The Dewalt DW953 Type 4 Drill is a solid and dependable drill. A long time favorite for home projects this drill has served consumers for a long time now.

The extended runtime version of the Dewalt DW953 Type 4 Drill Battery gives you 54% more battery for your money! This means that you can go from project to project without recharging your battery.
