Buying guide

How to choose a cordless power tool

A cordless tool is really two purchases: the tool and the battery system behind it. Pick a voltage class that covers the jobs you do most. 12V tools are light and ideal for cabinets, furniture and tight spaces. 18V/20V tools are the all-rounders for decks, framing, masonry anchors and metal.

Brushless motors run cooler and get more work out of each charge than brushed motors, so they are worth paying for on tools you use every week. Look at torque for drivers, no-load speed for grinders and saws, and impact energy for rotary hammers.

Impact driver or drill?

Impact drivers sink long screws and lag bolts with little wrist strain. Drills win for clean holes, hole saws and mixing.

Two packs beat one

A kit with two batteries lets one charge while the other works, so you never wait on the charger.

Use impact-rated bits

Standard bits snap under impact loads. Impact-rated bits flex and last far longer.

Common questions

Is 18V the same as 20V?

Yes. 18V is the nominal voltage and 20V is the peak reading of a fully charged pack. The tools are the same class.

What does brushless mean?

The motor is controlled electronically instead of by carbon brushes. It runs cooler, lasts longer and gives more runtime per charge.

Do your power tools come with a warranty?

Every OUTROOM power tool has a 12-month warranty and can be returned within 30 days, with free return shipping in the US.
