Need opinion on cordless drills. Keep the Dewalt or return it?
It's time for me to seriously upgrade from a Black & Decker 7.2V(Target) drill to a new one with more power,speed,etc. I'll be using the drill for basic things such as putting up blinds to maybe down the road doing a deck,kitchen,sheetrock,etc. By know means am I going to build a house with it but I do want a drill that will be able to handle small to large projects. I'm looking for something that is lightweight as well.
I picked up a Dewalt 18V (DW959K2)from Lowes on sale for $119. It turns out that it's some sort of model that Lowes doesn't even carry now. I don't know if it's an older model or what. It doesn't have a rubber grip like the current Dewalts leading me to believe that it may not be comfortable after extended usage.
So my dilemma: Do I return it and check out one of the newer XRP Dewalts like the 14.4 or reg 18V(same as mine with grip?) or should I check out something newer like the Makita Lithium-ion 3.5 lps 18v,Panasonic 15.6 (3.5 NI-MH) or other brands? Help.
Personaly I would keep the one that you have. The XRP is $299 and way overkill for the typical DIYer. I have an 18-voly Ryobi-no padded grip and use it alot and it is comfortable and not fatiguing to use. I am just thinking of the price for feature trade you really do not get an extra $170 worth of features in my opinion with XRP. As for the NiMH batterry type..they may run longer between charges but that is about it-I get about 8 hours out of the Ryobi NiCADs
