"Great, versatile homeowner drill." 2010-04-22
By Clembert (Los Angeles, CA United States)
This drill is definitely powerful, though for big jobs I'll still break out a corded drill instead of a battery powered one.
Pros:
- powerful.
- definitely drills in concrete up to its rated hole size.
- in driver mode, the clutch is useful to keep you from over torquing.
- reasonably good value.
- good strong metal chuck.
- keyless ratchet chuck.
- Lithium Ion batteries charge quickly.
Cons:
- No side handle can make drilling in tough surfaces (concrete) a little tricky.
- No depth guide.
- Battery life is not fantastic when the drill really has to work (four or five half inch holes in a masonry wall and its time for a fresh battery). Does last all day drilling frequent small wholes in wood or drywall.
Overall this is a fantastic drill that I would recommend to anyone. Best cordless drill you'll ever need (but you'll probably still need a corded one as well for big jobs).
"milwaukee tools" 2010-03-16
By gary dixon (wv usa)
i have worked in the coal mines and i did purchasing for over 35 yrs and when the electricians and mechainics wanted tools to work with you could not afford to buy something that would not hold up and one of the items they always wanted was a milwaukee products because it would hold up in the conditions that the coal miners would put it thru, and that is a lot, so now i only buy milwaukee because of the experence that i had with this product you can save money on other products but when you want something to last, you get what you pay for and milwaukee is one of the best out there because it works for you, and if somthing does happen to this product we never had a problem getting it fixed under warrenty, as long as it was warranty time period but that is rare that something would happen but like all man made things, it does happen, but its rare for milwaukee,
"get the 550 in. lbs. model and not this one" 2010-03-15
By Bryan Sanders (Chicago)
No idea why but Milwaukee makes the 2602 in two versions and this one produces 450 in. lbs. of torque and the other produces 550 in. lbs. of torque. It may be that the smaller battery cannot provide enough juice to the drill motor to sustain more torque as the RPM is the same and the torque load should also be the same for both drills.
I bought the 450 inch pound version and having used the 650 inch pound rated 2611 I found there to be a very big difference in power. Difficult drilling operations that the 2611 could handle would stop the 2602 (450 in. lb. version) in its tracks. This also made a big difference in battery life. Boring a single very large hole with the 2611 would drain 25% of the battery charge. Drilling the same size hole in the same material with the 2602 would drain 100% of the battery charge.
For making holes under 1" diameter in wood or smaller than 3/8" in metal or drilling No. 10 screws that are 2" or shorter and this drill will perform well. But go past this to tougher jobs and the drill quickly stumbles. It is too bad that Milwaukee makes two 2602 drills with much different power ratings. With lithium-ion battery power the problem is actually more pronounced thanks to the overload protection.
We switched over to the new modern big gullet hole cutters last year and now cut holes in a fraction of the time and get many more holes per charge. The 5" size is a good test of a drill's true torque and available power that only takes a few minutes and a sawhorse and some scrap plywood or OSB. The time required to make the hole, the amount of battery charge used, and how smooth the cutting is all varies quite a lot and makes a drill's strength or weakness easy to see and measure.

The Milwaukee drill chuck is excellent as is the clutch and the charger is one of the few intuitive ones that has a red light on when a battery is charging and changes to green when it is complete. Opposite of the way the Hitachi charger works, and the DeWalt charger is also color challenged. Milwaukee makes the best tool cases and the ones for their lithium-ion powered drills are no exception. There is a place for everything that hold everything tightly.
Get the 2602-22 model with the 550 in. lb. rating or get a 2611 which is not a lot more money if you plan on heavy duty use for the drill. Lithium-ion power is both good and bad, and less bad the more powerful the drill and the larger the battery. Lighter drills are fine for light duty tasks but with lithium-ion batteries they also fad quickly when the going gets tough.
Milwaukee 2602-22 M18 18-Volt Cordless 1/2-Inch Hammer Drill/Driver Kit
"excellent light duty drill" 2010-03-01
By Michael Winters
This is not a heavy duty 18 volt drill that can be used anywhere a cord drill would be used, but for general drilling and screw driving it is a very good drill and the kit is the designed of any on the market. It starts when you open the Milwaukee carry case that is very well built and has a nook for every item, nothing bounces around as with other cases, and there is even a small place to put commonly used drills and screw driving extensions. The drill has the graduations marked as part of the collar and recessed so they will never wear off and are easy to see. The clutch adjustment for screw driving is very smooth and the graduations work well for getting the right setting for whatever size screw is being used. The chuck does a good job of holding small bits but when boring where there is a lot of vibration it will loosen and need to be re-tightened (true with Makita and Hitachi chucks as well).
The half size battery cartridge keeps the weight down of the drill but it is also part of what limits the drill to light to medium duty use. Drilling a difficult hole in a tough material like MDF will quickly deplete the battery charge in just a few holes. The half size battery provides half the power for half as long as a full size battery on a drill like the Milwaukee 2611 (which I also own and use).
Hammer action is good and will get the job done for holes in concrete within its rated size range but the drill does not come with a side handle or a way to attach one later and Milwaukee does not make side handles that hold a depth rod. Again this is a drill designed for DIY projects the average homeowner is likely to take on.
Having a LED light is a big plus and it is odd that all drills made today do not include this as a standard item, cord and cordless alike. It not only helps to spot the area to be drilled or a screw head but can be used to check a measurement or a level when the lighting is not great, as in an attic or crawspace or in a closet or cupboard.
The charger works well and is easy to figure out - red when charging and green when it is done. Why all the drill manufacturers cannot make it this simple is something I cannot understand. Milwaukee has a cord that can accept another plug so one outlet can be used for the charger and can still be used for another tool.
For most purposes this kit is all anyone will ever need and the lithium-ion batteries will provide many recharge cycles and they hold a charge for a very long time. When you use a drill infrequently it is great to not have to recharge the battery first every time. This is the real advantage to lithium-ion batteries and makes up for the problems with the overload protection that restricts their ability to power drills.
Truly a class act all the way. But if you do want a drill to put in a new deck or similar projects you will be happier with drills like the Milwaukee 2611 or the DeWalt DCD970 which are in another performance class altogether.
"Max Power, Longest Lasting" 2009-08-02
By R. P. KROENING (SE Wisconsin)
I recently purchased the Milwaukee M18 Hammer/Drill/Driver mainly because of the Brand integrity but also because I was tired of carrying many extra batteries that ran out of juice too soon. This one surprised me, completely. I'm more of a weekend project warrior and this one completed many tasks that I normally would use my old Black & Decker in combination with an electric drill. I actually used this drill for 3 days before I broke out the second battery for the first time. And the available power and torque is amazing, far surpassing the capabilities of even my electric drill. One should note that two hands should be used when you know it will be a tough job because the torque of this lightweight monster could put a serious hurt on your wrist. Now I'm looking to replace ALL my cordless tools with the M18 Family. The M18 6.5 inch circular saw is next on my list. Yeah, they cost more than most of your average tools, but the benefits far outweigh and are totally worth it.
