Cordless Combo Review

DEWALT DC984IA Heavy Duty 14.4-Volt Ni-Cad Cordless 2-Tool Combo Kit

Just got this in the mail today and used it in the evening drill. So far, great job. I'm building a house and now I can say how useful these exercises. The unit impact drill screws quickly and easily. Countertops to build my house and drive the screws into the plywood to give the wood with amazing speed. The other nice thing about this exercise is that the couple "breaks" when the screw is flush with the wood. While it is still possible to drive the screwdeeper, if you wish. The hammer drill also works great. I heard this evening to take a drill to door to my cellar door. The certainty that the screws are bolt catch so long that you have to drill into the foundation. No problem with that drill. The other thing that I love this drill is the ease with which tighten the tip on the drill. With one hand you can put on the drill … as I said, I'm loving it. I would recommend this package to anyone on the market for a new tip.A +.

Here’s a nice combo that features the best in drivers. Torque, speed and great ergonomics: DeWalt pulled it all together in this 14.4-volt XRP 1/2-inch drill/driver. Even at its peak 450 inch-pounds of torque, you feel no twist. We’re impressed, too, with the patented three-speed transmission for whatever material you’re drilling into. Its max speed of 1,800 rpm is 29 percent faster than high speed. In hammerdrill mode, you’ve got 30,600 blows per minute in your hands. We like the all-metal ratcheting chuck with carbide jaws because we’ve had a bit slip every now and then, and the jaws help keep a tight grip on the shank. It’s well-balanced, comfortable to grip and a joy to use.

The impact driver is equally impressive, and you won’t realize how much you’ve needed one until you have one. It’s super compact and surprisingly lightweight, easing the burden on your arm and letting you get into the tightest workspace. Once you’re in there, you’ve got an amazing 1,150 inch-pounds of torque in your hand, making short work of even the biggest fasteners without taking a toll on your body. Great in the shop or on the jobsite.–Kris Jensen-Van Heste
