Torque, Like you won't believe
By Rick Redfern
I have been most impressed with the DeWalt line of driver/drills since I first purchased one over 13 years ago. Amazed then and even more amazed with 930 Heavy Duty model. It has three main speed choices. That equates to torque. In the number 3 setting and setting to screw, and not set the clutch, this cannot be stopped by mortal men. Like all other guys, I will set the clutch to see just how powerful and what sort of muscle power it takes to stop the drill. Okay, I was able to stop at the highest setting. I felt that power and was reminded of Tim Allen's character "Tim -'the tool man' Taylor" of Tool Time fame. This IS the driver/drill that both Tim and Al would approve of. I usually use square drive screws when making sure that items stay together and this driver/drill fills the bill. A neighbor, a power lifter who is very strong, could not stop this beauty, even with his lifting gloves on when put into drill mode. As far as long term capabilities, I can only comment on my original DeWalt driver drill. It's still going strong with the 14.4 volt batteries and I don't feel the need to go to 18 volt or even higher. I have a large inventory of 14.4 tools from DeWalt and don't see a need to go to the larger voltage models. I have friends in the construction trades who agree with me on this.

Chuck is basically defective
By A. Fabbri
I bought one of these over a year ago. The chuck recently failed. It will no longer lock, no matter how much I fiddle with it. I thought, at this price range, I'd finally be buying a drill that would last.The chuck is pretty bad, even when it works. Good luck getting it more than a little tight.Other than the chuck, it is a pretty solid drill.

best drill ever
By H. D. Thorp
This is the strongest cordless I have used. I work construction. This drill is powerful, dependable, and takes a lot of abuse on a job. I now have two of this model. Only thing I can say bad is it is a little heaver than most, but worth the weight.
