Dremel 1100-01 Stylus 5,000 to 25,000 RPM Variable Speed 7.2-Volt Lithium-Ion Cordless Rotary Tool with Docking Station
If you ever find the need to grind, cut, sharpen, polish, engrave, or to clean intricate parts, the Dremel Stylus Rotary Tool will get the job done. The Dremel 1100-01 is a unique handheld cordless rotary tool that utilizes the new lithium-ion battery technology. Once the 7.2-volt battery has been charged it can retain a charge for up to 18 months of non-use. But, I doubt this tool will be set aside for long. The variable speed tool, 5,000 - 25,000 RPM, can be used by homemakers, hobbyists and artists, to clean, sand, grind, cut, polish, drill and engrave. The soft pistol grip housing fits comfortably in the hand for outstanding balance and precision control. The docking station not only holds the Stylus when not in use but also recharges the battery to provide long-lasting performance. Some of the most commonly used quick change bits are included in a handy storage case. --C. Dwight Barnett What's in the Box

am i doing something wrong. it says to move the switch into the locked position and then turn it counter-clockwise. can anyone please help. i just purchased the dremel stylus and CANNOT get the collet to open to put in the accessories. nor can i remove it. did anyone else have the same problem. i cannot get the collet to turn AT ALL in either direction when it's in the locked position.
However, by then vitually all of my work was finished. I purchased it for jewelry making, specifically for drilling holes in natural shell. I read other reviews before buying, some good, some not so but I would highly recommend this product and confidently stand by my recommendation. This product is everything I hoped it would be. It works great, making small, precise holes without shattering or splitting the delicate shells. I have small hands, yet this appliance was easy to use and manuever. First time I used it, I worked for literally HOURS before the appliance became hot and eventually turned itself off briefly.
using the cutting wheel on max speed, I'm able to saw through just over 2 dozen #10 steel screws, at about 10 sec apiece (and plenty of showering sparks), before the battery runs down. Recommended, despite a few quirks. THE GOOD:. I also wish this thing had a detacheable battery pack, so that you could swap packs while the other re-charges - and not have to toss out the whole unit when the built-in battery finally dies. So far, I've only used the etching and cutting head, but overall I'm pleased with it. When placed into the charger while still warm, the charger appears to get confused and think the unit has just been charged - and refuses to charge it further.
It works. * DEFAULT ACCESSORIES: The default kit is stingy on attachments - and some of the attachments it does comes with can't be used out of the box unless you buy additional parts. * COMFORT: This unit fits nicely in the hand, and is ambidexterous. My new Li-Ion Makita drill charges in only 15 mins, so 3 hrs for something far smaller seems rather pokey.
For a cordless stylus, that's all out torture, but it gets it done - although it does get pretty warm under that kind of abuse. THE QUIRKS:. That's annoying (hence the 4 stars instead of 5). NITS:. * CHARGE SENSOR: Under extremely heavy use (see above), the stylus gets warm.
I just bought one of these. * POWER: The run time and torque are impressive. Anyway, one way around that is to pop the stylus in the freezer for 10 mins (to speed-cool), and THEN put it in the charger. * CHARGE TIME: Only the heaviest users will notice, but this unit's charger needs 3 hours to fully charge the stylus. Clearly, its smart charging technology is not very smart.
The lithium battery holds an extremely long charge and the tool is strong enough to accomplish nearly any task in one charge. It's still a great product. (Indeed, when I went to check on the light just now, I discovered that it had worked its way out of position somehow and was not charging until I twisted it slightly. Although there is a light on the back of the dock that tells you when it's in place, I'm never sure whether it's completely locked into the dock, and you can never be sure that it will stay that way once you leave the room. First, it's a bit light and slides around wherever it's placed.
The only thing I can say needs a bit more work is the cradle/docking station. I have been so pleased with this little stylus that I'm about ready to give away my corded Dremel tool. I have very little use for it any more. I like it well enough that I gave a similar unit to my brother and his wife last Christmas and last I heard, they were equally thrilled with it. Point made).
Also, the unit doesn't dock with the charging plug as convincingly as I would like.
So after using this tool just once, it sits here, with the brush tool in place, worthless unless I want to brush something else. While trying to remove the brush tool, the collet. "All-Purpose Accessory Kit." This product, made in Mexico, should be declared an illegal immigrant and kicked back over the border. It worked fineonce. nut was so tight it wouldn't come off. Sitting next to it is the 150 tool. But the shaft lock button did, and a small spring popped out to God knows where.
