I have bought 4 black and decker 18 volt drills, 1 radio, 1 saw, 1 circular saw, and 1 flashlight and a total of 10 nicad batteries in the past 6 years. I bought two of these FSX18HD drills without batteries. This drill is clearly the most powerful drill in this product line and is a must if you want to continue using the NICAD batteries you have already. I refreshed all of my batteries very effectively using two 12 volt auto batteries and following instructions I found on the web. These drills will make the best use of these refreshed batteries so I don't need to spend 200 - 400 dollars on the new products now available. The only downside I see is the weight, but with the weight you get a lot of power.Bryan from Missouri

As the previous reviewer stated, Black and Decker tools are usually said to be low quality. As an employee at a hardware store, I get to test out all kinds of tools. This FSX18HD drill is a high quality tool that is comparable to other high-end 18v tools. I own many of the 18v series by B&D.As long as the buyer understand that this is a cordless tool and cannot run forever, and that one should take care of their tools and not force them, then this is a great buy at a great value! If you have many holes to drill, plan to have a couple charged batteries on hand. Other than that, if electricity is not available, or if the job is small, this would be a great addition to your collection.One word of advice, if you have dozens of holes to drill, or have to drill several of them very deep, invest in a corded tool. A Porter-Cable works just fine as does Dewalt and Milwaukee. Cordless and corded tools just don't compare in terms of their output.

I had an 18v Firestorm drill from a combo kit. I tried using it to drill into solid concrete walls in a condo. After about 15 minutes of hard work I was only in about a half inch. I then purchased this hammer drill which used the same batteries. Bingo. Took about one minute to drill over one inch with the very same drill bit. Don't know if I'll ever purchase a regular drill again since there is always a need to drill into concrete or concrete block.
