A: I’ve had good luck with this drill holding a charge. Having said that, I’ve been burned by other brands batteries. One hard lesson with batteries is they fail! I wish there was a good reason but mass produced and inferior materials. This is why I always by spares!

Answer This Question
A:Â There is a hole on the back of the drill body for the adaptor to plug in.
by|May 5, 2023
A:Â There is a small hole on the back of the drill's handle just above the battery. Your plug fits nicely into that hole and then plug the other end into your wall outlet. Hope this helps.
by|May 5, 2023
A:Â The battery never leaves the drill. There is a port at the back of the base of the handle. The charger plugs into this port.

Can't hold a charge
We bought this drill for small projects since we lived in an apartment and didn't need much done. But we make sure it's charged use it for a few minutes and the next day it's dead. I'm not sure why but it just can't hold a charge. Definitely spend the extra money and get a better more powerful drill. If you really only need it for small things like hanging pictures or something like that, this would totally work.

The product is very easy to handle overall. The grip is secure and it's very easy to change the drill or screw bits. I've used it several times and haven't had to charge it yet, so the battery life is very efficient. This was definitely one of the best purchases I have made in tools since I can use it for so many things.

Good bargain for what I will use it for. Light duty work mostly. I have only used it for a couple of weeks so I don't have a lot of experience to say whether it will handle all the jobs I want or that it good fit (size, weight, etc.). I did note that the display model in the store had pictures on the adjustment device that showed what setting to use for the particular application. That appeared to be a handy feature for someone like me who is not a professional. The actual drill that I bought, did not have this feature. This isn't a deal breaker but, the sample model displayed should reflect the actual product purchased.

Great replacement from old one!
We had a very old one of the same make and model. When we finally lost the charger, we decided to go the most affordable route and get a new one of the same kind. This one is far better than the old one, perfect for moderate around the house use, smaller in the hand and less clunky that the older one... and as a bonus, we can use the same battery from the old, and charge it too, so now we have 2!

Needed a second drill in a pinch. Definitely a keeper
So I had a major project to get done and had my brother help me out. I needed a second drill and since I only needed it for the one job I decided to go with this cheaper model. It definitely held in there with battery life and contended in drive power with my 18-volt drill. I think there were a couple knots that my brother could just not get through without the extra volts, but all in all definitely a great extra drill and great around the house tool.

Great options
I previously had another brand, but it was stolen. This product appeared cheaper with comparable quality
