Yes works with all 20v batterys but if y put a 4.0ah or even a 3.0ah battery U will be drilling forever I love my BL hammerdrill

yes works just as well with compact batteries as it does with extended life batteries just requires more frequent battery changes

I already had Dewalt 18 volt XRP NiCAD batteries and charger for other tools so I only needed the drill. The battery mount is also smaller to fit better with the smaller but more powerful Lithium batteries in case you ever want to use lithium batteries.

It will probably do the job, once, maybe. The batteries on mine did not work at all after 6 months. A friend of mine got one new with dead batteries that won't take a charge at all form the charger. It might be a good temporary drill if you want to buy a new one all the time.

Yes. It works the best when using a cordless drill. The cord doesn't get in the way.

I use this drill all the time for repairing equipment, works great and battery life is great, should work fine for what you are looking for

I use mine with 20v max tools.Drill, cut out, reciprocating saw, and impact drill. All with the same battery.

I've driven 31/2" screws with mine with no problem. This drill has more power t6han you'd think. I've never had a problem with the battery getting hot either

yes, it's strong enough for that. and for the small hand. But I think Black & Decker LI3100 Compact Lithium-Ion is the one I had before and It was more powerful, I wish I had that one

I haven't but I know it will work on any kind of a power drill...battery or corded. It does a good job.

The battery will work with the drill driver. Just exercise caution in the use of the tool as it is very powerful. Best wishes, Henry.

Yes. Probably won't last as long but it will work with the compact battery.

You are incorrect about the torque output of the drill with the smaller battery. The difference is in the run time, not the power.

Tried it in my B&D; cordless and they work. Awfully big drill for this small tool. Works better in a Dremel or similar.

Yes, I tried it with the circular saw, reciprocating saw, and cordless drills and no problem. I'm not sure they have the capacity to hold its charge as long as the xrp which came with the kit, but I have been using these new batteries for a couple of month and they seem to be holding up fine.

I've had this drill for less than a year, and I have had no problem at all with the batteries or any other aspect of the tool.

I suspect a little depends on the drilling material. I've used mine in tight places with up to #8 screws through pre-drilled shelves. I wanted a light drill for hard to get to places without the cumbersome flat type batteries. (of which I have several)
