If you mean you can use it for hours it might but it will probably get hot to the touch. You can only use it plugged in. You can't charge it.

It's not cordless, has to be plugged in to use. It does have a really long cord though.

It is a plug-in model meaning that it can only work when connected to a wall outlet. It has the longest cord available on the market, in addition to some unique accessories that other drills don't have. However Vogue Professional model no. 6675 is a cordless and rechargeable drill that is truly portable.

Katherin, I purchased a new drill/driver and the warranty is 5 years on the drill and 2 years on the batteries.. I am very pleased with the quality and power of this drill. I could have purchased many cheaper ones, but all of my other hand/electric tools are Milwaukee and have given me many years of trouble free operation..The case is strong and well made, but does not leave much usable room for bits, and accessories. I transferred everything to another case...

On a full charge, the parent unit can last a good 10 hours. We have frequently left it unplugged overnight without realizing it and it was still charged in the morning when we found it. I have also found that the less your depend on the battery, the longer your charge will last when you do need it.

I leave mine plugged in all the time when not in use. The battery hasn't been a problem for me.

This is not a quick charge battery. It takes a few hours for a complete full charge. By charging slower it seems to hold a charge much longer than the quick charge batteries. I prefer to slow charge for that reason. Holds charge much longer than my DeWalt and Porter Cable drills. The only negative I can say about this drill is the chuck does not hold a drill bit very well. In fact not good at all. Consider the Porter Cable also which I like much better than my DeWalt.

You use an electric drill. It works better with a corded drill. A cordless battery goes dead too soon.

Julie, I use both a cordless battery powered drill and a corded electric drill. Battery for small quick jobs and the corded for longer duration jobs like grout and tile cleaning a large bathroom. Hope this helps! : )

It is portable but, you will have to plug it in to your clients electric. I did see that Medicool has a cordless chargeable drill. That might be more of what you would be looking for. I think they said the charge holds for 10 hrs. Just my thoughts, been in the business since 1995. Hope that helps ;-)

From what I am seeing online, you can keep it plugged in to last longer (charge it). It lasts for about 15 minutes when fully charged and lasts for a long, long time (no real time table for the battery though). Can be a year, can be 5 years depending on usage.

The keyboard can be used pugged in or unplugged. But I found you can leave it unplugged for a long time because it hold a good charge.

This Bosch drill / driver has 1.5 Amp hours. I am using mine for home use, but have gone 4 or 5 days of serious use and have still not had to recharge the battery. As listed, this drill also comes with 2 rechargeable batteries. I hope this answer is adequate. If not, please clarify.

I have used it while plugged in but at the sink. I would be really careful using it around water though while plugged in. You don't want to get electrocuted. It does charge quickly and does hold a charge for a long time but I don't use it every day.

yes, its really nice, for small jobs, its a small drill and it only comes with one bit, but it has both a flat screwdriver head or if you flip it over a phillips head, and it does come with a charger , the battery is internal . I just used mine for a quick job and had to look, I think if the battery went bad a some point it would be probably cheaper to buy another, but for small jobs, i really like it

You'll need to define heavy usage. However, I have personally drilled 18 holes in RCC walls (to put up grills), before the battery died on me.Also, there are 2 batteries in the set, so double the fun.I've been using this kit for 3 years, and never got into a situation where I was left without the battery juice. The charging only takes a couple of hours.

Fit bits can't be recharged. You must replace the battery when it dies. Battery life is pretty good. Hope this helps

you can use it plugged in but it only takes 15 mins to charge mine. I have used it for 2hours on a charge. I would not let it plugged in all the time the heat of the charge will shorten the internal battery life over time.

You will see the battery light turn off once the battery is full. There should be no reason that it can remain plugged in. The battery is a Lithium Battery, just like most cell phones. Now with that said...all of us have used our cell phones while it is plugged in and they tend to get hot. My advice would be to use this as it was designed. Charge it....unplug it....use the speaker..recharge when battery is low. There are other bluetooth speaker that you can get that don't have a rechargeable battery in them that will remain plugged in via their own AC Adapter. I personally dont like to use my portable gadgets that have rechargeable batteries while they are plugged in.
