What too look at when selecting a cordless drill
There are a few things that you need too consider when picking a drill
1 Of course is value for money. This is important because nobody wants to be spending a fortune on something thats no good or wont last very long.
2 I look at durability under extreme circumstances how will the product hold up, for example if you are going to use it all day every day how long will it last .Will its efficiency lower over time.
3 The battery life and charge time ( how long it will take to charge the battery) the best battery packs for cordless drills are of course lithium-ion or Nicad battery packs. (most major drill manufacturers mainly use these two types)
4 The weight of the cordless itself. You might not consider this an important factor to consider but let me assure you if you are going to use the tool for long periods of time or on big projects where the drill is going to be in your hands alot, the weight of it is has a great impact. For example if you have a heavy cordless you may have to stop every 15-30 minutes or so for a rest as your arm will become fatigued. Where as if you go for a lighter option you could go for a much longer period without rest which would increase the amount of work you are able to do at any one time.
5 The power and performance of the cordless. Now there is no point going to your local builders merchant or store and purchasing a drill fo $30 thinking you have just had a bargain then getting home trying to use it and finding out it does’nt have the balls to drill through what you intented. There are a few things you need too look at here. The voltage of the drill , its max torque and its rotations per minute (rpm) also how many individual settings it has.
Some suggestions on what you may want to consider
For quality drills you want to be looking at makes like – Dewalt, Makita, and Bosh in my opinion, a good place for reviews and specs on many cordless drill and other things try http://www.ground2roof.com/product-reviews/cordless-drills/makita-drills/makita-lxfd01cw-18-volt-compact-lithium-ion-cordless-12-inch-driver-drill-kit for a review on the Makita LXFD01CW a brilliant cordless.
