DEWALT 60V MAX* Cordless Drill for Concrete Mixing, E-Clutch System, Tool Only (DCD130B)

Love this drill

Es un aparato muy bueno

Love this thing for what I am using it for. I got the bug to start planting plants, however I live in central texas and the ground here is super compacted and heavy clay and rocks. Trying to dig holes with a shovel, while possible, by the time your on your 3rd or 4th hole, you are done for the day. I wanted to plant a hedge line, but no way was I going to dig it with a shovel. Then started my journey looking at augers. Some super cheap around the 200 dollar mark up to pretty expensive, but the thing I kept reading it how easy it is for augers to twist your wrists as soon as you hit a rock. I then started looking at auger bits and drills. I figured I would spend a little more than I wanted (as 60v batteries aint cheap), however then I would have a powerful drill and an auger. There I found a lot of recommendations but kept hearing the DCD130 was the best. I scoured online, asked AI, all the above and finally decided on DCD130 after people saying "yeah that drill is great, but thats only because you haven't tried the DCD130 Once I got the drill and auger bit, I charged it up and went outside to start drilling holes. I bought a 7" auger bit and I have to say I was extremely impressed. I was able to dig holes with relative ease. I hit a lot of rocks but the drills safety mechanism kicked in and just stopped. Never once was I afraid of crackin' my bones. I ended up digging 32 holes with this on a 9Ah battery and dont even thing I used 1 bar. I cant remember how long it took, maybe an hour or so but WOW this thing rocks. If you looking for a drill that you can use with Augers - This is the one! Plus then you will have a hefty drill. I have also been looking for whatever other 60v tools is out there that I can buy. 60v is POWERFUL! Highly recommend!

Great

This machine makes drilling for pre wires a joy. Its additional power, weight and size and the long side handle gives more control when handling longer larger auger bits. The DCD996 (RIP) has/had enough power for those also, but I found it was harder to control due to its shorter scale and less rigid clamshell. The mixer/drill allows me to distance myself further away from the work piece, which means I have better balance; reaching into tighter spots with longer augers. I also picked up a DCD796 which is a surprisingly good drill. Fits the DCD996 side handle and goes where the mixer/drill can't. The DCD996 is a great all rounder if I could only choose one drill. The DCD130 is just in another class, for the price, it wasn't much more than my Hitachi corded drill, but a massive improvement in safety and convenience. Time will tell if it last as long. My drill may have been a returned item as the chuck holes were dented, probably from the chuck key. The mixer drill seems a bit slower in reverse than in forward, though I haven't notice a lag in power. If it helps, I'm not a big person, around 145lbs 5ft8" and found this drill to be quite comfortable to use with a 9.0ah battery.

Nice drill , lots of power, excellent for mixing grout….
