WHAT'S THIS?

Ranked #12 Tougher-job Cordless Drill/driver => Very Good
Consumer Reports, Volume 72, 2007-12

Consumer Reports testers ranked this as the 12th best tougher-job cordless drill/driver, with an evaluation score that puts it in the "very good" range. The speed is excellent, the power, run time, and charge time are very good, the handling is good, and the low noise level (at the user's ear) is fair. The tool weight is 5.6 pounds, the battery pack has 19.2 volts, the battery type is NiCd, the battery recharge time is 60 minutes, and there are two speed ranges.

This is by far the best cordless drill on the market. When I burn this one up, I'll buy another one just like it again! (More)
