Strengths: Lithium battery retains charge for long time. Decent power for its size. Good ergonomics.
Weaknesses: Power button and the lock button ergonomically difficult. Charging time slightly long. Battery not removable.
Summary: Dremels can be used to cut even metals but if you buy this for those purposes you will be disapponted. This model is intended for light duty work so anyone purchasing it should firmly keep that in mind. That said, it works great for all around light duty Dremel work. Ergonomic grip fits well and has some weight to make it feel solid. I dont like the power button - it's small and not protruding enough so you don't really get a definite sense of turning it on. Similarly for the lock button it's hard to push on it as it is too flush with the body.
The battery is lithium so the biggest advantage is that it will hold its charge for long time even if you dont use it. The charging time I think could have been made shorter like 30 minutes since many new Lithium systems do this quick charging. Or make the battery REMOVABLE. Since with this model you have to stop all your work and wait while it charges, the shorter the charging the better, or a removable battery system would solve this.
