How are the Hilti Cordless Drills when stacked up against the competition? Here is a short but revealing review to help you find out:
Models
6 1 2 Circular Saw
They offer the 9.6, the 12, the 14.4, and the 18v models. Here is a short review of each to help you choose the right one-if any:
18v
This is BY FAR their most popular model... while it's not as well known as many others that means it cheaper.
It sells for 0-cheaper than a Makita or other top of the line models. This one is known for its' power to size ratio-which is among the best in its' class.
Also its' ease of use and good balance give it high marks as well. the one main negative is that often the batteries are usually sold separately at most locations, which is a minor inconvenience.
15v
This one is their next size down, but still adequate to handle most jobs. The one negative with this Hilti Cordless Drill is that changing the battery is a bit hard... as the tabs are too tiny to be used from underneath.
You have to come at it from the back if you want to get the batteries out. A SMALL inconvenience, but still below the standards of the upscale models.
But on the whole the power of this one and performance are very good.
12v
This is their "homeowners" version. But don't be fooled-it still goes up to 1300rpms which is pretty respectable when compared with other 12vs.
This certainly isn't going to be used at major construction sites so the power is adequate for any home project. It's good for drilling into wood and metal.
9.6v
This is the smallest they offer, and is only good for the really small time projects. But this one is still capable of achieving 1250 RPMs, which is almost as high as the 12v, and the power is better than you'd expect for the smaller engine size. Still, your best bet is to go with the 12v in most instances.
The VERDICT
Hilti cordless drills are solid machines-they aren't as good as Makita or Milwaukee, but for most people they are adequate.
