You use a cordless drill almost every day. A good choice saves time and frustration. Here is what to look for.
Drill driver or hammer drill?
A standard drill driver is enough for driving screws and drilling in wood and metal. If you also need to drill in brick, choose a hammer drill. For concrete and a lot of drilling in stone, a rotary hammer with SDS bits is the better choice.
Choose one battery system
Most professionals work with 18 volt. Pick a brand and stick to that system: the same battery then also fits your impact driver, circular saw or jigsaw. That way you only need to buy the tool without a battery.
Brushless motor
A brushless motor gets more out of the same battery, runs cooler and wears less. If you use it daily, it pays off.
Battery and charger
The capacity in Ah tells you how long you can keep working on one battery. A smaller battery is lighter for overhead work, a larger one lasts longer. With two batteries and a fast charger, you never have to stop.
