5.0 out of 5 stars Professional performance for amateur price, 11 April 2008

Mr. A. M. Patterson "Patto" (Guisborough, Cleveland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Dewalt DC740KA 12 Volt Professional Drill Driver, 2 NiCD Batteries 1.3 Ah and Carry Case (DIY & Tools)

I use one of these at work and the balance, speed/torque performance is superb and up to everything you'd expect from a professional 12v drill. We reckon DeWalt is the "Rolls Royce". This one is an ideal weight for work combining drilling and driving. Let's face it, if you are doing a lot of large diameter holes in masonry and no screwdriving you would get an 18v hammer version, however this sort would be too heavy for general stuff.
Beware though of overcharging the batteries. This shortens the life and they are not cheap. Switch off the charger when the light stops flashing but follow the instructions for the occasional "maintenance charge".

4.0 out of 5 stars small but mighty, 29 Oct 2008

Foxylock (Ireland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)

This review is from: Dewalt DC740KA 12 Volt Professional Drill Driver, 2 NiCD Batteries 1.3 Ah and Carry Case (DIY & Tools)

I keep this handy in the van for a range of uses.Not the most powerfull drill out there but at 12v it proves more than capable of dealing with the easier jobs.The two batteries are more than adequate and with charging taking about an hour downtime is significantly decreased.Overall a mighty little drill

5.0 out of 5 stars Good for the ameteur DIY enthusiast, 10 April 2009

Peter Horsley (Nottingham England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Dewalt DC740KA 12 Volt Professional Drill Driver, 2 NiCD Batteries 1.3 Ah and Carry Case (DIY & Tools)

I agree that this drill probably wouldn't stand heavy industrial use but it has already proved it's worth for me and is man enough for routine DIY tasks. I would be classed as a fairly heavy user in this category and am delighted with it's performance; an upgrade version with hammer facility would be a bonus but (a)My usage wouldn't justify that and (b)I alrady have an excelent Bosch for the heavy duty stuff; well satisfied with the build quality and extra battery; at the pice, a snip.
