One of the initial aspect you should think about when selecting a cordless drill driver should be the battery pack as the more volts your cordless drill driver has the more torque you might get. This essentially means that the motor might spin faster creating greater power. The only drawback with this is that the more volts your drill has the heavier it might be.

An Angle Drill is made for use in tight areas. Their main feature is the angled neck. Unlike a conventional drill, an Angle Drills profile allows the drill to be utilized at arms length and in areas where the body of a drill would not allow it access. While they may not be able to deliver the power and torque of a conventional drill they are incredibly handy tools, especially around the home. An example would be drilling a hole on the inside of a drawer to mount a handle, positioning a normal drill could be awkward but the body of an Angle Drill would rise out of the drawer leaving plenty of space for the operators hand.

Any tool should feel like an extension of your hand. The tool may feel great while standing in the store aisle but try to imagine what it might feel like after a few hours of use. While in the store make sure all controls are convenient, and check to see if the forward/reverse and high/low speed switches in particular are easy to use.

Cordless drill drivers are measured in volts. Drills are available in everything from around 2 volts (for a cordless screwdriver) to the newest 24-volt tools. Higher voltage means heavier weight so think about buying a tool that might meet 80-90% of your needs. Twelve to 14.4 volt models are the many popular, and they might usually meet many homeowner's work needs. Corded drills are measured in amps. Generally, a higher amperage motor means more power.

Lithium-ion batteries (sometimes abbreviated Li-ion batteries) are a type of rechargeable battery in which a lithium ion moves between the anode and cathode. The lithium ion moves from the anode to the cathode during discharge and from the cathode to the anode when charging.

Unlike Ni-Cd batteries, lithium-ion batteries should be charged early and often. However, should they are not utilized for a long time, they should be brought to a charge level of around 40% - 60%. Li-ion batteries should be kept cool. Ideally they are stored in a refrigerator. Aging might take its toll much faster at high temperatures. The high temperatures found in cars cause lithium-ion batteries to degrade rapidly. Storing a Li-ion battery at the correct temperature and charge makes all the difference in maintaining its storage capacity. It is significantly beneficial to avoid storing a lithium-ion battery at full charge. A Li-ion battery stored at 40% charge might last many times longer than one stored at 100% charge, particularly at higher temperatures.

For many applications around the house a small set of common twist drill bits might normally serve your needs. You'll also need a drill to turn the drill bits and some tools to measure and mark where you want the hole. This includes a ruler or tape measure, a pencil or scribe and should working with metal, a centre punch and a hammer. The first and most important step is marking where you want the hole. You can also use a scribe on wood or plastic. Sometimes even a pencil might work well. As long as you can see your marks and they don't rub off when working your material it doesn't normally matter. Without a punch mark, the bit would drift around. If it did eventually catch, it would quite likely be in the incorrect location.

There might be occasions when you have to drill a hole at an angle. In these cases drill carefully. You can draw a pencil line on the material noting the angle and then try to follow that pencil guide as you drill. There are also angle guides you can use. Place these over the spot you want drilled with the guide calibrated at the correct angle. Insert the drill bit into the guide and drill away. If you are drilling completely through the material when the drill bit begins to exit out the other side of the material be careful, especially with wood. The drill bit exiting the wood can splinter the wood around the exit point. If it might show, you might want to sand it smooth. Better yet stop the splintering by covering the exit point with masking or duct tape. The tape might decrease should not stop the splintering.

Used for cutting large, fixed, diameter holes in wood or plastic a hole saw might usually cut up to a depth of 18mm though deeper versions are available. Best utilized in a power drill at low speed as the blade saws its way through the material. Sharpening should be undertaken with a fine triangular file - as for an ordinary saw. Like the Hole Saw above, combination saws can cut large holes but they consist of a number of different sized round saw blades, usually ranging from about 25 to 62mm in diameter. Normally the blade are secures by a radial screw in the 'head' with all blades other than the desired sized being removed before the screw is inserted to secure the required diameter blade. Best utilized in a power drill at low speed as the blade saws it's way through the material. Sharpening should be undertaken with a fine triangular file and 'setter' as for an ordinary saw. Forstner drill bits are utilized to form holes with a flat bottom, such as for kitchen cupboard hinges. Best utilized in a power drill held in a drill stand as there's little in the way of a central point. If utilized freehand, the positioning is difficult to control as there is no central pilot bit. Sharpening of the bit should be undertaken on an oilstone or with a fine file. A Wood Auger bit is ideal when drilling large-diameter, deep holes in wood or thick man-made boards. Generally an Auger bit should only be utilized in a hand brace. The bit might cut a clean and deep, flat bottomed holes. The single spur cuts and defines the edge of the hole while the chisel-like cutting edge removes the waste within the previously cut circle. The threaded centre bites into the wood and pulls the bit into the timber. This 'pulling' action means that the bit is really unsuitable for use in a power drill.

DIY Safety tips:

Keep water away from anything electric. Don't even wash walls without turning off the power at the mains switch. Never be tempted to use a socket, plug or equipment which could still have water in or on it - allowing it to dry could mean the difference between life and death. Read manufacturer's instructions on extension cables - they could overheat should left coiled. Check an extension is suitable for the appliance it is connected to.
Store tools in a safe place, out of the way of children and pets. Keep them in a box or a rack. When using knives, always cut away from you. Use a baton as a guide and run a sharp knife along the edge of it. Always store knives securely.

Keep your head: should any of your tools has a loose head or handle, replace the whole tool or have it repaired by a professional. Keep a tool box tidy for easy access and always use the cover guards which come with tools such as saws, knives and chisel blades. Buy equipment and household appliances which are made to a British or European standard or carry an approved product quality and safety mark. There might be a label on the product.

Do not work with electricity in damp or wet conditions. If you MUST, always use an RCD. Always place the cable of a hedge trimmer or mower over your shoulder and keep it behind you at all times.

Be sure you know the correct way to use all the tools. Many have very sharp blades.
