Abstract
A power tool according to one aspect of one embodiment described in the disclosure includes a brushless motor, a battery voltage detection unit configured to detect a voltage of a battery that provides energy for driving the brushless motor, a rotational position detection unit configured to detect a rotational position of the brushless motor, and a control unit configured to control a drive output supplied to the brushless motor based at least in part on a signal from the rotational position detection unit. The control unit controls a current conduction angle and/or an advance angle supplied to the brushless motor so that, during control of the drive output to the brushless motor, a rotational speed or a conducting current of the brushless motor approaches or reaches a target value, the target value being based at least in part on a battery voltage detected by the battery voltage detection unit.
