blows away the hefty 12 Volt NiCad Dewalt i replaced it with (after 2 years both batteries had stopped holding a charge on the Dewalt).i removed 2 large screws from a wall stud that the dewalt had struggled to insert.the makita zipped them both right out like they were screwed into drywall only.the batteries charge quickly.

one note, this is "reconditioned" but i expected that to mean it would be slightly used if at all but would be cleaned to like-new condition.not so!this thing was like it had just come off of a jobsite it had worked at for the past month.dirty, with light scratches all over.

it is still, such a quality drill with awesome features (keyless chuck is perfectly designed), is very compact and lightweight for a 18V powerhouse drill that i don't mind how used it is.i know it will last for years with the lithium ion batteries.

Makita LXT407 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless 4-Piece Combo Kit Review

(More customer reviews)
I use my tools heavily.We had a special project on which we needed 3 new battery powered drills.I bought this kit that had the 2 Makita drills in it and a Black and Decker drill.All of the drills have 18 volt lithium batteries.We used each drill doing the same task for the same amount of time over 3 contiuous days.The B&D battery had to be recharged after each day.The Makita batteries went all 3 days without a charge and still had a lot of power left.

One of the Makita batteries was also used to saw thru some 2X4s with the sawsall.I have a Makita AC powered sawsall and the new battery powered unit is as powerful as the AC unit.The battery powered sawsall has a new blade changing feature which makes blade changing super easy because no tools are envolved.

The bag that comes with the kit is really heavy duty and should last for years.It is big enough to add a lot of other stuff if you need to.It is so well made and nice looking, you may want to use it as a travel bag instead of a tool hauler.

Check for Internet pricing.I paid $288 with shipping.

DeWALT DC925KA Heavy-Duty XRP 18-Volt Ni-Cad 1/2-Inch Hammerdrill/Drill/Driver Kit Review

DeWALT DC925KA Heavy-Duty XRP 18-Volt Ni-Cad 1/2 inch  Hammerdrill/Drill/Driver Kit
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is the drill you want if you never want to buy another drill of this size and power again. Provided you don't care that it may be a little banged up (witch it will become if you do "really use it"). This drill set and case easily retailed over $250. The hammer setting is perfect for making small holes (say 1/4" or less) in masonry for anchors or drilling small to medium size holes for what ever reason in hard materials (having a bit centered and for a high blows per minute drill helps too!). This drill can easily make 5/8 holes in 1/2 wafer board and 2/4's with a (sharp) auger bit no problem . It has plenty of torque and (with the XRP bat) battery life for anything you logically think it would handle. 3 speeds to let you fool around with how fast you want to go. It can handle brick dust and being dropped on the ground as well as hanging on a ladder from the chuck. I have seen this particular dewalt drill set (and the one without a hammer setting) used buy many in the construction field.

This is a great deal and should not be passed up for someone who needs to buy a good quality light-heavyduty drill once.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The drill is powerful and the hammer action is good for cement and brick fastner drilling.My only gripe is the chuck doesn't bite as hard as my Dewalt.The impact fastner is a beast!Light compact and battery last a really long time.I'm a general contractor and have Dewalt and Milwaukee lithium tools to compare.Makita and Dewalt win this round of lithium tools. Tool quality is excellent.The LED light and belt clip are handy.

This tool has gotten fantastic reviews.Ignore the few bad ones.This tool is heavy duty and can handle my punishment as a contractor.We use it every day.It is not made for computer nerds that can build computers yet complain about the reverse switch.

It's amazing how ignorant some customers can be.
"The tool is too powerful and strips screws".....really?? It is a heavy duty tool with over 1330 in.lbs of torque.
"It is less powerful than my Milwaukee 28Volt".......really?Wanna compare apples to oranges?
"It takes two hands to change the hammer to drill action"......again really???What is your other hand doing and how hard, how often do you change from hammer to drill??

Milwaukee 48-59-2818 18-Volt to 28-Volt Lithium-Ion and NiCad Slide Style 1-Hour Battery Charger Review

This charger is way better at topping off and keeping older Milwaukee NiCads charged then the older charger model. I highly recommend this as an upgrade to those using the older style charger that at least in my case would charge the battery then let it run down if it set on the charger unused for a week because it didn't have a proper top off trickle charge feature. This charger also seems to get a bit more juice into the Ni-cads as well, and of course it also charged the lithium ion batteries that are very powerful.

Product Description:
The Milwaukee 18-to-28-Volt Universal Battery Charger charges both Li-Ion and Ni-Cad batteries from 18-to-28-volts. This universal charger makes the transition from Ni-Cad to newer Li-Ion batteries seamless by providing single charger simplicity. The charger will charge Li-ion batteries in 1-hour and Ni-Cad batteries in 40-minutes. Ni-Cad packs will charge 20-minutes faster on this charger than the current Milwaukee Ni-Cad-only chargers. The charger also features a top-off conditioning mode that automatically conditions 18-volt Ni-Cad battery cells for extended battery life. Automatic temperature monitoring continually monitors the battery's temperature and deliverers the appropriate current for that temperature. Progressive charge indication battery LEDs light up incrementally as the battery is charged. This feature provides a quick indication of remaining charge time or if the pack is charged enough for the job at hand. A pass-through plug conserves valuable outlet space and rubberized feet keeps the charger in place.

These have been fantastic.There seems to be no memory problems and so far have lasted for many charges. As stated earlier they have a better clip-in system, which is definitely an improve.But to be fair I only had the old XR batteries fall out once. The run time has also improved.

I highly suggest upgrading to the XRPs if you only have the old ones.But when purchasing them just buy the 2 pack.For about $20 to $25 more you get the second battery.
