Score: 85/100Rankings
The Metabo HPT 36V MultiVolt is a high-power cordless right-angle drill designed for professional contractors needing significant torque in confined areas. Its main trade-off is the heavy weight and large footprint, which may hinder use in extremely tight spots. It is best suited for electricians and plumbers who prioritize power and safety features like RFC over lightweight portability.
The Makita XAD06Z is a tool-only 18V LXT Lithium-Ion brushless cordless right-angle drill designed for tight-space drilling in demanding applications like electrical, plumbing, and utility work. It features a 7/16" hex chuck and dual LED lights, but the hex-only chuck restricts bit compatibility. It is best suited for professionals in electrical, utility, and plumbing trades needing a compact cordless right-angle drill for overhead or tight-space work.
