Technical Details
- Two 3.5 Amp NiMH battery packs for long run time
- Delivers 293 in./lbs. of torque
- 1/2-inch keyless chuck handles larger bits
- 55-minute charge save time
- Compact and lightweight for comfortable all-day use
Impressively compact, lightweight, and comfortable to use, Panasonic's 12-volt drill/driver fits into tight spaces where other bulkier drills won't. The 3.5 amp NiMH batteries deliver impressive 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 293 inch-pounds of torque, while the motor's speed control allows full torque delivery at any speed, with dual speed ranges of 0 to 400 and 1 to 1,300 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 8-3/16 inches) and how comfortable it feels in your hand. The soft-pad grip provides extra cushion and the 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. 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 two of Panasonic's long-lasting 3.5 amp NiMH batteries, a universal charger, and a hard-plastic carrying case. --Jon Groebner
From the Manufacturer
This 12-volt version is just like its big brother, only a little lighter in the hand and on the pocketbook. 293 in/lbs. of torque, 8-3/16-inch chassis length and just over 4 pounds. It flat-lines its 12-volt competition and runs longer per application than most of its 18-volt rivals. Two speed ranges 0-400 / 1/1300 rpm. Don't be fooled by its size, its power will make a believer out of you.
