DeWalt DCD970KL 18-Volt XRP Hammerdrill Review
More muscle and extra features are what help define the new DEWALT flagship DCD970 18-Volt 1/2-Inch XRP Lithium-Ion Hammerdrill. This drill comes with the long lasting, extra long run time XRP Nano Phosphate Lithium-Ion batteries that help facilitate the 450 unit watts of power that is on tap! A few of the things that we like is that there is lot of metal on this new drill and the new three speed transmission. The drill/screw/hammer functions have been moved to their own selector ring separate from the clutch ring, which facilitates a quicker and easier selection depending on your application.
