Makita 6271DWPE 12-Volt Cordless 3/8-Inch Driver/Drill Kit (does not include flashlight)

I owned 2 other Makitas. Batteries wore out before either item failed.
You can't go wrong for a 12 volt Cordless Makita. 12 volts is enough for me.

This portable drill motor fully explains why Makita tools are in great demand and are "top of the line" with the folks that use them.

Great torque available, batteries charge quickly, chuck works smoothly and with little wrist effort, powers through everything with power to spare, easy to clean, easy to maintain, the carrying case is really functional, useful and designed for its purpose. Arrived fully ready to charge and use on or ahead of the Amazon promised date. Do I seem happy with this item? Good, I hoped to convey that.

I am used to 18v tools but wanted something smaller and lighter for small spaces and to reduce fatigue from using the heavier drivers overhead to drill or put in screws. I thought I may have to scrifice power but not so. It has plenty of torque to do most any job. It is well balanced and I like the placement of the forward/reverse switch much better than the 18v DeWalt I have. The battery may not last quite as long as the 18v but the lighter weight is still worth the trade off.
