It has a class-leading 570 in./lbs. of turning torque, so it will power through the toughest jobs with ease. A unique two-step speed switch allows you to select from four different speed settings for your fastening and drilling applications.
Always user-friendly, the DS18DL has a comfortable grip that minimizes fatigue on all-day jobs. It also has easy carbon-brush access to help extend the life of the tool. For further ease of use, this driver drill features a convenient five-position belt hook with an integrated LED light.
WH18DL Impact Driver with Cool Flow SystemProducing 1,330 in./lbs. of torque and weighing just 3.5 pounds, the WH18DL Impact Driver is ideal for tackling projects like sinking deck screws, hanging doors, and installing cabinets and windows. The industrial-grade, two-piece motor uses heavy-gauge copper coils to increase both power and durability. Hitachi's unique Cool Flow system further enhances durability by supplying a steady stream of air to the motor for harder and longer impacts without motor burnout.
The WH18DL Impact Driver is powered by lithium-ion technology and features the same easily accessible carbon brush and five-position belt hook as the DS18DL Driver Drill.
HXP Lithium-Ion Batteries Last Longer and Weigh LessThe KC18DDL Combo Kit includes two 3.0-Ah HXP lithium-ion batteries. These batteries weigh half of what traditional NiCd or NiMH batteries weigh--in fact, tools featuring HXP batteries are on average one pound lighter than tools using traditional batteries.
Additionally, HXP batteries last three times longer than their competition. Where NiCd and NiMH batteries could be used for up to 500 charge cycles, HXP Lithium-Ion batteries can be used for up to 1,500 charge cycles!
HXP Lithium-Ion batteries operate within optimal voltage limits, protecting both the tool and batteries from damage. Protection circuitry built into the batteries and charger monitors the charge and discharge for each battery cell, resulting in peak operating performance.
If a surge in power is detected during use, Hitachi's Over-Current Protection technology will temporarily shut of the power to protect the batteries and tool from being damaged. This feature allows the power to return to optimal voltage, thereby extending battery and tool life beyond any competitive lithium-ion products.
HXP batteries come with a two-year HXP Lithium-Ion Battery Warranty, which protects against possible defects in materials and workmanship.
The Industry's Longest Lithium-Ion Tool WarrantyEvery Hitachi cordless power tool is designed to the highest standards and rigorously tested for both performance and durability. All HXP Lithium-Ion cordless tools come with a Lifetime Lithium-Ion Tool Warranty, which protects against possible defects in materials and workmanship.

This review is from: Hitachi KC18DDL 18-Volt Li-Ion Impact Driver and Drill Combo Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)
I compared the Makita, Milwaukee, and this Hitachi. All were Li-ion, all are 18volt, all were combo sets. For the drill, what I found was the Makita had 450in-lbs torque. The Milwaukee had 400 in-lbs, and the Hitachi has 560in-lbs. The Impact driver for the Makita has around 1270in-lbs and the Milwaukee has 1400in-lbs. The Hitachi has 1330. The Hitachi also has a "power" button on the grip. Push up to get the full popwer of the tool, push down to "S" and you'll save battery life. What I've noticed is that the rpm's are slower. It lacked nothing on torque for what I was doing (driving Tapcons).
At the time I purchased this, the Makita was around $300 (+/- a few bucks) and the Hitachi was $284. The Milwaukee was $199. I chose the Hitachi for the increase in torque over the others.
I've used the Makita at work and I like it as well. Both the Hitachi and the Makita have led lights to help out in dark corners. The Hitachi has an orange color and the Makita has a bluish white color. The Makita turns on automatically when you depress the trigger and stays on a few seconds after you release it. The Hitachi has a small button you use to enable the light on or off. I don't recall reading that the Milwaukee had a light, it may, but I'm not sure.
Any cons with the Hitachi? A few, just enough that I didn't give 5 stars. These are just "picky" problems and take nothing away from the abilities of this drill.
One... it weighs a bit less than the Makita and feels "slightly" less durable. The Makita has a bit more rugged feel to it.
Two... the charger takes longer than the 15 minute charger for the Makita. I've not timed it exactly, but it's between 1/2 hr to 45 min to recharge.
Three... This is just a bit of a nuisense, but according to Hitachi's description page, it's a drill protection thing. When the drill needs recharged, it flat out stops. I'd finish driving one screw and the time it takes to place another screw on the bit and pull the trigger... it won't run. This can be a buggar depending on what you're doing.
Four... I'd prefer a hard case instead of a bag, but that's just me.

I would definitely recommend this combo kit. I'm a carpenter and it does whatever I throw at it. Also, on Hitachi's description page it let's you know that there is a 10 year warranty on the drivers and a 2 year on the batteries.
