Amazon.com Review
This kit combines Makita's much-touted 14.4-volt cordless drill with a stout little job site flashlight that runs off the same long-life NiMH battery. Compared to standard nickel-cadmium batteries, the enviromentally friendly NiMH gives you 30% longer run time and boasts an impressive 2.2 amp hrs. The drill is a little heavier than some of its competitors, but its ergonomic design and extremely well-balanced construction more than make up for its extra weight. In fact, this drill, which delivers the most torque of any drill in its class, was the winner of Popular Science's Best of What's New award in December 1998. The drill's distinctive tip-up design makes for easy use all day either overhead or at shoulder height. Clutch settings change easily, too, and the amount of trigger response in both speed settings (up to the maximum 1,300 rpm) caught our attention. In particular, the Makita has remarkable touch at slow speeds--unlike many other similar drills--which of course lets you start drilling and driving with maximum control. The tight-gripping, 3/8-inch keyless chuck system works great. And--like practically everyone else in the world--we really appreciate the attention to detail and quality in Makita's legendary motor. Simply put, this is a tool designed for extended use under the toughest job site conditions. The tool's brushes are accessible from the outside, too, and easily replaced--a handy feature you won't find with other brands. --Justin Paul
