We built a house and did a little work ourselves, one thing was the wiring. My (then) weak 14.4 V WLAN adapter had too little power to hit 2x in a row. I didn't want to spend a lot on tools, but I needed something sturdier. It was ONLY ONE TICKET. !Now that the house is complete I don't use it that much anymore. It has become a tool for casual use when a cordless drill (now 18V) can't cut or when the job calls for an RA drill. This tool is a very powerful drill that appears to be well built. I intend to make it my heavy duty drill for years to come.
