Our Best Cordless Drill 36V



We have put together our list of the best 36V cordless drills, we have decided on these through personal experience, the opinions of other guys on site and through the sell through rates at ebay.

We think the sales of these 36V battery drills is a good base upon which to build our list as most guys will buy a battery drill based on what they have heard about them, so if they hear good things they buy, if they hear bad things they steer clear.

What makes a good 36V cordless drill depends on what you want from it and the kind of work that you will be doing. Obviously a good battery run time, easy drill bit change, the weight and feel of the drill all come into play.

We have a natural preference for Li-Ion batteries as these do not retain a memory and can be charged when it is convenient, no longer having to wrap a bit of tape around the trigger to drain the battery fully! When it is lunch time just slap it on the charger.

Weight and balance is important if you are doing a lot of drilling as these two factors will determine how quickly your arm gets tired, you have enough to think about without arm ache!

Things we have looked at include safety aspects such as electronic braking and safety clutches, we drill a lot of joists overhead and when the bit snags you do not want it wrenching your arm painfully. Rotary stop is a valuable asset for when you want to put a quick chase in for a cable or pipe and impact stop is required for drilling steel or wood.

These are our best 36v cordless drills, if you have a different opinion let us know.
