Tools and Hardware Reviews of Milwaukee 0617-24 14.4-Volt Ni-Cad 1/2-Inch Cordless Hammer Drill/Driver KitCustomer Review: Great Drill! Summary: 5 Stars
I owned a Black & Decker cordless NiCd drill before this one. I used it for about 3 years until the batteries started to fade. Instead of buying new batteries I decided to buy a new drill.
I wanted something less plastic and more manly. Off all the drills I picked up in the store, this one felt the best. The metal chuck is awesome. You can tighten the chuck with just one hand, without spinning the drill.
I also wanted a drill that more consistently met its torque settings. That is, its tightening torque would be predictable and not sloppy like the B&D. This one seems to me to do a much better job of that. I did not test it with any special equipment. Just my impression.
I wanted a drill whose charger told you when the charge was finished. This one does.
I decided on the NiCd because I did not want to pay the extra cost for Lithium or NiMH. One other impression I have is that NiCd works better when its ben left out in the cold all night, than does Lithium. My Lithium drill has to warm up before it starts acting right. This one acts right no matter the temperature. I assumed that was due to the battery.
From this point on, I will do my best to buy Milwaukee tools. I love the feel and performance of this drill.
