Compact Tough Slim Pack

Fast Speeds, High Torque, and Durable Construction

The DDS180-02 is optimized to worke at two speeds--one for high-torque applications (0-500 RPM) and one for high-speed applications (1,700 RPM)--and it provides a maximum of 600 inch-pounds of torque. The 4-pole open-frame motor and newly developed gearbox provide exceptional power for such a compact drill/driver. The 18+1 clutch settings included in this Compact Tough model and a variable-speed trigger help you match the best speed to the job, so you can achieve precise results. It can drive 500 screws per charge using the BAT619G 3.0 Ah HC battery (not included).

Balanced Design and Easy Bit Changes

This drill/driver's Durashield housing is constructed with ABS/nylon composite, which makes the housing flexible on impact. Unlike competitive tools, which use a conventional plastic housing, Durashield will not crack and can easily withstand 10-foot drops.

The ergonomically designed handle and soft-grip wrapped housing offer a comfortable fit for extended working time. The DDS180-02 comes complete with a single-sleeve 1/2-inch auto-lock chuck for one-handed bit changes, as well as increased drill-bit capacity for versatility. And for even greater convenience, LEDs provide illumination when you are working in dark or enclosed areas.

Flexible Power System

Like all tools in Bosch's 18-volt line, this drill/driver can be used with either a 1.3 Ah Slim Pack battery (model BAT609), a 2.6-Ah Fat Pack battery (model BAT618), or a 3.0 Ah Fat Pack HC batter (model BAT619G). If you're looking for a lightweight option, the Slim Pack is the perfect choice. If longer runtime is what you need, the Fat Pack will do the job.

ProVantage Guarantee

The DDS180-02 comes with the ProVantage three-year protection plan, which guarantees two years of battery protection and one year of tool protection. Under this plan, you can receive two years of free battery replacements, tool replacement for one year, and a free tool repair package for the second and third years.

What's in the Box

One Bosch DDS180-02 Compact Tough drill/driver kit with two 18-volt lithium-ion 1.3 Ah Slim Pack batteries, one 30-minute charger, one carrying case, bits, and operating instructions.

18-Volt Litheon Batteries for Maximum Runtime and Manageability
The 36618-02 utilizes state-of-art lithium-ion battery technology and Bosch's proprietary ECP (Electronic Cell Protection) system to provide maximum cycle life, minimum self-discharge, and no memory-effect. Best of all, Litheon batteries will fully charge in 30 minutes and will be at 85% capacity in just 15 minutes.



Handle grip with finger support provides maximum control. View larger.
Up to one pound lighter than comparable 18-volt NiCad drills/drivers, the 36618-02 won't weigh you down. It's ideal for a wide range of drilling and fastening jobs, from hanging curtains to building a deck; from making automotive repairs to installing cabinetry.

Bosch is the only power tool manufacturer that provides this option.

Fast Speeds, High Torque, and Durable Construction for Reliable Results
The 36618-02 works at speeds up to 1,600 RPM and provides 500 in./lbs. of torque. Durashield housing, unibody construction, and a steel-reinforced collar help you withstand real-world conditions, like temperature extremes, rain, dirt, debris, and drops.

The 36618-02's Durashield Housing is constructed with ABS/Nylon composite, which makes the housing flexible and impenetrable. Unlike competitive tools, which use a conventional plastic housing, Durashield will not crack and can easily withstand 10-foot drops.

This tool also features unique unibody construction with three steel straps that keep the motor, gears, and clutch together. This ensures that the gears never separate from the motor, and it keeps the drill functioning even after drops.

Additionally, the 36618-02 boasts an exclusive steel-reinforced collar that protects the nose of the drill. It provides extra reinforcement in the event of drops on the chuck and prevents the chuck from bending or breaking off.

Easy Bit Changes and Balanced Design for Utmost Control
The 36618-02 comes complete with a single-sleeve 1/2-inch chuck for one-handed bit changes, as well as increased drill-bit capacity for versatility. And for maximum control, comfort, and balance, the tool boasts a newly designed handle-grip with finger support.

Smart Features for Easy Use
20 clutch settings and a variable-speed trigger help you match the best speed to the job, so you can achieve precise results.

Makita BHP452 Review - A Comprehensive Look at the Makita BHP452 Cordless Drill

The Makita BHP452 is a really great drill because not only is it a driver-drill, it's also a hammer-drill as well. If you're the person that often uses both types of drills, then you might want to kill two birds with one stone and just purchase the Makita BHP452HW. This particular Makita is great for drilling into masonry and concrete, fastening anchors, woodworking, carpentry, and anything else that you need a durable, powerful drill for.

Drill Cordless

Coming equipped with a 4-pole motor and 2 separate speed settings, the Makita BHP452 cordless drill delivers sufficient power when needed. Operating at 450 inch pounds of max torque, there's not much that this drill can't handle. You can then tone it down to the lighter speed setting when you're working on an easier project that doesn't need as much torque and power.

Drill Cordless

Due to the Makita BHP452 weighing only 3.6 pounds and coming in at a length of 8-3/4 inches, this drill is also great for squeezing into tighter areas that a lot of other drills can't reach. If you find yourself working in small spaces often, this Makita is perfect for you.

Battery life and charge time is critical when choosing a cordless drill and the Makita BHP452HW is superior in this area. The 18-V Li-Ion batteries that it comes with last for a long time, and even when they run out of juice, they recharge in about 15 minutes. I don't know of many other brands of cordless drills that charge that quickly. Another benefit is you get two batteries instead of just one so you can always have the extra one ready.

Several other features I really enjoy about this Makita cordless drill are the Ergonomic grip design and the L.E.D light. The unique grip design makes sure that your hand stays comfortable while you're drilling into tough material, and the L.E.D light is perfect for working in dark spaces.

So if you're in the market for a new drill and you need either a hammer or driver-drill, or both, I think you will really enjoy the Makita BHP452HW.

Should You Invest in a Set of Cordless Grass Shears?

People who have gorgeous-looking lawns spend a lot of time working to make them that way. They also have a lot of different tools to help them do the different tasks. They have mowers, clippers, pruning shears, loppers, and many other great tools. One tool that they may have which is very effective in clipping those hard-to-reach areas and giving your lawn a finished look are cordless grass shears.

Drill Cordless

How Cordless Shears Function

Drill Cordless

Cordless grass shears are perfect for those spots where your lawnmower just can't do the job, such as around the edges of raised flowerbeds or along walkways and patios. If you have a space that's too small for your mower, clip it with your grass shears. You can keep your entire yard looking neat and tidy by using these nifty little clippers that are so much easier on the hands than the manual kind.

What to Look For in Cordless Grass Shears

It's hard to know where to start looking for an item you don't buy every day, like cordless shears. The key to any good cordless product is the battery. You want a shears that runs the maximum amount of time between battery charges, because you want to be able to complete the entire job on one charge. You also need to know a little bit about the different types of batteries, because some work better and longer than others.

Choosing a nickel cadmium battery will give you a battery that lasts longer than other types do and are the safest on the market. And if you select a cordless grass shears that operates on a higher voltage battery, it will run longer on a single charge. Your continuous cutting time will increase as the voltage of battery increases. If you buy a grass shears that only takes a 3.6 volt batter, for instance, they may run about 30 minutes on a charge. By buying a unit that runs off of a 4.8 volt battery, the running time will increase another 15 minutes.

Look over the safety features of each model of cordless grass shears. Is there a safety switch, and is it easy to operate? How does the hand grip feel? Is it designed to lessen the stress placed on your hand as much as possible? You only want a grass shears which has stainless steel blades which will last much longer and hold up under heavy use. Make sure the unit comes with a battery charger, because it's no good without one. If it doesn't, you'll have to purchase one separately. You also may want an extendable handles for ease of use.

Cordless grass shears are ideal for trimming those hard-to-reach areas around your yard. You can use them for many different applications to keep your yard looking neat. You can even use them around bushes and shrubs without damaging your plants. Once you have a pair you'll wonder what you ever did without them!

Best Buying Tips For Cordless Drills

Cordless drill has become one of the most important and must have equipments of any construction site or home. These equipments gained popularity with some innovative advances in it. These are available in several sizes and exhibit a lot of features.

Drill Cordless

With the presence of several high standard brands, finding a most appropriate and a best drilling machine at the best price is a bit daunting task. There are several factors which should be considered while purchasing one for you.

Drill Cordless

The first and the foremost thing which should be taken care of is the battery which is the source of power. Nearly all of the cordless drills are available with the batteries that range from 9. 6 volts to 24 volts. If you are using a high voltage battery, you would get high power output. The powerful battery is able to transmit more torque for driving comparatively longer screws into hardwoods.

If you are using this equipment with powerful battery, it means that you would be using considerably heavier machine. The equipment with 24 volts battery is much heavier as compare to machine with 12 volts battery.

The Lithium-ion battery should be selected for long life battery.

Before selecting a machine, RPM is another factor that should be considered as it is the measure of speed of drill. For basic and simple operations, the drills are used at fixed speed but a range of drilling machines is available with variable speeds. Variable speed enables you to adjust your speed according to the material you are using. Slower speed drills are used for relatively softer material while high speed is used for tougher materials.

The size of the chuck is an important feature which decides what size of drill bit should be used. The most common type of chuck size is 3/8 and is capable of doing the simple and normal work of the home. Most of the professionals make use of larger chuck as these are capable to withstand the heavy duty and a bit tougher tasks.

Many of the drilling machines include a second battery for back up. An extra battery enables you to work even the battery of your machine gets discharged or gets low. As soon as one of the batteries is discharged, the user can switch to another battery that is charged. Having an extra battery is a worth when you are working on something and your battery runs out of the charge before your work is finished.

Price is one of the most important factors which should be considered while purchasing a machine. Most of the powerful drilling machines are expensive as compare to small or less powered machines. Hence the most suitable type drilling machine should be selected so that you should not unnecessarily invest into high capacity machine.

Another thing which should be considered is the comfort, if you don't find your machine comfortable they you will not enjoy working with it. Always go for one which makes you feel good when it is in your hands.

Finding information online on internet and going through the product reviews is the best way of learning about the product. One would be able to know about the advantages and disadvantages of using various kinds of cordless drills by finding the information online.

Here's How to Charge a Makita Cordless Drill

It's too easy!

Drill Cordless

If you have a Makita cordless drill, your life gets much easier. Especially due to the lithium-ion batteries they come with. Makita drills are becoming popular with each passing day.

Drill Cordless

That said, a Makita battery charger is an important aspect of maintaining a cordless drill.

The first thing you must remember while operating a cordless tool is to never use it when the battery level is low. Always keep the battery charged and fresh.

Always use the charger supplied with your Makita cordless drill. Using any other charger will only damage your drill battery.

Another question, which must be bugging you would be, 'how long do I charge the battery for?' Well, remember that you simply have to follow the indicators on your makita battery charger.

If it is red, lt's charged and if it's green, it's time to unplug it-Your ready to go!

Some of them have continuous light and flashing light indicators.

That said; remember the following tips while charging your cordless drill:

* Be sure that the Makita battery charger is plugged in and switched on.

* Fix the Makita battery into the charging station.

* Switch on the power supply and completely charge the battery.

* When it is first switched on check the battery charger indicator lights to ensure there are no errors. It should show either charging or already fully charged.

If you are charging the battery for the first time, charge it at least for 7-8 hours. If it has been previously charged, simply follow the charging indicators. A completely empty battery should be charged for around four to six hours. -Always go off the indicator lights though. Once charged, unplug the charging cord from the Makita cordless drill.

The device is now ready to be used.

Now, here are a few tips about maximizing the performance of your Makita battery.

A. You can prolong the battery life by completely charging and then fully discharging it, at least once a month. Exceptions to this rule are the Li-Ion batteries, which do not experience the memory effect.

B. Ensure that the contacts of your Makita cordless Drill Battery are as clean as possible as this would ensure a good charge.

C. Do not let the battery stay in a discharged state for long. Use the battery at least once a month.

D. If you don't plan on using your tool for a month or so, take out the battery and store it in a cool and dry place. Also when not in use click the rotation direction switch by the trigger to neutral. This aids in battery storage.

So, do you still feel hassled about charging your cordless Makita cordless drill? We think not.

The 4-pole open-frame motor and newly developed gearbox provide exceptional power for such a compact drill/driver. The 18+1 clutch settings included in this Compact Tough model and a variable-speed trigger help you match the best speed to the job, so you can achieve precise results. It can drive 500 screws per charge using the BAT619G 3.0 Ah HC battery (not included).

Balanced Design and Easy Bit Changes

This drill/driver's Durashield housing is constructed with ABS/nylon composite, which makes the housing flexible on impact. Unlike competitive tools, which use a conventional plastic housing, Durashield will not crack and can easily withstand 10-foot drops.

The ergonomically designed handle and soft-grip wrapped housing offer a comfortable fit for extended working time. The DDS180-02 comes complete with a single-sleeve 1/2-inch auto-lock chuck for one-handed bit changes, as well as increased drill-bit capacity for versatility. And for even greater convenience, LEDs provide illumination when you are working in dark or enclosed areas.

Flexible Power System

Like all tools in Bosch's 18-volt line, this drill/driver can be used with either a 1.3 Ah Slim Pack battery (model BAT609), a 2.6-Ah Fat Pack battery (model BAT618), or a 3.0 Ah Fat Pack HC batter (model BAT619G). If you're looking for a lightweight option, the Slim Pack is the perfect choice. If longer runtime is what you need, the Fat Pack will do the job.

ProVantage Guarantee

The DDS180-02 comes with the ProVantage three-year protection plan, which guarantees two years of battery protection and one year of tool protection. Under this plan, you can receive two years of free battery replacements, tool replacement for one year, and a free tool repair package for the second and third years.
