Brushless drill with longer runtime

Your choice depends on the intended use and the power level you need. For professional tasks and heavy installations, look for brushless motor models with a voltage around 20 V and generous battery packs—such as kits offering 4 Ah or 2 x 2 Ah. Also consider the 13 mm chuck and variable speed with a double mechanical speed setting, so you can match performance to each task and avoid frequent stops.

A brushless motor provides better efficiency and greater durability compared to brushed motors. Modern tools in this range highlight this motor type to optimize usable life and endurance during repeated work. In this segment, you’ll often see models that deliver consistent performance even under heavy effort—especially beneficial for professionals who run continuous drilling and screwdriving sessions on large areas.

To estimate runtime, check the battery capacity and how many battery packs are included. Some kits include 2 batteries at 2.0 Ah, while others offer a 4 Ah battery. Some also include two 5.0 Ah batteries with a fast charger. A fast charger speeds up recharge cycles between sessions, and heavier sets with 2 batteries let you work longer without interruption under demanding loads.

These tools can handle a variety of materials thanks to speed settings ranging from low to fast, along with appropriate torque modes. Some models include a built-in hammer function that allows drilling into concrete, brick, wood, and metal. The 13 mm chuck and dual-speed system make precise drilling easier in wood and metal, while the Impact mode improves efficiency on harder materials.

For heavy-duty work or professional jobsites, choose a kit with high-capacity batteries—for example 5.0 Ah—and useful accessories such as a fast charger and a carrying case. Sets that include 2 x 5.0 Ah batteries plus a fast charger give you extended runtime and better time management. If you’ll move the tool often, select a more robust packaging/case for easier storage and transport.

Comfort and control are enhanced by an ergonomic soft-grip handle and, in some kits, an additional auxiliary handle for more stability. Built-in LED lighting helps you work in poorly lit areas, and a chuck-lock function allows quick bit changes. In addition, the 2 mechanical speed system and spindle lock improve accuracy and safety during operation.
