Going to be a chore to drill 8" with ANY hand held electric drill.  Tournament guys like the Milwaukee Fuel...but they are turning 4-5" bits...I'd think of something else if you have to turn an 8"...
If I\'m not fishing, I\'m probably thinking about fishing...And if I\'m thinking about fishing, I\'m probably not getting much else done so, I might as well go fishing...Yeah, I just said that!

I run my 8" Lazer bit with my Rigid 18V from Home Depot with no issues.  I'm sure it is not good for the drill, but it has a lifetime warranty.
