I just bought an 8V USB-C chargeable drill set off AliExpress. It just happens to be bright pink. Not sure if I'm giving the right impression at the men's shed.
Pink is fine. 8V power tools from AliExpress is not.
Sounds useful as a screwdriver. I needed a low powered one to run the crank attachment on my knitting machine. It's entirely plastic and the gears inside get horribly worn if any kind of serious speed or torque is exerted on it.
