It’s easy to see why this drill was rated a 2006 “best buy” by a leading consumer magazine. Impressively compact, lightweight, and comfortable to use, Panasonic’s 15.6-volt drill/driver fits into tight spaces where other bulkier drills won’t. The 3-1/2 amp NiMH batteries deliver remarkable run time per charge, which is a big plus, especially if you need a tool for continuous use. What about power? This Panasonic packs up to 390 inch-pounds of torque–as much (if not more) than anyone needs in a cordless tool. The motor’s speed control allows full torque at any speed, so you can apply full torque while still maintaining control.
The tool features dual speed ranges of 65 to 450 and 200 to 1,450 rpm. The 1/2-inch chuck takes bigger bits. The first thing you notice about this tool, however, is how compact it is (the chassis measures only 8-1/2 inches) and how comfortable it feels in your hand. The soft-pad grip provides extra cushion and the tool’s balance is superb, two important features if you wield a cordless day in and day out. The tool lacks an onboard bit holder, but that’s about all it lacks. The 3-1/2 amp batteries are ventilated, so they last longer, delivering up to 1,200 charges and recharges.
This drill is a smart buy for plumbers, electricians, carpenters, and even woodworkers–in short, anyone who wants a small, compact drill that packs a lot of torque and is built to last. The package includes a 55-minute universal charger and hard-plastic carrying case. –Jon Groebner
