I've had one of these for 10 years used heavily and still works like new, even the batteries. I'm getting another one while I can.

4.0 out of 5 stars 12 volt, but gets the job done., November 28, 2003

I didn't want a heavier drill so I got this one especially because it had a 1/2" chuck. It is nice and light as you would expect of a 12 volt. The test was going to be how much torgue it had. I used it for a project requiring running 1-1/4, 2 and 3" screws into wood studs. The drill did not hesitate and ran the screws in better than I had figured. You can tell this is a professional drill. I only have it for a few weeks so this review doesn't address long term use. Also, it is interesting how Panasonic and Makita are going to what is supposed to be the better NiMh batteries instead of the NiCd batteries which this drill has. The plastic exterior of the drill seems a little cheap but overall good.

Bought 2 batteries with this drill. Drill is super, great, powerful, reliable. BUT, one of the 2 batteries never did hold a charge for long. NOW, I can't locate another to replace it! What's with Hitachi??
