Tools and Hardware Reviews of Panasonic EY6405FQKW 12-Volt Ni-Cad 3/8-Inch Cordless Drill/Driver KitCustomer Review: Awesome Drill
I've only had Makita cordless drills before buying this Panasonic. I based my buy decision strictly off of Amazon users reviews. This drill is well balanced and conveniently stands upright on its battery. The bits are extremely easy and fast to change by holding the chuck firmly and running the drill. (Probably not the method recommended by Panasonic.) The chuck holds the bits tight (they don't slip). Battery life is very long plus it comes with a second batttery so you can always have one in the charger. Battery recharge time seems very short. Battery charger tells you the status so you know if your battery is charging, charged, or bad. This drill has just the right amount of torque for my taste. I have used it for hole saw cutting and with spade bits which can be dangerous with a drill with more torque (the hole saw or spade bit gets stuck when it breaks thru and rotation is transferred to the drill itself). And the price was right at $99.

An 18-stage clutch, a dependable electric brake, and a two-speed gearbox help ensure that this tool is working for you in the most effective way possible. The low-speed setting of 50 to 400 rpm is ideal for jobs requiring high torque, such as drilling with large bits and driving screws in a controlled manner, while a high speed of 180 to 1300 rpm is great for general drilling tasks.
Convenient, Ergonomic Design for Comfort and Precision
This well-balance drill driver is ideal for both right- and left-handed users. A unique, soft finger rest and rubber surfaces on the handle and rear barrel help you maintain a sure grip and combat fatigue during prolonged use. This lets you produce more precise finished products without sacrificing comfort.
The forward/reverse switch is conveniently located on the body of the drill, easily within reach of your trigger hand. Combined with a heavy-duty keyless chuck, which means you'll never worry about a lost chuck key bringing work to a standstill again, this makes changing bits substantially easier. The tool measures a compact 8-3/16 inches in length and weighs less than four pounds.
Reliable, Quick-Charge Battery Power
Effective battery power means no more tangled extension cords that can limit your movement or cause a safety hazard. That's why this Panasonic drill driver is powered by a 2.0Ah Ni-Cad battery pack that can be fully charged in just 30 minutes using the included universal charger. With this quick-charging system and a spare battery included in the kit, you'll never get stuck waiting around for your battery to recharge in the middle of a big project.
