Thanks for your feedback

First of all this is not a drill driver! But for around the house and electrical wiring (my application), it's quick and easy to use. The lED light could have been better positioned as a shadow is cast in the work area. The balance, grip, speed, and clutch are pretty nice. I bought two reconditioned units for $47 each. Milwaukee is slated to come out with a higher voltage unit soon but for me this was a good buy and I'm happy.
br /As a side note, the driver does not have provisions for storing bits so I use a strong magnet to hold my bits together and keep them in my tool bag/pocket.
