Makita DF330DW 10.8-Volt Ultra Compact Lithium-Ion Cordless 3/8-Inch Driver-Drill Kit Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)As a furniture builder I really don't have the need for the big and powerful drills except for a few occasions.This little drill is just the thing for the medium to light duty drilling that I need to do.
there are just a few things that I want to mention that may help others.First the size is just right.It is light weight and short. Easy to get into small places.The lithium batteries hold a charge for a long time and give the drill plenty of power. I have not had the problem with the time it takes to recharge the batteries. Once charged, they last long time.Second the direction switch is out of the way yet close enough that you don't have to search for it. I had a milwaukee 12v screwdriver and the swithc was always in the way. Either it was mid setting which locked the trigger or it was set at the wrong direction. It was very frustrating. Third the grip gives you good control and does not get tiresome with extended use. And last, the LED light is a great help when working inside a cabinet where there is little light to see.
I have the screwdriver also and like that just as well. Don't let the 10.8 vs 12 volt label fool you. With either of these tools you get you will get just as much run time as the 12volts.
