I believe the "FUEL" logo for power tools is associated with Milwaukee brand tools. But no matter, Makita or Milwaukee, 18 volt, ½ inch drills boast over a 1000 inch/lbs torque which is sufficient for ice auger use.
Low speed, Drill mode. Have fishing because drilling just got easier....Yay!  :tipup:
