Product Description
The new Micro Driver Drill from Hitachi is the first in a series of 10.8 volt Lithium Ion tools. The DB10DL is impressively lightweight and compact at less than 6" in length and weighing only 1.8 lbs. Fitting easily in any tool belt, it is the ideal drill for trades such as installation, electrical, HVAC or for mor eprecise applications like finish cabinetry. Its compact size is especially useful when working in tight spaces that are hard to reach with conventional drills. Hitachi's DB10DL Micro-Drill is free standing for convenience: simply set the tool down on its battery and it stands on its own. Its balanced handle (5 1/2" in circumference) ergonomically supports the hand for a comfortable and secure grip. This tool comes with two 1.5 Amp/Hr. Li-Ion batteries that deliver consistent power for the duration of the charge unlike traditional Ni-Cad batteries that fade as soon as the trigger is pulled. Li-Ion batteries have an overall life that is 3x longer than traditional Ni-Cad batteries.

Summary: A good little driver, but not necessarily a drill 2008-07-04
Comment: I bought this because I like the lithium battery technology which affords a lot of power, long battery life, and good value for a very compact unit. Do not purchase this, however, if you are expecting a normal cordless drill because this unit does not have a Jacobs type chuck for inserting drill bits. As long as you plan to use it with typical driver bits, you will like it. If you are planning on using it as a normal drill with normal drill bits, you won't!

Summary: Very pleased on the quality of this product. 2008-06-25
Comment: I purchased this item, after going to the "Orange" and "Blue" brick and mortar stores, looking to replace my aging Panasonic 9.6V impact driver. I looked at all the other Lithium-Ion based ones in the same voltage class, disliking the Bosch and Milwaukee due to grip size (width), the Skill for lack of an extra battery, the new 12V Ryobi (no clutch), and wasn't going to wait for the upcoming Makita. One other factor I looked at in buying a new drill/driver, was the other tools available/upcoming and a heavy sway for me was their new Saw based on the 10.8V system. It doesn't sound like much, but my job as a computer tech/network engineer, I only need a lighter duty reciprocating saw to cut holes in floor tiles and to cut down telco racks.
So far it has been quite useful in reconfiguring server cabinets, putting a car stereo in my Jeep, and for drilling 1/2" lag bolt holes in some stairs. It isn't a power house, but wasn't purchased to be one. I was actually surprised by the quality of the product and have to say that the 1/4" hex adapter has very little slop and what minor drilling I have used it with, was very little "walk" with the bit I used to for the stairs mentioned above. The length of run time with the Li-Ion packs has been a real bonus. Where removing and reinstalling the myriad amount of screws and bolt to install server gear, I used only 1 charged pack for almost the whole day. The LED ring is pretty useful as well. Working under the dash of my Jeep, I didn't have to balance a flashlight on my chest or worry about ripping a headlamp off my head. The hard case is really nice, yet I find that most situations, I drop the drill, with an attached battery, and a Picquic bit pack, into my notebook case and have a go-to tool available wherever I am working.
My only non-issue really is the 21 torque settings, superfluous in practice, since I have only used 4 (3, 9, 15, and drill) and can't foresee using anymore.
I hope their flashlight and impact driver become available soon (am about to pull the trigger on the saw) and I will have my "whole" set.

Summary: Small, Light, Handy 2008-04-30
Comment: To good to pass up at $99 with drill bit kit. I haven't used this yet, but bought to match my Hitachi 18v Lithion impact wrench I use on my cars.
Expect to use this as my only drill around the house for projects. Replaces some Coleman 18v Drills I bought at Pep-Boys, which were too bulky/heavy. This unit is much nicer and easier to operate due to small size and light weight.
Comparable to the Bosch PS20, but can stand up on battery which is handy.
It's small and light, the LED is right by the bit attachment and lights up well. Unit and movement feel very solid and much better quality than my $30 drill this replaced. Happy with purchase at initial "play time"; will update one I use this for real.
