Is this tool variable speed or only on/off?

Its on/off & you have to hold your finger on the button for it to stay on the whole time

yellow button releases bit. 3 select max variable speeds at base near front top of battery area. yes speed switch is electrical maximums only. speed #1 low maximum rpm but full variable trigger control, great for sensitive tasks rather then ramming your screw through and busting an electronic control board because it was too fast.

It has a variable speed switch, 0-30,000 rpm (I think). In the zero speed position, it is off.

Not being an expert on the type blade you indicate, I would say in most cases, the speed of the blade determines the best cut. To better control the speed I also purchased voltage controller (rheostat) connecting the Dremel through the controller. This controls the motor speed, allowing you to select the best cutting speed. I felt this was less expensive than using the Dremel with variable speed.

It is full variable speed in each of the two speed levels. The switch on top of the unit just allows you to pick a slower or faster range of speeds.

Only by how much you pull the trigger - you pull it all the way and you get full sawing action, less of a pull and it goes slower. Not variable speed in the sense of a rotary dial.

There is no on/off switch or speed control. It runs by plugging it into the USB port.

The Porter Cable PC60TAG Grinder is on or off; not variable speed. You can lock it on for continuous operation.

Yes. It has a variable speed control. However, you will get better value for your money with the Hitachi DH 22PG rotary hammer.

No, the speed varies by use of the trigger, but it has no actual torque settings, so I would not rely on that instead of a torque wrench. When items need to be torqued they must be precise and I would not trust anything but a torque wrench for that. Otherwise, this is a great tool and a real time saver.

You are correct about the three speed settings limiting the maximum rpm. Please note that the instructions state , "Continuous use in variable speed range is not recommended. It may damage the switch and should be avoided.". The variable speed should just be used to start driving the fastener.

If you are sanding some thin veneer, then the variable speed allows a slow start for light sanding without going thru the veneer. Otherwise, there is no difference in my opinion.

Variable speed trigger. Increases as your squeeze it. there is switch on top of it for low or high torque.

Mine has a variable speed roller switch that works well, I've used this a lot and it is terrific!

Speed control knob is on the output side. Speed is infinitely variable (not insteps)

Yes, most definitely variable speed. Not a 100% sure on the voltage question, but I think so- the tech specs might clear that one up.

Yes, speed is variable on this model. There is a rotary switch on the handle where your thumb naturally rests that is used to vary the rpm.
