Excellent drill with hybrid chuck

Very good drill. The first one I got had serious cartridge movement issues. The exchange went well, but the clutch got used to it a bit. Since it works, I keep it to myself. Some reviews say the light doesn't come on until you start drilling, but actually a slight pull of the trigger turns the light on before the drill has started. So do not worry. Drill sand directly without battery what you need. The drill is straight, which is what I prefer. The drill has a lot of torque, and high speed is, well, high speed. It has a brushless motor. You have space for a screwdriver and a magnet to hang some extra items you may need when you are on the stairs. For this type of drill, it is compact and light. It's not light, it's relatively light for 18V with decent torque. One cool thing is that the chuck has a concealed quarter inch driver mount so you don't have to tighten the bit to use 1/4 inch drivers or bits. inch driver ends. Just push the racquet and it locks into place. It has two speeds. Torque and speed are sufficient for any type of drilling. My drill came with the kit so it may not be under warranty. But the price is unbeatable. I got the new batteries separately which have a charge indicator right on the battery - I recommend you look for that as the drill doesn't have a power indicator. Alternatively, there are very cheap aftermarket batteries with integrated LED indicators. For the price unbeatable. I also looked at Hitachi, it's a really good drill. I picked this one because it has a hybrid cartridge.
