Haven't had it long enough to comment on battery life. The case is quite large, but provides plenty of capacity for bits and drivers. Plus, many experiences and a couple of returns with Amazon - all easy transactions. This drill/driver is fantastic. A great value.Amazon price and free shipping are the deal.
It has torque and power to spare, long battery life, easy and quick recharging, and great balance/feel for an 18V. It drives 3 1/2" deck screws into treated lumber with ease. Also, has a light touch to the trigger for working with smaller bolts. The perfect balance makes it seem much lighter than it is, and user fatigue isn't an issue.
I replaced an older Porter Cable 12v NiCd drill with this Makita. Not a Home Depot trinket; this is a real tool. Night and day difference. The torque on this unit is outrageous, it's light and it's made in the USA.
Awesome replacement for my old cordless drill. Highly recommend it to others. Lots of torque and long battery life.
I always buy Makita for quality. Great value, great drill. This drill is no exception. For a little over the cost of a couple of batteries, you get the whole kit.
This drill is actually a little heavier than I like but the price was right. I have bought quite a few items from Amazon and have had very good experiences every time. I prefer the weight of the 14.4 volt units but this drill/driver works great.
