Arrow Fastener has come out with the Arrow Fastener Electric Brad Nailer. This nailer is a has huge benefit for homeowners, decorators and DIYers because it eliminates the need for a compressor and hose.
The new EBN320 R.E.D.™ Professional Electric Brad Nail Gun, is able to shoot an electric staple and 18 gauge brad nail.
First Impression:
The EBN320 R.E.D.™ has an durable high-impact composite plastic housing with an ergonomic soft rubber grip and sleek design. The tool is light weight and has a side-load magazine that was quick and easy to use. A 10 foot cord may eliminate the need for an extension cord in newer homes.
A really nice feature is an on board LED light.
The depth of drive know is not easy or comfortable to operate. I found my hand contorted in order to get the know to turn.

Using The EBN320 R.E.D.™ Professional Electric Brad Nail Gun:
This nailer can fire up to 2” (50mm) 18 gauge Brad Nails, the depth of drive control enables users to set nails right on virtually every surface. I found that to shoot a 2″ brad into two pieces of 3/4″ AC plywood the depth of drive had to be set to full depth.
The nailer worked well but I found I needed to apply downward pressure on the tool with my support hand in order to get the brads to set properly.
Overall Impression:
This is a perfect tool for homeowners, decorators and DIYers as it provides ease and maximum convenience for small scale brad fastening.
