Upgrade from my old drill

Bought this one after I had problems finding battery replacements for my old Bosch 14.4v drill (still working after 20 years). This 18v drill really blows the old one away. I have put it through its paces for a few weeks now and all indications are it will be a solid tool. I like the compactness and power. I added a battery charger and two small LiOn batteries which last quite a while on a single charge. Highly recommended.

Extremely well executed drill/driver

This drill is super compact and the electronic clutch and antikickback are both outstanding features. The fit and finish of the components are well executed. The variable speed trigger is easy to control drilling speed during use. This drill has outstanding torque, decent speed and excellent controls. This is by far the best drill driver I have owned and I now own a few of them. My favorite feature aside from the tiny size and light weight is the electronic clutch. My next favorite feature is the anti-kickback feature. It keeps the drill from injuring your hand or wrist if it binds while using it. The electronic clutch provides repeatable fastener setting results regardless of rpm and is very crisp. It works in tandem with a normal mechanical clutch and the power immediately cuts upon the first or second click of the mechanical clutch. In-use, I can barely hear the clutch slip that one or two clicks and the way the power suddenly stops is very sure and deliberate. This electronic clutch is far superior to the similar feature on other ec clutch drills I own. The anti kickback operates equally as sure and works really well and consistently. I have had a bone in my hand broken by a high torque drill which did not have this safety feature so I really appreciate this Bosch drill for having it. Both the antikickback and electronic clutch features are really well designed and executed but they only work in clockwise rotation or driving rotation direction. The excellence of the handle ergonomics are why this drill is my preference to even more compact 12v tools for all day use. The chuck spins true with no visible runout and doesn't loosen up on me during use. It is a Rhm chuck made with all metal components and the tapered cone is free spinning to prevent damage to a work piece if it comes into contact during use. The chuck on the most recent dds183 I've bought is a matte black rather than gloss black as earlier releases of this model have been. It is the same chuck, just a different sheen of black. The drill has a dual led light emitted from the top of the battery slide and it works great for spot lighting a workpiece. I do wish there were an option available with a quick change hex chuck but the chuck it comes with is brilliant for a 3 jaw keyless chuck.

Powerful and reliable

This is one of the most powerful and reliable cordless drills that I have ever owned. Now when I hear someone say they want to buy a good cordless drill I tell them about my Bosch. You can"t go wrong with this drill.
