This DeWalt Drill and Driver Set Is on Sale for $138 During the Prime Day Sale in October.
At Lifehacker, we absolutely adore household power tools: check out these picks of the best cordless power tools on Amazon and Home Depot , which are on sale during the October Prime Day sale, and you’ll see what I mean. I’ve been browsing tool deals all day, and the one I’m definitely buying is the Dewalt 20V MAX cordless drill driver .
I’m tired of my corded drill. It seemed logical when I bought it 15 years ago, but batteries have become much more compact and powerful, so you don’t lose the weight of a corded drill just because you use batteries. Both the drill and impact driver in this Dewalt kit run on 20V lithium-ion batteries, which weigh about 340 grams and are roughly the size of a deck of playing cards. The result is small, maneuverable tools (the drill weighs 1.6 kg, and the impact driver 1.1 kg) that can fix a bookcase without making you worry about where the outlet is.
Other improvements over my 15-year-old drill include LED work light—a simple upgrade that makes a big difference—and the ability to install drill bits with one hand. The price is also very attractive: $138.99, 42% off the suggested retail price.
