Our take on the BOSCH 18V Compact 1/2" Drill/Driver Kit

The Bosch GSR18V-400B12 is a compact 18V brushless drill/driver aimed at pros and serious DIYers who work overhead or in tight spots. It puts out up to 400 in-lbs of torque from a tool under 2 lbs with a 6.3-inch head length, so it balances power against reach. The 20-clutch all-metal chuck and two-speed gearbox cover everything from driving screws to boring holes. Against compact rivals like DeWalt's and Makita's 18V drills it trades a little peak torque for a shorter, lighter body, and owners generally rate the brushless motor and runtime highly.

About the BOSCH 18V Compact 1/2" Drill/Driver Kit

The Bosch GSR18V-400B12 is an 18V compact brushless 1/2 in. drill/driver kit. The brushless motor provides efficient power and longer runtime and lifetime than brushed models. It delivers up to 400 in.-lbs. of max torque from a tool that weighs less than 2 lbs.

The head length is 6.3 in., which makes the drill easy to control in tight spaces and for overhead work. The grip has a small diameter for better hold and comfort. An all-metal chuck gives durable bit retention, and a built-in LED lights dark work areas.

The drill has 20 clutch settings to match the force to the task and reduce fastener damage. Variable speed controls operating speed. Electronic Cell Protection helps protect the battery from overload, and Electronic Motor Protection helps protect the motor from overheating. The 18V batteries and chargers work with Bosch 18V power tools and cordless products from AMPShare brands.

Questions and answers

Is this drill powerful enough for deck building?
It handles driving screws and moderate holes, but 400 in-lbs is below high-torque 18V drills. For large auger bits or long deck screws, a heavier-duty model is a better fit.
Does it come with a battery and charger?
Yes. The kit includes one 2.0 Ah 18V battery, a charger, a belt clip and a carrying bag.
Can it drill into masonry?
No. It is a drill/driver without a hammer mode, so it suits wood, metal and plastic, not concrete.
How does it compare with Bosch's larger 18V drills?
It is shorter and lighter but gives up peak torque. Choose this for overhead and tight-space work, and a larger model for heavy boring.
What chuck size does it take?
It has a 1/2-inch all-metal keyless chuck, so it accepts standard 1/2-inch shank bits.
Where is the BOSCH 18V Compact 1/2" Drill/Driver Kit cheapest?
At The Power Tool Store, for $125.00, as of our latest check.
