As we kick off November and get closer to the holiday season, here’s a practical gift for someone who always has a project going. The Metabo HPT 18V MultiVolt Brushless Drill/Driver Kit comes with two batteries and a charger, making it an easy way to get someone set up for everyday repairs and weekend projects.
Why It’s Our Pick This Week
At 6.1 inches long and 2.6 pounds without a battery, this drill is versatile, especially when you’re working inside a cabinet or between studs. The built-in LED lights up the work area, and the keyless metal chuck makes it easy to swap a drill bit for a driver bit.
The brushless drill delivers 620 in-lbs of max torque and up to 2,000 RPM at no load. Its Reactive Force Control can stop rotation if the tool senses an overload, helping limit kickback when a bit binds. You’ll have plenty of power to get most applications done.
Who Would Use It?
- New homeowners putting up shelves, replacing cabinet hardware or working through a repair list.
- DIYers assembling furniture, building shop storage or drilling into wood or metal with the right bit.
- Installers and maintenance techs who need a compact drill for tight spaces.
What’s in the Kit?
You get the drill, two 18V 2.0Ah batteries with fuel gauges, a charger, a #2 Phillips bit and a carrying bag. Keep one battery in the drill and the other charged for a quick swap.
