    1. The Battery charging – Since batteries get easily consumed so you have to make sure that batteries have a good charger
    2. The Voltage of the cordless drills and the best are the ones which are 12.6 or 15 volt as these are lightweight and less tiring.
    3. Look for the torque as that determines the speed and the voltage
    4. Make sure that there is pressure sensitive trigger so that it can eb release as and when you are about to reach the end of the hole you are drilling.

The Best brands of cordless drills

    As I explained earlier the best brands are those which use the good lithium ion batteries and also are relatively light. The new 10.5 volt cordless drill from Bosch is the lightest and very good performance.
