With a maximum torque rating of 470 inch-pounds, Porter-Cable's 19.2-Volt Premium Cordless Drill/Driver Kit 9984 has enough power for any task. This is a great tool for avid DIYers and professionals alike, with high-quality features that include a keyless 1/2-inch ratcheting steel chuck with automatically locking jaws, an adjusting torque collar with 22 settings and a variable-speed trigger switch so you can drill and drive with the best. The two-speed gear shift provides ranges of 0 to 500 revolutions per minute (rpm) and 0 to 1,500 rpm, so the 9984 can handle any type of material.

Powered by a 19.2-volt, 2.0-amp-hour battery, the 9984 offers impressive run times. The 1-hour universal battery charger can be used to charge Porter-Cable 9.6-volt, 12-volt, 14.4-volt and 19.2-volt batteries. The drill size is compact and the weight is well-balanced, though at 5.75 pounds, the 9984 can be a bit heavy to handle. Fortunately, Porter-Cable includes a side handle that gives you additional control and support for more demanding applications.

Interchangeable Grip-to-Fit handle inserts provide a custom fit whether your hands are small, large or any size in between. The 9984 also offers on-board bit storage as an added bonus. We just wish that the torque collar was easier to adjust and the drill was a bit lighter to handle.

The 9984 kit includes two battery packs, the universal charger, a double-ended bit tip, the auxiliary side handle and a heavy-duty carrying case. When you need a tool with plenty of power and torque, Porter-Cable's 19.2-Volt Premium Cordless Drill/Driver Kit 9984 is a tough contender.
