This $99 DeWalt 20V Max cordless drill kit is a deal you shouldn't miss
DeWalt 20V Max cordless drill kit
Cyber Monday is a great time for DIYers and tool enthusiasts to add a few new tools to the toolbox. I mean, who doesn't need a new tool or two?
And here is an amazing deal on a brilliant DeWalt 20V Max drill kit.

Now, I can't say that I'm much of a tool brand fanboy, but I've grown quite fond of DeWalt power tools. It's a brand that delivers decent tools for fair prices. I've owned several tools from its lineup, including this drill, and they've been heavily used and abused -- to the point where they have been used as a hammer more than once -- and they're all still going strong.
I love this drill, in part because it's compact and lightweight and allows me to do jobs in tight spots that might otherwise be impossible with a power tool. Big drills have their place, but a lot of the time a smaller tool does the job just fine.'
The drill features a high-performance motor with a 2-speed transmission (0-450 & 1,500 rpm), this delivers up to 300 UWO (unit watts out) of power for a wide range of applications.

The drill features a 1/2-inch single sleeve ratcheting chuck that allows it to grip tightly onto drill bits and other tools, and the ergonomic handle allows for comfort and control during prolonged usage.
This kit contains everything you need, and comes with two 20V MAX* batteries, a compact charger, and a durable storage bag to carry your drill and other tools around in.
