    If you are looking for an economical general use cordless drill, you might want to check out his model. It is powered by a 12 volt battery, and develops decent torque (rated at 105 inch/pounds) for light to moderate tasks. This drill is probably not suited for heavy commercial construction applications, as it does not reach high speeds, or develop high torque, and the battery life is probably not long enough to last you through a full day of heavy duty use.

    For the casual user however, the drill may meet your needs. The frame is on the smaller side, and it is relatively lightweight. It is simple to use, as the motor operates in forward or reverse, controlled by a switch in the handle. With the proper bit, it can handle materials like plastics, wood, CMU, and some metals.

    The torque is adjustable to six different levels. At the maximum setting, (using a masonry bit), the drill is supposed to be able to handle concrete walls. When you intend to drill through dense material, keep in mind that the bits are locked down by hand tightening the chuck (there is no key), so if the chuck is not tight enough, it may free spin if your bit gets stuck.

    The battery needs to be attached to the drill to be charged. Power is plugged into a jack on the back of the handle. A double sided screwdriver bit, is attached to a clip on the drill body. The drill comes with a no frills nylon carrying case, and a few assorted bits. For light tasks, this lightweight tool could be a good option, but repeating again, this drill is not designed for high speed, or heavy torque applications. If you intend to do mostly heavy duty tasks, you would be better off buying a more powerful unit, that operates at higher voltage.
