Does this "cinch lock collet" secure the bit so that that it cannot be pulled out without "unlocking" it?

Hello Engineer Type! Yes, think of it like an impact driver sleeve. You will need to pull back on the collet in order to release the bit. Thank you for your question!

Can it drill into studs and thin layers of plastic? I install alarm keypads, motion detectors, etc. I have my real drill as a backup.

Yes, But. I have drilled into particle board for small pilot holes. The holes are for wood screws. Sizes vary #8 - 12. You can expect to drill and set 6 holes and screws. The last couple will be using your wrist. Then time for a recharge.

can you take this in your carry on bag with traveling?

I'm currently researching this as I recently had a similar product confiscated by the SLC TSA recently. From what I found, you are allowed to take a tool (screwdriver) that is less than 7 inches fully assembled. However, powertools are not allowed as carry on period. So while this is less than 7 inches (6.9 per Skil's website), it may be deemed a powertool, therefore can only be transported in the cargohold. But it has a lithium baterry, so theres that. I tweeted @AskTSA to get a definitive answer.

How is the battery life?

depends on usage if you had a project taking some 3-4 hours and used the device constantly you might drain the unit down below below 25% if you go too low a light will flash for low battery.. I think it is red. when the unit is back at full charge the light is either green or stay on solid to show full charge.
