Factory-Reconditioned RIDGID ZRR8411503 X2 18-Volt Cordless 1/2-Inch Hammer Drill

I like reconditioned tools, and this one works great.I got this drill to help with a remodel, and it's been working great plenty of power and quick recharging batteries. The only thing that is a drawback is that it's a little heavy for extended use.
