Overview

WORX built the WX242L as a compact, battery-powered driver running at 4 volts with a 320 RPM top speed. Its low voltage class points to light-duty use rather than heavy drilling.

At 4 volts and 320 RPM, this sits well below the 18 or 20 volt drills built for construction-grade torque, and instead prioritizes small size and light weight. That makes it a fit for quick screw-driving jobs rather than boring large holes.
