ONTO THE TEST:

In this test, we used a piece of 2x12 fir. We also used a 1" spade bit. The test was conducted to see how many holes could be drilled on a single charge, in 2nd gear. We wanted to push these little compacts to see how efficient they use energy under heavy draws.

Both drills performed very well, however the Dewalt DC720 drilled 11 more holes on a single charge than the HITACHI DS18DSAL. The Dewalt DC720 has a slightly larger battery the DW9099 @ 1.7ah. The HITACHI battery has 1.5ah.

DEWALT DC720 Drilled 34 1/2 Holes, or 20 holes per ah.

HITACHI DS18DSAL Drilled 23 1/2 Holes, or 15 holes per ah.
