Is the impact driver powerful enough for lag bolts and deck screws?

Yes. It is rated at 2,250 in-lbs of torque, which handles deck screws and most lag bolt work. Use the lower speed settings for smaller fasteners to avoid stripping.

How long do the 1.5 Ah batteries last?

They are compact packs meant for lighter, intermittent work. Expect noticeably shorter runtime than RIDGID's larger 4.0 Ah and higher packs, so heavy users should plan on a second, bigger battery.

Do these tools work with other RIDGID 18V batteries?

Yes. The kit is compatible with all RIDGID 18-volt batteries, tools and chargers, so existing packs and future bare tools work with it.

What is the Lifetime Service Agreement and how do I get it?

It is RIDGID's program covering eligible tools and batteries for life, and it requires registering the kit within 90 days of purchase. Without registration the standard warranty applies.

What comes in the box?

The drill/driver, the impact driver, two 1.5 Ah batteries, an 18-volt charger, a tool bag and the operator's manual.

Does the drill have a hammer mode?

No. This is a drill/driver with two speed settings, not a hammer drill, so masonry drilling needs a separate hammer tool.
