I was impressed by this drills performance. Even after being submerged in water, its still works. Overall its a great starter drill for the price. I did not test durability or long-term performance use.

I got this Warrior drill at $12 with a coupon a couple years ago, charged it, used it to drill a few holes and screws and put it down for over a month. When I needed it again, I thought- Better charge it, but when I checked if it ran, she ran! Still fully charged! Went and got the impact with another coupon (can use same battery) it’s a great little driver for a few bucks! 👍

[@WhosTheVoss]

True that! It might make a few more appearances :)

[@FounderOf4]

I was shocked that the battery worked after the dunk. That tool will be a great addition for someone that is tired of switching between drilling and driving with the same tool. Great stuff Aaron!

[@WhosTheVoss]

Thanks buddy. I watched a donut media video where the submerged a few impact drills and they ran for a good 30 seconds underwater

[@naturaIIydifferent]

I've been using one of these for light duty stuff at work for almost 10 years. It holds a charge for a long time, even if it's been stuck in a cold car overnight, and just keeps on working. And if it ever breaks, I can buy 4-5 replacements before hitting the price point of a bigger brand name drill.

[@WhosTheVoss]

Eggozactly, not everybody needs the biggest and baddest equiptment! I use Craftsman mainly for the warranty and because Dewalt is 2x the price :P

[@ronswoodshack]

Skip McDonalds! lol! I bought this little drill several years ago in a pinch and it did what I needed it to do. Great review!

[@WhosTheVoss]

Honestly it was a pretty good little drill! I didnt do a durability test but she does get the job done :)

[@Boondockbuilds]

Awesome tool review. The water test surprised me when you brought it back to life. You mad little scientist you. 😂 heading over to watch your other video. 🤘🏼

[@WhosTheVoss]

🤣🤣 i was so shocked! (Not literally) Lol shes a fighter

[@hansdegroot8549]

Great test. I'd buy two of them (one for drilling and one for screwing) + one extra battery (if possible) I have something similar (Parkside/LIDL, probably not known in the US), also 12V which cost 50 USD 7 years ago. Still going strong (I bought a second battery after 3 years, just to be sure). It's doing about 65% of my drilling work. For more power I have a corded drill and a 20V battery drill (quite heavy) and a drill press for more precise drilling + hole saws, forstner bits, etc.

[@WhosTheVoss]

I like it! More than one drill so you don't have to switch bits so often :)

[@brandonh3803]

Love the videos thank you i have got some of your plans "free" thanks to you because you care about us poor people and are willing to help share thank you again keep up the work.

[@WhosTheVoss]

Thanks Brandon! I don't need to nickel and dime you guys, I know woodworking is expensive! Lol

[@brandonh3803]

@WhosTheVoss thank you again. Have you thought about building a rocking chair i cant find anything worth watching atleast they really dont explain how to but i am unterested in finding plans to build my handycap mother with bad legs a log rocking chair i build log beds and night stands but cant figure out the curved parts or angles. Thank you again for the best videos our there

[@WhosTheVoss]

I started reading this and thought "yeahhh i dont know how they do the curved bottom rocker parts" lol, it would be a cool build though!

[@brandonh3803]

@@WhosTheVoss i would love to learn also

[@FrugalShave]

LOL! Years ago I worked at Home Depot. I cannot tell you how many times I read the box to a customer with questions.

[@WhosTheVoss]

🤣🤣 its always a time saver! Or "whats the difference between these two items" one box clearly has an extra line of text on the front lol

[@KalenSavoy]

Well thanks, I might just buy my 4 year old his first drill. This is cheaper than a toy drill and actually works

[@WhosTheVoss]

I like it! It would be a good play drill; maybe lock the chuck shut though

[@morethanenoughwoodworks7654]

I have that exact drill. It also came with an LED 'drill shaped' flash light. Perfectly fine drill for small house hold projects and pre-drilling projects etc. Warrior is a crappy brand in general. I bought of their angel grinders that literally got too hot to hold after like 5 minutes. Total trash- but this drill is actually pretty nice.

[@WhosTheVoss]

I saw the tool combo pack with the flashlight 🔦 :) its a pretty alright drill for $15. Now im curious about the grinder lol

[@sidehustlesenior]

It's handy, but for ten bucks more you can get the 18V. I have three of these and , yes, they will handle a small hole saw just fine. Great to have pilot bit drill and a countersink drill and a drill left over to install the screw without having to change every time.

[@PiercesPerfectPieces]

Yeah, but who wants to spend $25 when you can spend $15!! 💸

[@WhosTheVoss]

The 18v also has more tool variety at Harbor Freight, still a good little drill for $15

[@dimesonhiseyes9134]

I don't think those numbers indicate speed. That is a clutch for torque settings. When you want to set a limit on the amount of torque the drill will apply.

[@WhosTheVoss]

You're 100% right, I got hooked on the word "speed" after bringing up the motor 🤷‍♀️ good catch buddy :)

[@deadtolove]

If all I ever did was assemble Ikea or Walmart type furniture and do small repairs around the house this drill would be more than enough for me. I might get my kid one for his first apartment.

[@WhosTheVoss]

100% ! It's a great little drill :)

[@justinbanks2380]

Is that what the clutch settings are for? To make nice array of slightly more sunk screws? 😂 I kid. And "everything wants to slap you in the shop, this one just does 90% of the time" 😂😂😂

[@WhosTheVoss]

Thats maybe the second time I've ever adjusted the clutch setting on a drill. Lol ;P

[@Oxcart19-s8r]

Ha ha, your excitement when the drill came back to life after the dunk test. And the "skip McDonald's, buy a drill" comment, ha ha.

[@WhosTheVoss]

🤣🤣 I was blown away! I figured she was toast

[@frog5089]

Great demonstration! The obstacle course was brilliant!

[@WhosTheVoss]

Thanks buddy :)

[@kichwatembo6551]

I have seen this drill on many job sites mostly dudes that do electrical

[@WhosTheVoss]

🤣🤣 perfect for those short cover screws!

[@steveg7000]

TLDR don't expect much more of a $15 drill that you wouldn't expect of a $15 electric screwdriver.

[@WhosTheVoss]

Mic drop ;) I like it

[@douglasfuentes2737]

They also have 18 V drill

[@WhosTheVoss]

I saw! And its not too much more than this little guy, I wonder if its the same motor or if the 18v would deliver a little more power

[@danh6746]

Haha this was great. The *I should have known better* with the "well now you know you can't submerge the drill in water" and excitement when she started working again. Keep it up bro you're killing it!

[@WhosTheVoss]

🤣🤣 thats buddy :) I couldnt believe it came back to life! Im a little scared to charge it butttrt I might give it a try :P

[@VitalPolymath]

2 vids in a day?! Is it my birthday? Nope

[@WhosTheVoss]

🤣 🤣 thought Id try out a tool review since the other video didnt take me too long to finish. Shes a fighter! Lol

[@justintravis7207]

It's brushed you can only stick brushless underwater

[@WhosTheVoss]

WHAT! Dang. Donut Media held a few drills underwater and they kept going for quite a while, probably because they were brushless 🤷‍♀️

[@khiaraslaw]

Didn’t know it went viral. Gave one for Christmas and it broke the first use..

[@WhosTheVoss]

Yikesssss. This drill has been popping up all over my feeds :P did you also try the underwater repair? ;)

[@khiaraslaw]

@WhosTheVoss lol nope am guess he used to doing something out it's capabilities or just got a dud.

[@RuffStuff420]

I have never bought something at harbor freight and felt like I didn't get my monies worth. I hate hearing people shit on their tools, I really do. These are people that think they are gonna pay 15 bucks and get a drill on the level of a 100 dollar dewalt. That's not gonna happen. If you need a drill on the level of a dewalt then buy a fucking dewalt. If you need a drill to put up some pictures at home, then buy the cheapest drill you can find. My entire workshop is bought from harbor freight. Scroll saw, ban saw, router table, table saw, chop say, planer, jointer, dust collector, as well as every electric hand tool like my hand planer, radial sander, literally everything. Wanna know how many items I have EVER returned to harbor freight? 0.

[@WhosTheVoss]

Eggozactly!! :) Most times they have decent stuff

dude, props on the content, but NO, this drill never went VIRAL, HF is massively inconsistent with their quality control, the warrior brand is TRASH AF. you dont gotta lie to get views, ur likable.
