The Panasonic EY6432NQKW Ni-MH 15.6-volt 2.8Ah cordless ½” drill and driver kit packs high power and control into a small package that’s easy to use for general construction, plumbing, electrical or finish carpentry work. At 4.5 lbs. including battery, and only 8-3/16” long x 9” tall x 2-9/32” wide, the tool produces up to 390 in. lbs. of power for demanding drilling jobs, yet its small size makes it a good tool for work in cramped quarters. It has a variable speed control and a reversible two-speed transmission that delivers 65-450 rpm on low speed and 200-1,450 rpm in high speed. The 18-stage clutch delivers 9 to 61 in. lbs. stepped up in 3.0 in. lbs. increments. Maximum torque is delivered in drill-only mode. The ergonomic design fits well in the user’s hand and helps maintain a neutral wrist position in overhead, horizontal or floor drilling/driving operations. The electric brake stops the bit from turning instantly when the trigger is released for optimal drilling and driving control. Using the Panasonic EY0110B charger, the battery reaches full charge in 45 minutes. The kit comes with two 15.6-volt 2.8Ah batteries.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Capable Great tool, long lasting
I have used this drill for years. It is hardy and well built. It is easy to repair and is well worth the cost. The only down side is, as has been noted elsewhere, it is hard to find, but, worth every second of effort.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Zmassive Just won't die
I have a predessor to this model and have been using it for 17 years. It is very balanced in my hand, takes an enormous amount of abuse and just keeps coming back for more. The chuck works great is smaller than most so it doesn't get in the way and closes down completely so in those rare cases I can chuck even the smallest of bits. When I first purchased this unit I tested it aginst many other models and found this drill to be the most powerfull and had the smallest footprint of all the competitors. This has been one of the best products I have ever owned. I was waiting for this unit to die for years so I could upgrade to a newer drill, but it just won't die.
