- 3/8-inch chuck is smaller than the 1/2-inch found on some competitors

“I like the 12v drills. I keep a set at my camp for misc use. Unless you're running 3inch screws all day the 12v set will get you by and it's a bit lighter. Id say 12v is good for general DIY or maintenance work where you dont want to carry as heavy of a tool all day.”Slickdeals community member (Loudog504)
