DeWalt DC926LA (Details)

Purchase Buzz Reviews Grade Shop at   $80.00 Newsgroup Buzz (2 Reviews) Support Toolcritic Buy from our Affiliates

This is a pretty sweet little tool for the price. It will fit into a holster on your hip without dragging your pants down and still handle most small jobs. There may be better tools in this category, but this is not where I would spend the big bucks. Save your money for a high-end 18V (or higher) tool and use this as your second drill.
