Why Use Cordless Drills?

A cordless drill can almost be looked at as an essential tool for any handyman or DIY enthusiast. While some of the more basic tools are needed, such as screwdrivers, wrenches, hammers, and so on, cordless drills are highly versatile and can provide a great deal of power when the task calls for it. While corded drills are still more powerful and may be needed depending on the job, cordless drills are more convenient to use and often times more compact.

The batteries were always the issue with cordless drills. They died in a short period of time and took a long time to charge. This is one reason why corded drills were still favored for quite awhile, even after the release of cordless drills. However, the charge time on most DeWalt drills is now only 30 minutes, and Makita’s charge in only 15 minutes. A second battery is often included in the package, so you will always have a battery to use no matter what. They are also highly compact and lightweight, reducing user fatigue and making it easier for men and women to handle. They are also not nearly as expensive as they used to be, making them affordable to the general population.

As mentioned, the big advantage that corded drills have is power, but the 18V drills have enough for many jobs. Weight and charge time in particular are no longer a problem, except for the cheaper models.

If you only do small jobs around the house occasionally, then the cheap models are probably all you need. Deciding which drill to purchase in many ways comes down to what purpose you have for it. If you are a professional who does heavy-duty work, then will probably need at least an 18V drill/driver that comes with a hammer option, though 24V or even 36V drills may be required. For work around the house, a 12-18V drill will do the trick, though for most they can get away with something on the lower end.

While it may seem that the more power a cordless drill has, the better, but this is not always the case. More power does often mean more weight, and this could make it a lot tougher to handle while working on a project. Any drill with a weight under 4 pounds is ideal. Also, a more powerful drill means that it’s bigger, and a bigger drill is harder to fit into tight spots. Balance is also incredibly important for long-term use. A top-heavy drill or one with an angled handle can wear on your wrists after awhile.
