AVID POWER ACD121 12V Cordless Drill Driver, 3/8-Inch Chuck, 25+1 Torque
Product description
The 12V cordless format keeps this drill set ready for household repairs and DIY projects around the home. Its 3/8-inch keyless chuck lets you change bits without a chuck key. With two speed settings and 25+1 torque positions, you can tailor the tool to the task at hand.
Everyday use
From assembling furniture to driving screws or drilling into wood and steel plate, the ACD121 is designed for light-duty household work. Select from low speed at 0–400 RPM or high speed at 0–1,400 RPM, then adjust the torque setting to suit the fastener or material. This gives you more control for jobs that call for a gentler touch, such as fitting hardware, as well as for routine drilling and screwdriving.
The built-in front LED helps illuminate a work area in a dim corner, it turns on when you press the speed trigger. A forward and reverse switch makes it easy to drive or remove screws. Buyers describe the drill as easy to handle and appreciate its light feel and compact size, while some note that the size may feel large in their hands. For a typical project, such as putting together a shelf, the supplied driver bits and extension bar help you get set up for screwdriving tasks.
Pros
The keyless chuck makes bit changes straightforward, and the variable-speed trigger gives you control as you start a hole or drive a screw. Twenty-five torque settings plus a drill setting offer more adjustment than a basic drill with a single torque option. The cordless 12V design also keeps the work area clear of a power cord while you move between tasks around the home.
