Cordless Hammer Drill Manufacturers

Now here is a nifty tool every homeowner or contractor must have. Cordless drills have been around for years. However, why not buy a cordless drill that has the capability, with a flip of a switch, to become a hammer drill? This allows you to drill concrete, brick, or concrete block with the same ease you drill wood! The outward appearance, function, style, etc. of these cordless drills looks the same as the drills that cannot hammer. Often the price is just a little more for the hammer feature.

Pay attention to overall tool weight and the volts of the drill. The higher the voltage, generally, the more power the drill will produce in harsh situations. Buy smart - don't buy a drill that is overkill. Buy a drill that will do the things you need to do, not the things you dream to do.... If you buy a drill that is too big or powerful, you will just wear out your wrist and arm. Some drills come with handy battery packs that attach to your belt. This can take a load off your arm!

I have seen an ad for a cordless hammer that you can use in hard to reach/weird angle places. But can't seem to find it and I haven't seen the ad for awhile. Any idea who makes it?
