Variable 2-speed capability adapts for a wide range of drilling/driving applications with a max no-load speed of 2100 RPM. Equivalent to 45 cc gas power with an 8" auger drill bit for post hole digging and tree planting in tough soil. High-efficiency brushless motor runs 50% longer, delivers 25% more power, and has a 10X longer life than brushed motors. Delivers up to 59 ft/lbs of torque and 220 rpm speed.  Bores up to 38 holes in a single charge. The non-slip ergonomic handle ensures a secure grip and better control. The anti-kickback system cuts motor power during unexpected jams for safety.
