Excellent tool (too big though)
Brilliant idea and a real time and pain saver! I believe that I will be happy with this purchase for many years to come, since it eases up a task that is very time consuming and cumbersome otherwise.
I was unimpressed (yet not surprised) with the chinese quality of this tool. but the price is right and will do the trick anyway. So no complaints in that department I guess.
The tool sports ample power for its task, and batteries seem to last long (already used it on several restringing duties and I can only guess).
Another con (admittedly subjective and not vital to ditch purchasing this fantastic idea) is the size. This "drill" is vastly larger than I expected (say 70% the size of a household usual drill). So size is less than ideal to consider this winder comfortable to keep with you at all times in the case. Then again, this will usually find its place at home so it migth not be a factor for you.
In short: is a fantastic idea that renders a painful job into something fast and easy, looks and feels like plastic, is tolerably fancy looking, is large and eats power within reason. A clever purchase!

Good item
This is a good item, and does exactly what it says. The build quality is not great, its a bit like a child's toy.

Simple piece of automation
The Power Peg is really handy and simple piece of automation, that in my case allowed me to speed up string changing process at least 2x times. The tool seem to fit any type of peg heads. Worked well for me with so called "butter beans" and standard bigger pegs.
The only concern I have at the moment is that how long will those 4 AA batteries last.

Ernie Ball Power Peg 4118
Great product and saves a lot of time to the string changing procedure. The only negative is that the batteries can be consumed kind of fast therefore i think is good to have rechargeable batteries because not only you save money but also when the batteries are running out then also the spinning is not as fast.

Must-have for techs
I've had mine for a while and can't imagine teching for a band without it. Changing strings about twice as fast as I usually would. Definitely a must-have for anyone who doesn't want to spend too much time changing strings. Batteries last long too!

That little tool will save a lot of time
Hi!
I got more than 6 guitars and i'll "give" them new strings every month.
It takes a lot of time changing their strings, so i wanted to save time on that .
The Ernie Ball Power Peg is exactly the thing i was looking for.
It saves a lot of time, and i really recommend it for the lazy guys out there :-D

String winder
This is a no brainer, you want one, you just don't know how much until you get one. The battery compartment is a bit fiddly, otherwise it is easy to use, quick and the batteries last a long time. I bought rechargeable batteries which it takes perfectly well. Recommended!
