1. An electric hand held fruit and vegetable coring device comprising:
a cylindrical sealed tube having a rounded first end spaced apart from a second end, a top side spaced apart from a bottom side; a plurality of finger grips disposed on the bottom side; a sealed bushing disposed in the first end; a spring loaded keeper disposed within the tube proximal the first end, the keeper further comprising:
a housing,a disc movably disposed within the housing;a projection disposed on the disc, the projection facing a central interior of the tube;a first compression spring disposed within the housing between the disc and an interior of the tube;a spring loaded release disposed within the tube, the release diametrically opposed to the keeper, the release comprising;a tab slidably disposed in the tube;a stop extended tangentially from the tab, the stop abutting the interior of the tube in preventing a tab exit from the tube;an arm disposed on the tab, the arm extended toward the central interior of the tube;a second compression spring disposed against the tab, the second compression spring extended toward the central interior of the tube; a bracket disposed approximately centrally within the tube; a motor disposed approximately centrally within the bracket; an output shaft disposed within the motor, the output shaft extended therefrom toward the first end; a cupped sleeve disposed on the output shaft, the cupped sleeve partially comprising a hole, the hole passed through at a perpendicular to the output shaft, the cupped sleeve openly facing the first end, the second compression spring abutting the cupped sleeve and the tab; wherein a pressure is exerted against the tab; a sealed control button disposed on the top side; a plurality of seals, wherein a first of the plurality of seals is continuously disposed around the release and a second of the plurality of seals is continuously disposed around the control button; a progressively activated switch disposed within the tube, most proximal to the second end; wherein a repeated press of the control button is configured to turn the motor on a low speed followed by a plurality of elevations to higher speeds followed by an off; a rechargeable power pack disposed within the tube adjacent the second end; wherein the motor, the control button, the progressively activated switch, and the power pack are in operational communication; a port disposed in the second end, the port in operational communication with the power pack; a power cord having a jack selectively inserted into the port; and a plurality of augers, each auger comprising a constant diameter shaft with a rounded terminus, bit with a tip; wherein each shaft is rotatably disposed within the sealed bushing and selectively retained within the cupped sleeve by the keeper; and wherein each shaft is selectively released from the cupped sleeve by the release.
