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.

This review is from: Hitachi DS14DFL 14-2/5-Volt Lithium Ion Drill Kit (Tools & Home Improvement) Good quality drill with light weight and long battery power. The only complaint that i had is the chuck. It seems to have a slight wobble. Otherwise it will be a five stars 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Hitachi DS14DFL 14-2/5-Volt Lithium Ion Drill Kit (Tools & Home Improvement) Don't take this tool to be more than it is; a 3/8in medium duty drill driver, but it is a featherweight delight to use. I have driven #4 screws into oak with very steady positive control, and drilled sizable holes in a concrete wall to receive anchors. Its going to be hard for my other five drills to get my attention. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful: By das enigma "das enigma" (Northern VA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Hitachi DS14DFL 14-2/5-Volt Lithium Ion Drill Kit (Tools & Home Improvement) I have had this drill for about 4 months now, I like using it, but when I try and use a bit that does have flat sides, ie a smaller than 1/4 it is impossible to get the chuck tight enough to properly hold the bit.
Other than that it is a good product. |
