Why didn't you buy a milwaukee dewalt or makita?
i have a dewalt set and a milwaukee set, and i bought a ridgid set because it came with a free bluetooth wireless speaker that is supposed to be construction grade (not gonna lie the radio was nice).Thats the kind of drill a female divorcee buys when her husband leaves with his brushless 18v set, and she wants to hang up a picture of her cat.
B&D - throw away tier
Riyobi - low-tier
Ridgid/Porter Cable/Hitachi - mid tier
Dewalt, Bosch, Makita - mid-high tier
Milwaukee - overpriced tier
For the price, quality and warranty, its hard to beat Ridgid, imo. Having worked in several construction fields Ive used all the brands above and own a few pieces of several as well, there is little difference between the mid-high tier stuff and up and from what Ive heard even the new Riyobi stuff is pretty decent now...
Women can use drills too you sexist pig
No it doesn’t, you clearly don’t know WTF you are talking about, so you should save yourself the embarrassment of continued false statements.It means the motor is bigger. It is how most companies advertise and state the power of their drills.
TS is probably just going to hang some picture, but even for that Black & Decker is crap. TS should just get Makita. Or spend a little more and get Hilti.Haha, you show up on a real jobsite with black and decker like that that would be funny. Be sure to buy some safety goggles and ear muffs to go with that thing.

20V is a lot. I have an 18V and do a lot of work with it. 20V is for the contractors.
Lol voltage isn’t “marketing shit.” It does kind of drive amperage. Obviously you have much more efficient conponents downstream and not all batteries with a given voltage rating are equal, but lol at the thought that DC amps are like independent of the voltage.Voltage doesn’t mean shit , it’s about amperage to make power.
It’s marketing shit. I guarantee my old ass 18v dewalt is stronger. And the old ass 14v dewalt before that was too.
