I have had my share of “cheap” cordless drills and finally decided to spend my money for a professional model.
And this 12 volt qualifies. This is a fairly heavy 12 volt, but metal gears and a high quality motor weigh more then plastic.
With two Ni-MH battery nickel-metal hydride batteries, this baby has great battery capacity and a longer run time then other battery types. One good thing (or bad, depends) is when the batteries run out of juice, thats it, they run strong right up to the end. Recharge time is fairly quick though, about 30 – 45 minutes. I always have the second battery charge up because of this.
This 12 volt runs circles around other 14.4 volt models I have owned. It has great turning power and the chuck locks tightly around bits.
Bottom line: this is quality tool, built to last many years and it just gives you confidence when you have it in your hand.
