Hi. May be Bosch GSR10.8Li better, than this Powermaxx. The difference is a time for charge (30min vs. 1hr45min), peak torque (7(18)Nm - 5(9)Nm) and price around one and a half from Bosch relatively Metabo. Li-ion batteries, equipped to Bosch, also suitable. But they all, for rumours, do not have function of fast spindel stop. If this message is not too late, i can look for this in addition.

I himself use modified for external power input (and replaced inner non-removed battery pack) Skil 2972 screwdriver (7,2V 0,8Ah Ni-cd). This alteration make from toys useful tool, which not yield both mentioned screwdrivers.

He modified a Skil 2972 (7.2) for an external power supply and turned it from a toy into a tool
