The cordless drill is heavier than its corded cousin as it has to carry its power source in its body. Cordless drills are generally less powerful, too, though recent advancements in technology have closed that gap quite a bit. Cordless drill batteries have to be recharged, and after 3 or 4 years must be replaced, even if they’ve rarely been used. So why buy a cordless drill in the 1st place?
For convenience, that’s why. The best cordless drills are ready to use in a few quick snaps and can go anywhere. No getting tangle in cords! They are particularly handy for those little jobs inside and outside the house, and are great for driving screws.

For most households use a light, relatively low-powered drill is best, say 14/15 v. Why low-powered? More power means more voltage, which means a bigger, and therefore heavier, battery. It doesn’t sound like much, but anything over 5 lbs. will get cumbersome fast for most people. As for heavy-duty jobs, well, that’s part of the trade-off.
DeWALT cordless drills, Black and Decker cordless drills, Makita cordless drills, Panasonic cordless drills, Craftsman cordless drills, Coleman cordless drills and Bosch cordless drills are just some of the more popular models and makes.
