Dave:
    I have a newish B&D which has a very bright LED which illuminates the screw.  But, it's not slim like yours.  I think I paid about $30.

    I have a pretty old (late 80's?) Black & Decker slim cordless screwdriver (no hefty battery pack at the bottom of the handle).  It's great because it has a long, narrow, tapered snout that will fit behind fallboards, down between keys for grand action brackets, between pedal levers, etc.  It has very good torque and the batteries stay charged for several weeks at least.    Most of the new ones I see on the market have a stubby, fat snout that doesn't let you get in to any narrow places unless you use a super long bit.  
    Now if only they would build a flashlight into the unit that points to the business end of the bit . . . .
    Hard to believe I used to unscrew all those keyslips, key blocks, key stop rails, action bracket screws, etc. by hand.
