Our Porter Cable drill motor has a hard, HARD life..., June 1, 2000
This drill motor is used in our appliance repair business and we also use it on the weekends as we rehab our 100 year old house. (We give the drill motor Sunday's off, but that's about it)It is the most powerful drill motor I've ever used. It is *superior* for driving screws (there are currently about 476,898 screws holding our old house together) and the battery lasts forever. When I say "driving screws" I mean DRIVING SCREWS. In our bathroom rehab, we used this PC Drill motor to drive several 4" x 1/4" lag bolts into tight old lumber and it did amazingly well. If you set the clutch at its highest setting, you can ring the heads right off screws. (if your hands are strong enough) It is *that* powerful a screw gun. This drill has been dropped, kicked, abused and it keeps on going. You can either buy a truck full of cheap-junk, frustrate-the-mess-out-of-you-low-rent drill motors, or you can buy ONE Porter Cable. We've been so impressed with this product we've started buying Porter Cable's other products as well. This gun has a good feel, good grip, LOTS OF POWER, (.wav file of grunting noise should go here) and the batteries last forever. I highly recommend it.
