I recently got a small cordless drill/kit. When the drill "feels" resistance it starts a hammer action to help drive the screw. It is much easier to use than my other cordless and smaller too,maybe about the same weight,not sure on that one. I believe several companies make a version. My big bro said he liked the control you get,as-in,not sinking the screws too far,,I like the ease of driving 5" or 6" screws,which we all know can be a real bitchkitty to do and sometimes the head strips out or the screw breaks off.
This is NOT a big impact that you would use for changing car tires,it is more for construction or homeowner type stuff. I just used mine to build 30' of privacy fence(shadowbox style)around big sis's hot tub thingy in her back yard off the deck. I can post pics of it--I'm not proud,or tired--quoting Arlo Guthrie on that one!

The only downside I see to the drill is it does make some noise when the hammer action kicks in,small price to pay for the help it provides IMO.
