  • Tool Test: Cordless Drill/Drivers
  • TOOLS OF THE TRADE Magazine (4/5/2007)
  • Twenty years ago, I worked with a Makita 9.6-volt pistol-grip drill/driver, a standout among cordless tools of the time. Since those early models, things have come a long way: more powerful motors; keyless, one-handed chucks; variable-speed triggers; automatic brakes; and batteries that just keep improving. Another advancement has been the addition of a hammerdrill function to many standard drill/drivers. Because it doesn't add much weight, size, or cost, many are opting for the purchase of a convenient, all-in-one cordless hammerdrill/driver, even if masonry drilling is not going to be the tool's primary function. It's just nice to have the versatility.
