To those of you who use a yankee screwdriver as I often do (sometimes I'm lazy and reach for the "other" cordless) do you prefer it with the return spring or prefer it removed?

w/or/wo I have a lot of both. You just have to learn to use a little tension on the bottom hand during the return.

I ahve a 135, 130 and 131 all with spring. I might pop one out and try it. I do occasionally have a little accident with the return spring.
