Summary: Let down
Comment: The biggest disappointment with this drill is that it won't charge below 32 deg F, pretty major setback for winter work that I've never seen on any other model, and I've used many. Where other chargers blast the battery with juice until it heats up enough to accept a charge Bosch just shows a red error light. Even when I brought it inside and it finally warmed above freezing it only trickle charged at cold temps taking hours to fill. I called Bosch and they said that the Litheons are the same way so I returned mine and ordered a NiMh of a different brand, more amp hours and maybe I'll actually be able to use this one. Also the softer break "durashield" housing is more prone to scratches and won't help you anyway if you drop it on the cheesy plastic chuck my model came with.

Summary: INCREDIBLY GOOD
Comment: I count this in the top five purchases in my life. Extemely high quality, very powerful. If you use this drill in any normal way, you will be very happy. If you use it in abnormal ways (see below) you will be astounded.
It drilled a half inch hole in BRICK with cheap bits intended for a hammer drill (the bits didn't survive!). I only managed to max out the drill trying to extract rusty 3/8 inch lag screws from treated 4 X 4's, but my conventional plug-into-the-wall-drill did no better (I was using an adapter to drive hex ratchet sockets). When I say max out, there is some kind of safety torque thing which keeps the drill from harm.
The batteries last a long time, even in heavy abuse.
This drill passes the ULTIMATE consumer test, in which the manufacturer must be smarter than the user, and foresee the user's lack of expertise.
EXTRA Value: 2 batteries, long warranty.
Wow.
