About the Hitachi DS14DFL
Hitachi's DS14DFL 14.4-volt lithium ion drill kit features a 1.5Ah lithium ion battery that can be charged and recharged up to 1,500 times. This battery makes the overall weight of the drill significantly lighter than other models (over 40 percent), and it's uniquely interchangeable with other Hitachi drills for even more flexibility and value.

The two-piece magnet motor delivers 274 in/lbs of torque to power through even the toughest jobs with ease. The DS14DFL comes with two 1.5Ah batteries that last approximately three times longer than NiMH or NiCd batteries, meaning you don't have to replace the batteries as often -- which will save you money. Hitachi's lithium ion batteries maintain a steady charge from the moment the trigger is pulled until it's time to recharge. For the full duration of the charge, you'll enjoy maximum performance.

The 2-speed transmission is controlled by a one-touch speed shift knob that lets you select between 0-400 or 0-1,200 RPMs. The DS14DFL is one of the most compact and lightweight cordless drills in its class, measuring just over 8-1/2 inches and weighing only 3-1/2 pounds. The new battery technology reduces the weight by approximately a pound, which lessens user fatigue and improves maneuverability in tight or overhead applications.

The 3/8-inch keyless chuck allows for quick and easy bit changes, and a 22-stage clutch is incorporated for high torque and precision driving applications. This model features Hitachi's patented five-position belt hook with integrated bit holder for added convenience. The new aggressive, ergonomic design -- coupled with a non-slip rubber grip -- provides more control, comfort and safety.

The unique charger from Hitachi will charge lithium ion batteries from 7.2 volts through 18 volts in just 30 minutes. The Universal charger's advanced proprietary technology provides Hitachi lithium ion batteries with overload and discharge protection to prevent overheating and power loss.

Summary: Customer Service? 2010-06-05
Comment: I've had two of these drills for about a year or so. Good power, lousy chuck (round bits and drills frequently fall out). Problem is with the battery charger that doesn't charge. Worse is the Customer Service that doesn't respond to my emails (the only route given in "Contact Us"). Is the charger faulty? What might I be doing wrong? Can't tell since I don't hear from them.

Summary: Best light duty drill you can buy 2010-02-04
Comment: I bought this when the batteries on my Hitachi 14.4 Ni/Cd drill wore out. I use it for electrical work, i.e. screwing in boxes, drilling holes in sheet metal studs, hanging light fixtures, etc. It's the best light duty drill you can buy. The belt clamp is a big selling point, as is the light weight of it. You can work with it hooked onto your pocket all day and it won't wear you out or pull your pants down. But the best thing about this drill is the battery life. Normal 14.4 battery life when you're using it, but when you put it away for a few months it holds a charge.

Summary: One bad battery, otherwise great 2009-11-26
Comment: I purchased this because I have the previous 14v. drill from Hitachi. The batteries were quite old and not holding a charge, so time to upgrade. The new Lithium batteries are compatible with the old drill, so >bonus< two drills for the price of one.

Great torque and speed. Great improvement over the old model. Highly recommend this for any DIY guy.

One problem -- one battery pack doesn't hold a charge. It is being repaired now (hopefully free) by a Hitachi repair shop.

Summary: Excellent drill 2008-08-05
Comment: I bought this drill last year when I started a house renovation, and now I am into two more renos. This thing is incredibly powerful for its weight. I can use it all day without fatigue, the batteries last a long time and are quick to recharge. Chuck will loosen sometimes, however.
