Hitachi DV18DCL2

Like the Panasonic, this Hitachi drill comes from the professional end of the market, but it’s a step behind the more expensive EY7441

Like the Panasonic, this Hitachi drill comes from the professional end of the market, but it’s a step behind the more expensive EY7441. The DV18DCL2 is good to use, well balanced and features a quick charger, variable torque settings for screwdriving and a bit holder on the case, while the motor runs smoothly. But the chuck really needs two hands, there’s no work light and this didn’t have the stamina of our li-ion runner-up.
