Milwaukee M12
Score: 72/100Rankings
The Porter-Cable PCCK619L2 is a versatile 20V MAX combo kit featuring brushless motor options and a compact design suitable for medium to large projects. It offers good impact torque and includes two batteries for extended workflow. However, the drill torque is lower than some competitors, and the charger is basic.
The Milwaukee M12 12V Lithium-Ion Cordless Drill Driver/Impact Driver Combo Kit provides professional-grade torque in a compact, balanced design suitable for one-handed operation. It includes a 3/8-inch drill driver, a 1/4-inch hex impact driver, two 1.5Ah batteries, a charger, and a contractor bag, making it an affordable entry-level solution for light-duty tasks. However, it lacks the advanced features and efficiency of brushless FUEL models, making it best suited for light trade work rather than heavy-duty professional use.
