Cordless drill technology has come so far that you really can't go wrong no matter what major tool band you buy, and we thought the industry would be hard-pressed to produce yet another innovation. Leave it to DeWalt to do just that. The 930 has all the features of any professional-quality drill/driver, with one simply cool addition: DeWalt calls it the axial locking chuck, and it's what sets this drill apart from all the other colors of the same caliber. There's an automatic spindle lock, allowing you to change bits with just one hand, and here's the icing on that cake: The half-inch chuck actually ratchets and locks, keeping a grip on the bit and preventing you from what could be a costly drop. We love it. We're also duly impressed with the car given to ergonomics on this model. The balance point is dead center, taking the strain off your hardworking wrist and arm. It's surprisingly light for a cordless, weighing in at just over 5 pounds, and combined with the ergonomic design, it's exceedingly easy on the body, even when driving drywall screws into a new ceiling. And just as you'd expect, there's a wide range of clutch positions (22 in all) to match the torque specifically to the job, and three gear speeds - 0-450, 0-1,450 and 0-1,800 rpm - will handle whatever job is in front of you. The XRP extended-runtime batteries (two are in this kit; bravo, Dewalt!) recharge fully within an hour with the included charger, and the kit box totes it all in rugged style. As we said, you really can't go wrong with just about any drill in the class, but the ratcheting/locking chuck really puts this one out in front.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

 Not so bad September 10, 2008

I tried hard to find something negative to say about this drill kit. But I could not. I especially like the positive grip of the chuck--an improvement over the old 14.4 Dewalt drill I had.
Torque, Like you won't believe October 28, 2007

I have been most impressed with the DeWalt line of driver/drills since I first purchased one over 13 years ago. Amazed then and even more amazed with 930 Heavy Duty model. It has three main speed choices. That equates to torque. In the number 3 setting and setting to screw, and not set the clutch, this cannot be stopped by mortal men. Like all other guys, I will set the clutch to see just how powerful and what sort of muscle power it takes to stop the drill. Okay, I was able to stop at the highest setting. I felt that power and was reminded of Tim Allen's character "Tim -'the tool man' Taylor" of Tool Time fame. This IS the driver/drill that both Tim and Al would approve of. I usually use square drive screws when making sure that items stay together and this driver/drill fills the bill. A neighbor, a power lifter who is very strong, could not stop this beauty, even with his lifting gloves on when put into drill mode. As far as long term capabilities, I can only comment on my original DeWalt driver drill. It's still going strong with the 14.4 volt batteries and I don't feel the need to go to 18 volt or even higher. I have a large inventory of 14.4 tools from DeWalt and don't see a need to go to the larger voltage models. I have friends in the construction trades who agree with me on this.
