Abstract
Trigger-activated tools are provided that have one or more trigger locks. Trigger locks include electrical resets, variable-position locks, mechanical locks, guard locks, and any combination thereof. Trigger-activated tools are provided that include trigger locks, which prevent accidental activation of the tools. In some models, the trigger lock is an electrical reset. Unless the electrical reset has been pressed, the trigger, regardless of whether it is in the normal or activated position, is prevented from activating the tool.
