Product Description

If you’re tired of practically bench-pressing an 18-volt cordless for simple driving jobs, we think you’ll love this little powerhouse. At a mere 3.4 pounds, it’s super compact and light as a feather but still plenty powerful enough for just about any drilling or driving task at hand.

The 926-2 drives deck and drywall screws like a charm with virtually no fatigue, even if you’re working at shoulder height and above. That’s particularly good news because you get a lot of mileage out of a charge, and there are two batteries along with a one-hour charger, this drill’s never out of commission, so neither are you. The speed ranges are perfect for cabinet work, furniture assembly and do-it-yourself projects. It’s unmistakably DeWalt quality, with all-metal gears, a 15-position clutch and a heavy-duty keyless chuck. With 200 inch-pounds of torque, you’re got half the power of a drill that weighs (and costs) two to three times as much. For the contractor and other professionals, we think this is a great addition to your toolbox, and for the homeowner and do-it-yourselfer, it’s all the drill you need.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

5.0 out of 5 stars I would give it six stars if I could!!!, August 17, 2000

By	Scott Pointon "Former Marine, Librarian, Wood... (Crest Hill, IL United States) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

I have owned this drill for many years and it still works like new. In the age of 18v and greater cordless power, people are forgetting what a great drill this is - at about half the weight of its big brothers. Although I am not a contractor using my drill all day every day, it has seen hard use. I have used it exclusively to renovate two houses (including drywall hanging), build a 24x45 pole barn, and countless woodworking and home repair projects. If this drill ever dies I will buy the exact same product to replace it. I can't think of a better testimonial than that.

5.0 out of 5 stars Now I Am Looking for Projects, June 13, 2000

By	Cliff Hutson "The Marmot" (Southern California) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

When it became necessary to replace my eleven year old Makita I naturally assumed that I would buy another one until I went shopping and came across this DeWalt.

I feel that this is the perfect drill for the homeowner or DIYer. It has more than adequate power for most projects, it is light weight, and is well balanced. I actually enjoy using it and have taken to looking for things to do so than I have an excuse to fire it up and get to work. (This amazes my wife as normally I am not very enthusiastic about maintenance.) The extra battery pack and one hour charger are a definite plus, I doubt if one could get to the point where he/she would be moving fast enough so that the next battery would not be charged and ready to go.

If you need a 9.6 volt drill, you can't go wrong with this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best 9.6 Volt Drill for the Money, January 11, 2000

By A Customer

I purchased the DeWalt drill because of the DeWalt name and was not disappointed at all. As stated by another customer review, it is made by Black and Decker but is far superior than the Black and Decker model. For example, the DeWalt comes with two, count them, two batteries. The Black and Decker Firestorm only has one. That itself is worth about 35 bucks for the second battery. Also the DeWalt 926k-2 turns out about 200in/lbs of torque. Most other 9.6V models I looked at barely reach 150 in/lbs of torque. I could not find anywhere, not even on the Black and Decker web page, how much torque the 9.6V Firestorm produces. (I guess it must not be that Great) Also the Dewalt 9.6V has a two speed gear box, 0-300/0-1100. With the Firestorm Model you have to get the 14.4V drill to get the two speed gear box. In all my research looking for a good multi-purpose drill that also can perform well, has a good amount of torque, and that is not going to need replacing next week, the Dewalt came out ahead in my opionon.
