  1. awesome website, awesome advice, great reviews..thanks guys i bought these two drills in combo sets .. i wanted a lion drill and the retailer told me the dc759 was lion..noooope. although, i bought the milwaukee just to see how it held up..i found this review and decided to test it myself.. i had only a 1.5" task screw spade bit floating around at the time.. (idiot neighbour borrowed my other set, guess i'll never see those again! :/ ) anywho, the milwaukee gassed out in high range (2) after a couple of holes, so i let it cool until the fuel gauge stopped complaining.. drilled another hole..same thing, let the drill sit... i tried the same with the dewalt, about 3 holes in it was experiencing the same thing, but had little or no protection and like a trooper it would have continued... i decided i'd complete the remainder of the test in low range .. i realized my bit is A LOT more aggressive and also larger... so for the sake of the test i continued... so yea, the dewalt immediately after basically gassing out in high range..drilled a total 21 holes or so including the first few the milwaukee (used immediately after i was finished with the dewalt ) fired off a total of 24 holes ...lets just call it 21 and 21 to be fair.. note the milwaukee DID NOT activate protection again... i think the gearing must be a higher ration aka more torque... but yea, the milwaukee doesn't have the cool dewalt features ... like the nice hard casing, the rare earth magnets in the motor, the higher quality chuck...but it did pretty darn good i don't know what was up with the drill the guy had in the video, it must have been a crapper or perhaps the battery issue was fixed? I would probably buy the dewalt, around here i dont think we have a dewalt shop but we do have a milwaukee... so yea, i'd probably buy the dewalt.. but i ended up going red due to the situation hope this helps folks out a bit
