Bosch Compact 18V Drill Price Drop
Last week I talked about the best $100 cordless drill kit options, and mentioned that I liked the Bosch DDB181 the best out of the bunch. I just checked, and it dropped back down in price to $100 on Amazon. (Buy it Now). In the past it hasn’t been eligible for Bosch’s holiday discount offers, so if you want this drill for this price, you might as well buy it now.
5 Minutes with Metabo 18V Cordless Power Tools
I got my hands on a couple of Metabo 18V cordless power tools today, but could only spin them up for a couple of minutes. I’ll have to charge up the batteries and find some holes to drill, screws to drive, and large fasteners to loosen or tighten tomorrow or this weekend.
But in those 5 minutes… wow!
No joke, I think these tools are disrupting everything I knew about the brand. So much about them is just different than what I’m used to.
Here’s my recent preview of Metabo’s compact 18V drill/driver.
Milwaukee LED Stand Light and Floodlight Are Almost Here!
Milwaukee’s M18 LED stand light popped up on Home Depot, with a $249 price tag. Honestly, I’m not too surprised by this price, although I had anticipated that Milwaukee would try to get a little more under Pelican’s RALS tripod-stand LED light, which is as low as $242 and comes with a carrying case.

Their new M18 floodlight worklight also recently made an appearance. Its price is $149.

I put a lot of work into my Milwaukee M18 and M12 LED lighting products preview, so please check that out. Out of all the products I saw, handled, or tested at Milwaukee’s 2015 media event (see full ToolGuyd coverage here), the M18 LED stand light is one of the top 5, maybe even top 3, new tools that I am most excited about.
ToolGuyd Should Review a…
Okay, so you guys do NOT want to see a review of Nepros’ adjustable wrench. Phew, that was a close one!
Can you think of a more interesting hand tool that you’d like to see reviewed here on ToolGuyd? Bonus points if it’s an offbeat brand!
Deal Reminder
That Fein $169 brushless drill/driver kit deal is still going strong. Supplies are limited so… buy now or forever regret your hesitation. Okay, so maybe that’s a little harsh, but I really was told that supplies are limited. This is something like a 1-time deal meant to reduce inventory.
