Any body have a cordless drill they like? I don't need one for full time work, just get tired of dragging a extension cord out every time I need to drill a hole. I have a craftsman 16.8 drill now that needs batteries. I can buy two batterys for around 100.00 dollars. I was thinking maybe I could get a new drill for that amount. Any suggestions, Stan

I have a Dewalt 18 volt 3 speed drill and a 12 volt drill, both have really good runtimes and a charge lasts a month or so with occasional use. Also has a quick charge time. these drills ahve been dropped repeaditly and abused, 3 years and same batteries and not one problem with these drills.

I saw where a guy took a small 12 volt lawnmower or motorcycle bat and used that. He direct wired in a cord to an old drill that the batteries had died. He put 12 or 15 foot of cord, or whatever he wanted. He then put clips on the bat end and clipped them to whatever 12 volt bat he had handy. If the drill was lets say 9.6 volts, it just ran a little faster. On the newer ones this might not work, but just thought I would throw it in. I have and old Craftsman I plan to do this to when I get the time.

For occasional use around the house I like the 18 volt Black & Decker Fire Storm. I have owned two. Got the last one with 2 batteries and dual charger for $79.00.

I got a Hitachi 18 volt at Lowes over a year ago. It's around $100, and I really like it. The batteries charge up fast, and hold the charge well, and it's powerful. I have a working farm, and I use it literally daily. I've had Dewalt, Porter Cable and other drills (can't remember the others). This is the best that I've had. It came with the usual 2 batteries and charger and has a flashlite that is really handy, too.

Right now at HD you can get a Ryobi Nine Volt w/charger and Kit of Drills ,Driver heads etc. for about $34.00. I think Ryobi for the Money is the best occasional use Cordless to be had. I have more than several and am very satisfied with them. If they quit [which they will do sooner or later] go get another one for less than $35.00 and be happy. Batteries can be had by special order for a reasonable price so I have extra's. Batteries seem to be the only down side. They do not last long I don't think,but maybe I am not too realistic about battery life.

I vote for the Porter Cable I've had a 12 volt for
over15 yrs still going on the same batteries, but they do need replacing and now that I have a cheap
Craftsman, I will send the batteries away to be
rebuilt.

Hey Stan,
If ya want a good'un, the Porter Cable 19.2v is an absolute torque monster... I've had mine for many years and it's still going strong! Only problem is they're a bit spendy! D

Howdy Chief, I've got a Craftsman 14.4 Volt that has more than all the ability I'll ever need and use. The batteries on the other hand don't seem to want to hold a charge very long, but that may be because I don't use it as often as I need to. I was in Sam's Club and notice the Kawasaki brand cordless drill there and it looked like a good drill for the money.

I was given a Craftsman 19.2 with a light and two batteries several years ago. I really like the drill, but the batteries did not last very long. I sent one to be rebuilt at Primecell about a year ago. That took care of that battery problem. I think it is much better than it was when new.

Hey there;
You might try,or should I say google,
rebuilt cordless batteries. Sometime they can be purchased,at less than new and last longer than new. Bob
God Bless
