Craftsman Professional 20 volt Lithium-Ion Drill/Driver with LED Work Light Review

I bought this Craftsman Pro 20V lithium drill combo (drill, drill handle, light, charger, batteries, carrying case) over a year and a half ago and am glad I did.  It replaced a smaller voltage Craftsman Ni-Cad model as the batteries just wouldn't last.

I have ongoing projects of replacing some decking and the fencing in my large backyard.  The projects stretched out over time and it is nice to be able to pick up the drill and be ready to go regardless of how long the drill has been sitting idle.  The lights on the front of the battery indicating the charge level are great for determining how much juice is left in the battery.  Charging is so rapid that even if I were to run out both batteries, I'm back in business in no time.  (Good excuse for a break, hehehe.)

The included bit that comes with the drill (flat head on one end, phillips on the other) is OK, but the phillips end doesn't last too long.  It's easy enough to buy a replacement.  The drill chuck is convenient and easy when changing bits.  I really have put this to good use and haven't experienced any problems beyond the bit.  I'd say this product is a winner.
