power tools
Motorized workshop devices
Power tools are tools driven by electric motors, batteries, or compressed air rather than manual effort: drills, saws, sanders, nail guns.
The term distinguishes them from hand tools.
Power tools enable faster, less physically demanding work, though they require more caution: Always wear safety glasses when using power tools.
