal every couple of days when Stuart announced it for $94.99!!! I actually bought another one yesterday! Can’t have too many l-boxx’!

I’ve never thought of a use for the pocket driver. I use the drill and the impact a lot. I like them so much that I just purchased the drill/impact combo for work. I also find the pocket saw handy.
