Overview

The AVID ACD138 is a battery powered drill running on AVID's 20-volt system, drawing 3.5 amps at a top speed of 1,400 RPM. AVID Power is a budget-focused power tool brand, and this spec set fits a general-purpose cordless drill driver.

No weight or dimension figures are listed, so sizing this against other compact drills is not possible from the spec sheet alone, but the voltage and RPM place it in standard drill driver territory rather than a specialty or hammer drill.
