ETCD01-18 FAQ
1. Is 18V or 12V better for a cordless drill driver?
18V gives more sustained power for trade use; 12V wins on weight and price for light work. The ETBD01-18 is the 18V generalist.
2. What is the max drilling capacity?
Approximately 10mm in steel and up to 25-30mm in softwood with appropriate bits; it is not a masonry drill.
3. Does it share batteries with other ETpower tools?
Yes - it runs on our shared 18V platform battery, and one charger serves the whole 18V line.
4. Why choose the ETCD01-18 over the 45Nm models?
If most work is general drilling and screw driving, 24Nm is enough and the price is lower. Choose 45Nm when large bits or big screws appear daily.
5. Can I brand it for my company?
Yes - OEM/ODM with logo, colours, and packaging. The 18V platform can be built around your brand across multiple tool types.
6. What is included in the kit?
Standard: drill driver, battery, charger, bits, carry case. Configurable for your market.
7. What is the duty rating?
It is a light-to-medium trade tool; for heavy continuous drilling consider our pro 21V tier.
