I have used the Milwaukee version, and I'll detail my opinion about it...
- Air Guitar favorite on the site.
- A good production tool for lots of holes fast.
- No hopping up and down ladders for drill 8' - 10'cielings.
- No stooping drilling low or bottom plates.
- A good balance of torque and speed.
- Lasts a long time, but repairable (*I'll explain.)
A guy I worked for had one, and I made literaly tens of thousands of holes with it while with him. As it was used for many years before me, I think it may have gone through hundreds of thousands of holes, until one day it broke. (Other than several sets of brushes, and one guy who cooked a motor after 8 hours solid of 2 1/2" holes in wet framing with a dull bit.) There is a hex shaft down the middle, and it stripped after years of heavey use. To fix it, cut an inch or so off the shaft, and tube. Back in buisiness... On the same note you could cut to a length you choose. But this thing is made for reach. You'll love it.
