WizeBuyz Take
Overall, customers rave about the power and compactness of this kit, especially when compared to other sub-compact cordless kits. The brushless motor ensures that it will last longer and perform better than brushed motors, and the 18-volt batteries have the fastest charge time in their category, meaning they will spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger. While the charger could benefit from a redesign, and the kit comes with a bag rather than a plastic box, these are small trade-offs for such powerful and compact tools.
Cons
The charger has options that can be selected only by rapidly putting a battery in and taking it out again
The kit comes with a bag rather than a plastic box
Pros
Ultra-compact and ergonomic design
Mechanical variable 2-speed transmission for a wide range of drilling and driving applications
BL Brushless Motor delivers 350 in.lbs. of Max Torque
Assist mode helps eliminate screw cam-out and cross threading
With the 18-Volt sub-compact driver-drill and impact driver, this combo kit introduces a new class of compact tools that have the size and weight of lower voltage tools but with the performance, power, and compatibility of 18-Volt. The drill-driver weighs only 2.8 lbs., while the impact driver weighs only 2.6 lbs. Both tools are incredibly compact and ergonomic, measuring 6-3/8" long, making it easy to use in tight spaces and reducing operator fatigue.
