For many jobs, a small cordless drill is you need. But if you have more demanding projects in mind, DeWalt's 18-volt 3/8-inch cordless compact drill/driver can get the job done. The DeWalt drill/driver operates at 0-450 and 0-1,500 rpm and delivers up to 400 in./lbs. of muscle to bore through wood, metal or masonry. With an all-metal 5-5-5 planetary gear transmission, this workhorse is built to last. But brute force is by no means the DeWalt's only charm. Handy features like an 18-position adjustable clutch, 3/8-inch keyless ratcheting chuck, integrated lock-off button, and electric brake make this tool as versatile as it is strong. Add to that a comfortable grip, light weight (just 4.5 pounds) and ergonomic design, and you have a pretty good contender in the 18-volt class.--Carl ThressDEWALT DW929K-2 18-Volt 3/8-Inch Cordless Compact Drill/Driver KitDeWalt has redesigned its compact line of drill/drivers to produce more torque and provide increased durability.

It fits comfortably in your hand and is very well balanced, unlike the Makita, which is a good drill, but is not well balanced. 18V is a must - don't waste time with anything less. An extra plus - it is made in the USA by a US owned company.15 of 15 people found the following review helpful.DeWalt Model 929 DrillBy A CustomerI have a number of DeWalt 18 volt tools. I never bought their 18 volt drill because it is so heavy. This compact model 929 is 18 volts but uses thinner batteries that are lighter than XP batteries. I am totally pleased with this drill. It is powerful, light, easy to handle and the chuck tights easily. It will accept XP battery packs for longer run time.18 of 20 people found the following review helpful.First rate drill.By M. EmmeBoy this drill just takes what ever you can dish out to it and laughs. I have worked it hard over the time that I owned it and had no problems at all. The battey life is good, and in my opinion about the same as other drills of its size. You have one pack in the charger and the other in the drill and all will be fine. It is of solid construction and a high quality of finish (as most DeWalt tools). The keyless ratcheting chuck works well. While they do not give them away, I think for the money you get a very good quality item that will out perform others in its class.See all 17 customer reviews...
