Overview

A homeowner with small repair jobs gets a cordless drill and impact combo in this PORTER-CABLE, with two speed settings and a lightweight body. The kit is built around a lithium ion pack.

A kit format puts a drill and an impact driver under one listing, and the light body is easy to manage on repetitive work. The limitation is the small battery, which restricts run time, and a charger that the listing never names.

Who it's for

Occasional projects around a house suit a small battery and a light frame. Tradespeople driving long screws all day, or drilling larger holes in metal, will want more capacity than these figures show.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Drill and impact combo kit
  • Two speed settings
  • Wood and metal drilling capacity listed
  • Limited manufacturer warranty
Cons
  • Two conflicting torque figures
  • Charger not named in the listing
  • Small battery capacity limits run time

Performance notes

Run time depends on the small battery, and heavy loads drain it faster. The two speed settings let you choose control for driving screws or faster rotation for drilling. The torque rating decides how large a fastener or bit the tool can turn before stalling.
