Title: Caveats to this Drill
Product review: Don't get me wrong - the drill is GREAT. The problem is the battery - if you don't use them on a regular basis, they lose their charge - forever. Milwaukee has a manual on how to "jump start" dead batteries, but it's a half-baked solution. The truth is, NiCad batteries from Milawaukee are seriously flawed for the occasional user. Probably great for a tradesman.I have a similar Porter Cable drill - the drill itself is junk compared to the Milwaukee. But, the batteries have lasted forever. Not sure what the difference is, but buyer beware. I'd suggest going to the Lithium Ion models.
