Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The best just got better. Fast and powerful, with a 12-volt (2.6 Ah, NI-MH) battery, this cordless impact driver runs up to 2X longer than competitive brands. The compact design has an overall length of only 6-5/8", yet weighs only 3.3 lbs. The high-performance Makita motor lasts longer and produces a maximum tightening torque of 887 in./lbs. (twice the power of most 18V Driver-Drills). The 6916 Impact Driver is also equipped with externally accessible brushes for easy maintenance, a magnesium gear housing for greater durability, and an ergonomically designed rubber grip for improved operator control. This driver also boasts an electric brake for faster stopping of the bit along and a "True" variable speed trigger for controlled driving starts. Best of all, it is fitted with an L.E.D. to help illuminate the work surface. Your purchase includes two batteries, charger and case.

This review is from: Makita 6916FDWDE1 12 Volt Impact Driver Kit with L.E.D., includes Bonus 12 Volt Mforce Cordless Drill (Tools & Home Improvement)

the impact driver is great, smooth control and variable speed, everything you'd expect.
But I'm not writing to tell you about the impact driver.
I bought this two weeks ago and didn't get the bonus drill, after many emails and various people trying to tell me I didn't see this offer in Toolcrib catalog #505 (they even tried telling me the offer expired 12.31.04 and hadn't been publicised since then) all I got was a poor $20 coupon for my time and in an attempt to retain my business.
Amazon shouldn't sell tools, they are a bookshop.
So I kept the driver as it's already earning me money and was going to let the whole thing go, but amongst the lies I was told it was said that the offer would be removed from the website to prevent other people getting ripped off, and yet here it still is.
