The Hitachi model DS18DGL 18V Lithium Ion Driver Drill is powered by a lithium-ion slide-type battery that eliminates the vertical cell battery chamber and permits the drill’s handle to be ergonomically designed for comfort and control. The DS18DGL delivers 400 inch-pounds of torque with 22 torque settings, plus a drill mode for additional precision and control. It has a two-speed gear setting, with no-load speeds of 0-450 and 0-1,250 rpm. The DS18DGL uses a ½” keyless ratcheting chuck and has an LED light that points upward from the base of the tool to better illuminate the tip. It weighs 3.7 pounds and sells for approximately $129.
