Bosch 34618 18-Volt 1/2-Inch CompactTough Drill/Driver Kit Review
It's time to graduate from your aging drill/driver to something that is so powerful that when you hold it in your hand you feel invincible. Yes, super-dude, you need the power of the 18-volt Bosch 34618 1/2-inch drill driver kit from now till the end of time. When Bosch set out to make a more power-enabled tool they increased the RPM, up to 150 more than other models and gave it lots of torque to make you feel you could work forever. The 20+1 clutch enables you to control the driving and drilling power that this unit has to offer. The single sleeve, 1/2-inch chuck is excellent for one-handed big changes and provides increased drill bit capacity for a variety of projects. --Jim DunnBosch 34618 18-Volt 1/2-Inch CompactTough Drill/Driver Kit Customer reviews

It is now my "go to" drill.6 of 7 people found the following review helpful.light and strong DrillBy Gary J. GillottiThe Bosch 34618 I bought recently is very light and well balanced, I usually get larger drills for the power but this one performs as well as the larger models. I found that you need to use the torque settings or the driver setting will rip up your screw heads, it's quite powerful. I will be buying more of this model for my maintenance crew.6 of 7 people found the following review helpful.Great drillBy Doc McElroyWell balanced and strong for the 18 volt size. This is also lighter than a 14.4 volt Dewalt I have. Due to the design, it stands up even with a heavy bit in the chuck. I am only sorry I didn't buy two or three when they went on sale.See all 6 customer reviews...Bosch 34618 18-Volt 1/2-Inch CompactTough Drill/Driver Kit
