Product Description

Amazon.com

We admit it, we think this is the coolest-looking tool we've seen. Its curves just make you want to pick it up, and once you give in, you'll just say ahhhh. It fits the hand like a dream, but that's only the beginning. It leads its class in two categories—-torque and compactness, a wonderful combination. The power is incredible for a 12-volt tool, but we don't expect less from Hitachi. Of course, they've positioned the forward-reverse switch exactly where we want it. And we especially like the convenient one-touch belt clip that keeps this dynamo close at hand. You will not be disappointed.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

From the Manufacturer

Hitachi's new 12-Volt Impact Driver makes driving screws easier than ever. It’s all you need for small screws, tapping screws, wood screws, bolts and nuts. With 1,060 inch/pounds of torque and weighing in at just 3.7 pounds, this tool drives those supertankers without tweaking your wrists. Its compact profile means it handles well in tight quarters. Variable speeds from 0 to 2,600 rpm make this the right tool for jobs large and small. A removable armature and carbon brushes mean quicker maintenance and longer tool life. A one-touch belt hook keeps the tool close and your hands free. The forward/reverse button on this tool is conveniently located to minimize frustration during delicate operations. To ensure longer tool life, Hitachi designed this driver with a super heat-resistant motor, contact seal bearings, and a unique labyrinth ventilation system. And, with its sleekly curved ergonomic grip, this tool feels good in hand. Your purchase includes 2 batteries, a charger and a sturdy case.

5.0 out of 5 stars Glad to be my first driver!, July 29, 2004

This review is from: Hitachi WH12DM2 12 Volt Impact Driver (Tools & Home Improvement)
My manager (Burt) was the one who introduced me to this thing and I must say...I wish I had one of these for my other past projects. Simply....powerful, small, and some useful bells-and-whistles. Read up on all the reviews on this thing (FineHomebuilding, etc.) and it'll tell you over and over again...If you are interested in an impact driver, get this one!

5.0 out of 5 stars First driver I've owned., August 24, 2004
By 
This review is from: Hitachi WH12DM2 12 Volt Impact Driver (Tools & Home Improvement)
The Hitachi driver was a pleasant surprise. It's amazing how this 12V tool can drive the screws home. The tool is comfortable to hold, powerful and well built. I was slightly disappointed in the battery life, however this really isn't an issue as the second battery charges by the time the one in the tool runs out of gas. So there is no down time waiting on batteries to charge. In addition to the Hitachi driver, I own the 10 inch compound/sliding miter saw w/laser which has been a great investment after a purchase in which I did my homework.

This review is from: Hitachi WH12DM2 12 Volt Impact Driver (Tools & Home Improvement)
My dad got my drill in the mail before I could get it from him. he didn't want to give it back. Used with many project in building our home and on the farm. Battery pack lasts forever compared to other drivers. Thing is noisy as heck when the impact driver kicks in, but the power is amazing! Would recommend to anyone!
