Tools and Hardware Reviews of Kawasaki 840110 Black 19.2-Volt Drill Kit
Customer Review: you get what you pay for
Summary: 2 Stars
It's a very affordable drill set.
Nice case, good accessories, and two batteries make it a good value.
The drill works as good as any I've owned.
But, the batteries are particularly bad.
The are NiCads and the won't hold a charge for 24-hours.
The are good for about 10-15 2" screws and then exhausted
It think that these are either the absolute worst batteries I've ever encountered, and I've been using them for years!
My suggestion is that you had better plan to have the batteries upgraded at a battery store, which will cost you about $45 per battery pack. I've done that for my DeWalt, which was not much better and now I can at least do more work. However, I suspect that this drill drains the battery, some how, because it really should hold a charge for a couple of week. Other NiCads do, so I'm very disappointed.
But, that's why this kit is cheap! It's great for kids and very, very light duty work.
I dropped mine from a roof top 3 times last year. The battery was kicked out, but it's fine otherwise. Unexpected durability.
