Instead of having to guess which clutch, speed, and torque settings are right for a task, you simply pick the icon that most accurately represents that job you're taking on. Correctly setting your drill reduces the possibility of stripping a screw head, snapping a screw off, or driving too far into your work surface.The 11 easy-to-read project icons let you account for driving small and large screws, drilling narrow and wide holes, and working with wood, metal, or plastic. Even experienced craftsmen are likely to enjoy the way this eliminates the trial and error process, which can result in damaing your work surface or project materials.

And since this drill is cordless, you won't have to worry about straying from your power source, tripping, or threading a cord into an awkward space for a quick repair.Any tool that fits comfortably in your hand improves your ability to get jobs done quickly and precisely, and a well balanced drill is no exception. This Smart Select Drill offers a T-style handle placed near the middle of the drill for improved comfort. The T-style grip distributes the tool's weight so that it doesn't tip forward and work against you on the job. And a T-style grip reduces wrist strain, so you can work comfortably for longer.Another great feature is the keyless chuck, which means you'll never have to worry about a misplaced chuck key bringing work to a standstill. It's easy to change bits quickly, and you're less likely to have to stop and take protective gloves off than you would be with a keyed system. You'll find the ease of this setup extra convenient if you need to switch between driving and drilling often or if you wear gloves on the job.This Smart Select Drill is backed by a full two-year warranty.What's in the Box12V Drill/Driver, 12V battery, DC charger, and one double ended screwdriver bit tip.

The end result is a battery that's super-compact and 60-percent lighter than Black & Decker's Ni-Cad power tool batteries. And the VPX holds a charge longer, too -- so it's ready to work whenever you are. With its versatile design and Black & Decker exclusive technology, a VPX battery is interchangeable with all the products in Black & Decker's growing VPX line.

This saw even cuts Closetmaid shelving to make that perfect custom fit. The Cordless VPX Flashlight The VPX1401 flashlight is designed to fit right in the palm of your hand, and it features three bright LED lights for plenty of illumination in any position. The flashlightâ��s pivoting head adjusts so you can direct the light wherever you need it most, and its integrated flat surfaces let you rest the light in three different positions. An adjustable bungee cord can be used to twist the light securely around 2-by-4 beams, pipes or tree branches; or use the belt clip to keep the flashlight close and steady while you walk. The VPX1401 is powered by a single 7-volt VPX battery. Applications Use the VPX1401 LED flashlight when you're working on anything that needs a little extra light to help you finish the job.
