EXCELLENT!EXCELLENT!EXCELLENT!EXCELLENT!EXCELLENT! I love this tool. so much torque you have to be careful. charge lasts and lasts. I use a lot of tools and this is an excellent one.
I purchased the BTD142HW to remove screws and bolts from ten sections of high school bleachers. The unit performed flawlessly and even suprisingly in that it removed half inch lag bolts from the hardwood floors. The light was also useful when working on the undersides of the seats in the darker areas.
Good power and battery life, but all these Chicom driver/drills have the same problem: the directional switch is too close to the trigger finger, constantly being unintentionally bumped to the center (off) or the opposite direction. The reversing switch should be nowhere near the trigger finger. Imagine the huge sweatshop where all these tools are assembled, brands distinguished only by the colors of the plastic housings. Makita might get ball bearings, Harbor Freight bronze sleeves. Ain’t globalization grand?
This product is great, It is the second one I have purchased in 4 years. I is very dependable, Lite to handle and great battery life with extreme power to drive screws over 3″ long.
This product is really value for money – we have used it for driving in drywall screws and many other projects and just love it!!!!
