Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
 The VPX1212X is powered by Black & Decker's powerful VPX Battery System. |
 Despite its considerable power, the VPX1212X is small enough to fit easily in your hand, and it stores almost anywhere. |
 This model comes complete with a carrying case that holds the drill and the included 20-piece accessory kit. |
Black & Decker's advanced, powerful VPX system guarantees the convenience of a rechargeable battery with maximum versatility. At the center of the VPX system is the 7-volt high-energy VPX rechargeable battery, which features breakthrough lithium-ion technology to generate more energy in a smaller package. The end result is a battery that's super-compact and 60-percent lighter than Black & Decker's Ni-Cad power tool batteries. And the VPX holds a charge longer, too -- so it's ready to work whenever you are.
With its versatile design and Black & Decker exclusive technology, a VPX battery is interchangeable with all the products in Black & Decker's growing VPX line. Swap out one battery for the flashlight, inflator, screwdriver, USB power source, cut saw, or 7-volt drill driver; or double the juice with two batteries to operate the 14-volt drill driver or the hand vac. And of course, every VXP battery and compatible product features the rugged, dependable construction you expect from an industry leader in home power tools.
About the 14-volt VPX cordless drill/driver
The new VPX1212X drill/driver from Black & Decker offers powerful drilling in a convenient, compact design. This rugged tool is just one more great offering from the revolutionary new VPX interchangeable lithium-ion battery system. Once you get started with the VPX system, it's easy to expand with other power tools, household devices, and electronic products like this one.
High voltage drills are typically heavy and often too bulky for tight spaces, but the VPX1212X has a compact design that gets the job done even in the most cramped working areas. And this drill may be pocket-sized, but don't underestimate it. This model delivers up to 80-percent more torque than Black & Decker's compact 14.4-volt drills, even though it's 15-percent smaller.
The VPX1212X offers two speeds: high-speed for fastening and assembly jobs, and low-speed for drilling and higher torque applications. It also features a 24-position clutch that lets you customize your torque settings, a variable-speed trigger for better control, and a metal single sleeve chuck with a knurled pattern to help improve gripping. The VPX1212X is powered by two 7-volt VPX batteries (included) that are interchangeable with other VPX products. It comes complete with a dual port charger and a sleek, form-fitting case -- plus a 20-piece accessory set.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Perfect solutions for us (1212 and 1201),
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Black & Decker VPX1212X Li-Ion 14.4-Volt VPX Drill Driver (Tools & Home Improvement)
No, I don't work for B&D. My garage is full of Makita and Ryobi, as it happens, but I bought the VPX 1201 (light, single battery, 2 fixed speeds) for my wife's household use because battery charge is a year or more - if she picks it up, it RUNS! We liked it so much that I bought the 1212 (dual battery, higher speed, variable) for myself to replace a Makita with dying NiCD cells that would have cost the price of the 1212 to replace.
I'd recommend both of these to anyone - the 1201 for modest jobs, the 1212 for more serious work. Tons of torque, ample speed, and excellent battery life. I understand the lithium-nanophosphate cells retain virtually 100% charge for more than a year, but obviously haven't tested that. Charge time in the dual charger is faster than it was for NiCD on the Makita. Weight is about the same, and the B&D feels just as solid and durable as any tool in my shop. The 1212 kit is elegant, but the accessories are typical low-grade bits, etc. Okay for trivial stuff but I replaced them for serious work. These are fine products - B&D has screwed up a few things, but not this time.

This review is from: Black & Decker VPX1212X Li-Ion 14.4-Volt VPX Drill Driver (Tools & Home Improvement)
This was a Christmas gift and was put to use on the 26th without even charging the batteries it completed the task at hand, installing overhead storage in the garage, with ease. I have recomended this drill to freinds. I was also lucky enough to get the VPX starter system as well and having the combination of a separate drill and power screwdriver was great. I can't say enough about these tools. Black and Decker really got it right with this offering. The tool are light yet don't feel cheap and the power to weight ratio is amazing.
