Lowest Price Campbell Hausfeld PL154599AV 3/8-inch Reversible Drill

This drill has everything going for it. The fit and finish are excellent. It has very little runout, and Campbell Hausfeld didn't scrimp on the chuck; it's a Jacobs. I love the compact size and contoured grip; this drill feels like an extension of my hand. It's very good for drilling in tight places.
Here's a couple of tips...
Like most air drills, this one doesn't have variable speed, so you need to be ready when you hit the trigger.
For continuous or heavy use, It's a good idea to use an in-line or stationary oiler. And flood the drill with oil before you use it for the first time. I poured a teaspoon into the inlet as Campbell Hausfeld recommends.Get more detail about Campbell Hausfeld PL154599AV 3/8-inch Reversible Drill.

RIDGID 24V/18V Max Select XLi Lithium-Ion Hammer Drill Best Quality

The chuck is bad and i know someone else with the same drill and he has the exact same problem.

Bought when the kit first came out 3 years ago or so. Drill had a jacobs chuck (keyless - u just grasp it and spin the drill and it locks up and this is the prevailing set up for all drills now). Anyhow, since the day i bought it, the chuck would have difficulty equally "snugging" itself around the shaft of anything i put in it, whether a round drill bit or hex bit. I would almost always (literally 90% of the time) have to redo it at least once, sometimes 7-8 times, before it would seat properly and there have been times where i literally gave up.

I lived with it assuming it was just "my" drill even though I scrutinized the chuck "well" closely and could see nothing wrong with it. Then a sat dish installer came over to my house one day and i noticed he had the same set up. So we were talking about it and I asked him if he had any trouble with the chuck and he just looked at me and he said "Yes! I thought it was just me or just this drill but you are having the same problem???" So the point is that I know it is not just me or my drill and also, I am a contractor with 30 employees, all my friends are contractors, so i buy tools by the truckload.

If I were using this as a professional installer, I don't know how i'd live with it and I use it strictly for home projects where speed isn't issue.

In addition, my drill has recently developed some sort of motor problem. While drilling at full speed it will increase/decrease RPM without my adjusting trigger pressure so the motor is either going bad or the relay is going bad. This is sad because I would say that as far as usage, I would be an the lowest end of the spectrum meaning I rarely, rarely use my drill. It barely had a scratch.

It's too bad because the power and the batteries are amazing and the rest of the kit is great. The saw and sawzall are amazing but I cannot recommend at all in fact, avoid this drill like the plague.
