Hitachi DV14DL 14.4-Volt, Great at home for an ex-pro

Great at home for an ex-pro
I’m an retired construction project manager(commercial/industrial) and I fully researched this Hitachi drill/driver before I purchased it. It’s replacing a great 13 year old Porter Cable 12V d/d (with Magna-Quench!), for which good batteries and chargers are now all but non-existent.
In the month I’ve had the [...]

Makita BDF452 18-Volt, GREAT drill!

GREAT drill!
I have this kit along with the Makita BDF452HW kit and love them both to pieces. Both are solid performers in every sense of the word and are very light as well. I have worked the crap out of both of them and they just keep asking for more. You simply cannot go wrong [...]

Great set of tools - Buy them
I use my tools heavily. We had a special project on which we needed 3 new battery powered drills. I bought this kit that had the 2 Makita drills in it and a Black and Decker drill. All of the drills have 18 volt lithium batteries. [...]

My Favorite Tool - A Carpenters’ honest opinion
I’ve owned this Makita impact gun for over three years and still love it. I’m a professional carpenter/handyman and this tool by far is the one I use most. It’s the most comfortable cordless drill I’ve ever handled (and I’ve owned at least seven). It will drive 3 [...]

Black & Decker PP360, Very Good Screwdriver

Very Good Screwdriver
I have a Denali rechargeable screwdriver set which I like, but the screwdriver doesn’t have much power. This one beats it hands-down. The rotating drive feature works fine, but I haven’t found a situation where it makes much difference. The important thing for me is that the screwdriver is powerful [...]

Makita BHP454 18-Volt, Believe the hype

Believe the hype
Popular Mechanics’ glowing review of this drill is well deserved in my opinion. It is light, fast, well-balanced, and easy to use. Bosch’s competing model (17618-01) feels faster and stronger, but it also weighs a ton, is a bit lengthy, requires you to switch between driving and drilling modes by rotating the 25 [...]

Hitachi DS18DL 18-Volt, New technology - best drill..

New technology - best drill ever!
I have purchased several brands of battery powered drills for installing electrical lines in new construction, so I tend to use my cordless drills more than most. This Hitachi is hands down the best I’ve ever used. Not only the superior torque, but the battery life is incredible. [...]

DEWALT DC988KA 18-Volt, hammer drill vs rotary..

hammer drill vs rotary hammer
a note to ‘R. Saccenti’: there is a big difference between hammer drills and rotary hammer drills. hammer-drills, like this cordless dewalt use 2 grooved plates that rotate opposite of each other. when they slip and the grooves connect, a bang is heard. this “hammers” the chuck, which in turn, drives [...]
