In my job, sheetmetal mechanic portability and durability are two of the most important factors dealing with hand tools.The 3/8 and 1/2 inch porter cable drill meets those demands.With the dual gear switch you can adjust the speed and with the torque adjustment you can ensure to eb on the safe side when using the drill motor as a driver for screws or bolts 5/16 up to 1/2" I would recomend the 1/2 drive for larger bolts. Whether I'm on the ladder or a scissor jack I have enough other tools in my pouch so dragging cords chuck keys etc makes my job more hassle. The portability of this item is great,as for the flashlight now talking about brightness it will definately give you some serious light as well with its rotary head making it hands free it will stay on most horizontal surfaces or if needed upsidedown it may be secured with a small rope thereby allowing to have the light over your shoulder and rotate the head as required. Battery charges in a resonable time allowing for continuous use have one on the charger and oprating with one. The draw back I've found is the keyless chuck ensure chuck is tight or it will cause the dill bit or driver to stop while penetrating the material being drilled a regular key chuck would ensure proper tightness without jaw damage and a satisfied user Bothe portability and durability are highly accented byt eh sturdy case housing the dill light charger and battery. Sap it lock its less the weight of a tool box and it may be maintained in limited sopace such as a gan box taking up very little space as well protecting it from the enviroment dirt grease etc. Good choise

I've had this drill for over 2 yrs and just love it. I've tried the millwaukee and dewalt, give me the PC everytime.
