I bought and used the Flex drill from Lowes all last year and even using the 2.5 amp battery it worked great attached to my nils 6" auger. Come with a 5 amp battery as well. https://www.lowes.com/pd/24V-1-2-in-Drl-Drv-Kit-Turbo/1002986412
Whatever you end up getting make sure it’s brushless. You will burn out a brushed drill in a matter of holes. Ask me how I know lol. Said brushless only in the Manuel but I though I knew better. I run a Bosch 18v hammer drill with 5 amp batteries works great for me. Biggest reason I ended running the Bosch is because I already had the platform with a bunch of batteries
I like it. Plenty of drill and a good price.
X2 I’m using a M18 fuel with 5amp works fine so far
I have a Rigid 18v octane and it works ok except when you stop it feels like it could break your wrist. I bought one of those Clam drill brackets so hopefully that will solve that issue. If I had to do it over again I’d go with another brand though. I will say I would never go back to using any other auger other than a cordless drill.
great advice and i talked to fred about it too ..... and sure KP might get a phone call soon .... my second thing and i truely amd ignorant on this subject i want to run a 5 inch lazer shaft what else do i need so i don't lose the shaft?this will be my running gunning auger
The drill may not be your issue. It could be the blades of the auger. My SM with laser blades does the same thing, especially just prior to breaking through. I've learned the hard way to proceed slowly when it's near the end.
I use a 18v Rigid brushless hammer drill and 4" mora auger. I've never used more than 1 battery, and if something fails it lifetime warranty on drill and batteries.
dido on the warranty can't beat the Rigid policy I've had batteries and a charger replaced A few minutes on the phone with a couple diagnostic tests by their instructions and you have a new item in the mail PERFECT
