The assignment is fantastic, it weighs beneath than the earlier version,and it has bigger torque ability with a light, that it didn't accept before. It amount at atomic 150 dollars cheaper. You can use it alert as continued account it alone weighs 4lbs.4oz. You accept the adequacy of conduct a little best because of it not counterbalance actual much.But the article is that it amount a accomplished lot less.Remember it is the dewalt cordless assignment 1/2in.,18volt baretool,. I purchased this through amazon.com.
I use this assignment every day. I actually accept several on the armpit forth with a lot of added DW 18volt tools. You could actually say that a lighter archetypal like the 14volt DeWalt is added acceptable for drywalling. And the hammerdrill action is alone advantageous for actual ablaze work, like conduct the casual ballast aperture in brick. It is actually not a acting for a absolute hammerdrill, alike a baby one like the Bosch bulldog. Nonetheless, it's actual accessible to accept a assignment like this in your holster. It can do 95% of what you charge if you're accomplishing basal residential home architecture or remodeling. If you're a hobbyist, you could apparently go with a lighter model, but this one absolutely takes a beating. I corruption it - use it for things that I shouldn't, like active a bond paddle for thinset - but it still runs beeline and clean, handles accomplishment assignment well. It's aloof a ample tradesman's standby. I don't see how you could go amiss with it.
I am a huge fan of my Milwaukee tools. I accept had a 3 apparatus set of 18 volt cordless accoutrement for at atomic 5 years. You could not barter me annihilation for them. In commendations to the array packs they don't assume to run bottomward any faster than any added and I accept DeWalt, Makita, Ryobi accoutrement (none of which approches the affection of Milwaukee). I do accept a approach as to why the Milwaukee packs arise to run bottomward faster though. These accoutrement are so abundant added heavily congenital it is my assumption that it takes added abstract to run them and accordingly put added burden on the batteries. A array corpuscle is a array cell. It doesn't amount who makes it. The catechism in my apperception is not the array (within reasonable limits) but how able-bodied the apparatus holds up and does its job. No one does this bigger than Milwaukee.
If the amount of backup is a botheration go to [...] for the best array refurbishing.

I calculation this in the top bristles purchases in my life. Extemely aerial quality, actual powerful. If you use this assignment in any accustomed way, you will be actual happy. If you use it in aberrant means (see below) you will be astounded.
It accomplished a bisected inch aperture in BRICK with bargain $.25 advised for a bang assignment (the $.25 didn't survive!). I alone managed to max out the assignment aggravating to abstract decayed 3/8 inch lag screws from advised 4 X 4's, but my accepted plug-into-the-wall-drill did no bigger (I was application an Adapter to drive hex ratchet sockets). When I say max out, there is some affectionate of assurance torque affair which keeps the assignment from harm.
The batteries aftermost a continued time, alike in abundant abuse.
This assignment passes the ULTIMATE customer test, in which the architect charge be smarter than the user, and apprehend the user's abridgement of expertise.
EXTRA Value: 2 batteries, continued warranty.
Wow.

I accept had this admixture assignment for about a year now and never had a problem. I use it mostly in appulse disciplinarian approach for copse screws.
The amazing affair about application an appulse disciplinarian for screws, as abounding bodies are award out, is the adeptness to aback out your screws after damage! I use soft, big-ticket stainless animate screws and occasionally accept the allegation to alleviate one. application a duke spiral disciplinarian or accepted disciplinarian will accordingly aftereffect in stripping the spiral head, again you will allegation to resort to pliers or anchor grips. This takes time and absolutely destroys your spiral as able-bodied as generally causes accident to the apparent of the workpiece.
Enter the appulse driver, When the disciplinarian detects attrition it automatically enters bang approach and puts advanced force on the screw, alone axis as bound as it can after damage. This gives the appulse disciplinarian the different adeptness to aback out alike bendable screws after damage. The screws are absolutely reusable!
This amazing apparatus additionally has the adeptness to action as a two acceleration assignment and accepted driver, although the clamp is a little slippy, alike on the arch ambience it generally does not set a spiral properly. I end up application it in appulse disciplinarian approach for all my screws. You do accept to be accurate though, this affair will drive a spiral appropriate through your workpiece!
If you are attractive for an appulse assignment for conduct through concrete, you may appetite to get article beyond and beneath circuitous this is a 1/4" drill. A 1/2" or beyond assignment would be bigger ill-fitted for that purpose, and it would be a abashment to ruin this admirable allotment of equipment.
Also this actuality a 1/4" appulse disciplinarian it would acceptable be underpowered in the case of, say auto lug nuts, in which case you may appetite to go with article larger.
I accept for my accepted architecture and about the home use this is perfect, no allegation to lug about two tho three abstracted tools!
Hard to find, but a best buy in my opinion, the array activity is accomplished and the batteries allegation in beneath than 20 min!

The makita 18 volt bang assignment is the best assignment you can buy. I am an electrical architect and accept bought abounding of the chicken ones and the red ones but afterwards application them every alive day for 8 years we accept our opinions. The battrey activity is alert as long. It has added power. It is constucted bigger than the others and back its operating it doesn't feel like its activity to abatement apart. Makita started the cordless chic and their batteries acclimated to aftermost 7 years and amount alone Now some batteries aftermost 2 years and amount to replace! One analysis is account a thousand able opinions so go for it. Sid Sutherland, Sutherland Electric,Brush Prairie, WA

I am an avid DIY'er and I now own three of these DV18DL Lithium-Ion drills. They have more than enough torque to handle most any job I throw at them. Just make sure you have a firm grip on the drill or it will torque around in a heartbeat.
The only problems I have encountered with this drill are with the chuck screw that holds the chuck in place is inadequate and I broken three of them while using a 1" Ship Auger bit to drill through a 8" log I ran into while digging post holes for a split rail fence. Fortunately I had bought the drill from L_o_w_e_s and they exchanged them without issue. The manager I talked to said that he had notified Hitachi of the problem but that they were not going to beef up the screw.
I ordered a number of chuck screws for various makes & models of 1/2" drills (including corded drills) and discovered that the Dewalt reverse thread screw #605256-01. It is just a bit longer that the Hitachi OEM screw and I haven't broken one since replacing it ^_^.
The second issue is with the tabs on the case that hold the battery in place. I accidentally dropped it 4' onto a concrete floor. It landed flat on the bottom of the battery. The battery was fine, but both of the tabs that hold the battery in place busted off. Luckily I have a Hitachi repair shop a mile from my home here in Belmont, MI and they replaced the case free of charge within a week. But as I said I now have three of these and four of the 3.0ah batteries.
The last Drill I purchased was the bare (DV18DLP4) drill from Timberline Tools in July 2009 and they timely shipped one to me ^_^.
great value but questionable performance - John Salazar - chicago
I bought mine as part of a 9pc kit and I have a review under the 9pc as well. (check that review as it has other good info)
Was impressed with the unit at first as it works well for projects around the house and easily drives screws, drills holes etc..
BUT I recently tried using it to drill 2 2" holes using a Starret hole saw. I was trying to go up into a wall from the basement through 2 2x4's and a sheet of 3/4" plywood. I was able to drill through the sheet of ply with no problem stopped to remove the piece of wood from the hole saw and then started into the 2x4 part drill struggled for about 2-3 minutes before overheating and stopping. At first I thought it was the battery so I swapped the battery for the second one and that worked for another minute or so. After a few minutes of stop and go I made it through the first hole and started on the second. Well never made it even through the plywood before it was just too hot to use so I took a break, ate a quick lunch and tried again. I expected to be able to get back to it and finish I figured 15 minutes had passed and the drill should have cooled down well that wasn't the case it worked for 15 seconds before once again going into protect.
Finally I just said screw it went to the garage, got my Milwaukee 1/2" corded hammer drill and I swear 15 seconds later I was done.
Like I said this is a great drill if you are a homeowner but if you are going to use this as a professional MOVE ON! I replaced my Dewalt 18v 4 pc kit that needed new batts (4 batts would have cost me 0 plus my drill was damaged)
I got a good deal through Tyler tool 0 for the 9pc set (shipped). Should have spent the extra 0 and gotten the Dewalt 9pc and I would have had the right angle drill and a flashlight that works.

I was a little surprised to see only one review on this drill and a poor score. Breakdowns happen with tools, which is acceptable if the problem is not a pervasive one. I have owned many Dewalt tools and have only had one trigger go bad. With Dewalt's warranty it was quickly repaired.
As for tool performance, I love this drill as it combines driver, drill and hammerdrill functions in one tool. I build decks and use this drill for pilot holes, boring larger holes for carriage bolts, and drilling anchor bolt holes in concrete. While it isn't a perfect tool for these jobs, the versatility makes up for it. The only alternative is buying a dedicated tool for each use such as a dedicated hammerdrill. Because the drill is necessarily heavy to accomodate the hammerdrill function, I use a Dewalt Impact Driver for driving screws, as it is lighter and the impact function makes it so easy.
I have read negative reviews about the new Nano battery's shutdown feature when it reaches a certain discharge level. I happen to like this feature. The battery delivers almost full power right up to the point of shutdown, helping me avoid the temptation to keep driving with a weak battery and using the drill like a screwdriver on those last couple screws, which is hard on the drill. Second, I believe this feature will result in a longer cycle life for the battery, since the number one reason for premature battery failure is inconsistent charging cycles, i.e. charging the battery when it's half drained one time and totally dead the next time. With the Nano, I just run it till it stops, then charge. I know I am cycling it consistently.
Better then expected - E. Rountree - Montclair, NJ USA
This tool functions better then expected as drill, hammer drill, and driver. Dewalt has a very good product here.
Great drill Great price here on Amazon - D. Edinger - Jacksonville Fl
this is a great drill and I got a great price here on Amazon 135.24 with shipping guess I got lucky it posted about a hour before I bought it new with all items and case thanks Again

This is a great price for the Dewalt Hammerdrill. Cost me bucks for a new trigger on my current drill, so for not much more, I now have a new one as backup. Great since I already have a bunch of batteries and chargers and just needed a drill. Thanks guys!
