The fact that you can use both 12v AND 20v batteries on the same drill is an awesome selling point on it's own. Let alone being able to chuck in two bits at the same time. Thanks Clint!
@@Pepe-dq2ibyeah, one of my biggest knocks with skil so far. Need a better chuck. But this here gizmo isn't meant for heavy work. More of a utility item for around the house maybe some light diy. Otherwise, I been happy with the other skil tools I have so far, especially the router for a entry-mid level one
tbh, I think you can get a more rugged, powerful and reliable set of separate drill with variable speed via the trigger switch and impact plus two batteries and charger at that price from Amazon, Harnor Freight, Lidl or the likes. From the old days I have love for the Skil brand but this just aint cutting it.
Nope I hang curtains for living and this is not getting through metal brackets or concrete Shape is also terrible for drilling too close to ceiling I use 2 tools , a driver and a hammer drill I use Milwaukee, I think they make best tools
@@AntonioAugusto1010 Yesterday I hung blinds in bathroom and upper staircase using this tool. I had no problem drilling metal or issues with space. Yes concrete I would use hammer drill but no concrete by my windows. It did fantastic. Mine came with a 2ah 20v battery. I did staircase with that and could have done many more with that battery but grabbed a 12v to test with bathroom. Definitely slower speed on 12v but no problem with task at hand. Next I will be using it to replace Mortise Keyed Lock Set on interior doors.
@@AntonioAugusto1010 Just did another one today with this tool. No problems. I did use 20v battery instead of 12. While I am not a professional blind/curtain guy I did replace over 60 blinds at work 5 or so years ago with regular drill. Granted it may be a little easier but periodically installing with this tool is not a problem. Also replacing hardware on 9 doors. One door completely done and another door I have lock done. Lots of drilling and driving and no qualms. Now I don’t think I’d use it as a full time curtain/blind installer or full time locksmith or cabinet repair person but as a home owner or as a handyman or apt maintenance it is a fine tool.
Interesting review, thanks for doing these. Older guys like myself remember when skill was one of the top tool brands, if you doubt it ask an older carpenter about the SKIL Worm drive circular saws, and while many of us DIYers have moved onto cordless tools from Milwaukee, etc., I do enjoy seeing some of the creative tools coming out of SKIL, Porter Cable, Ryobi, and others. Realistically, most homeowners will do just fine with the “Lesser” brands out there. Most of the lower end products really seem to have stepped up their game from when the market sank a few years back and most of them are actually better than tool snobs give them credit for. I agree that if you need a tool that can take a beating, you are better off paying for the extra durability of the premium brands however.
Skil and Skilsaw are two totally different things. My tablesaw, two of my four circular saws (the other two are Festool) AND my miter saw are all wormdrive. They are all Skilsaw. My sliding 12" miter has crown molding stops, an LED cutline, and is so solidly built. And it's all wormdrive. It was $650 when I bought it, not the most expensive but I love them all. I have two Skil wired orbital sanders that were $35 each. I use them when i don't want to pull out my 20v Dewalt. I've put both of those sanders through their paces, and all I've replaced is the pad. And if you buy a nice pad for it, you will totally upgrade your sander. The guy who started Bosch is one of the two inventors of wormdrive, which might explain why their tools are pro grade and innovative. I'm on the Dewalt platform, so I'm not some fan boy. And to be honest, idk what the point was to anything I just wrote. I want the Skil nailer, see how it holds up. Great video as always my man, thanks for showing that Skil tool. Appreciate you keeping us entertained and informed.
I also love the WORX switch driver with power share so much that I bought 2. And I also use it a lot. WORX also makes other tools that I use my power share cell for my weed wacker and my leaf blower and my WORX vacuum and other tools that are to many to mention.
The milwaukee Installation Tool is seriously one of the handiest tools in the world. This Skil is pretty much 90% of that tool. If you don't need to work in insanely difficult spaces, this Skil is the ticket. Skil is flat killing it lately.
Okay I do think that having the type C charging port or it being able to charge your devices as well is pretty sick. Also having the ability to run the tool as 12V or 20V is pretty sick aswell!
Good review enjoy watching. 👍 You forgot to mention that the trigger is variable speed thus even more useful. I have to find the good price for this Cyber Monday sales.
The M12 Installation Driver is the king for electrical trims. The offset chuck is amazing for any fixture where the screws are tight to the wall/ceiling, can drive 4 inch screws no problem, drills decent size holes, and so damn light you don't even notice it.
@kj12345671 I have one and love it, I would like this one for just switches/outlets and faceplate. The usb one the batteries is also tempting, more compact than my m18 inverter.
Mind Reading = Mind Blown UA-cam can officially read minds!! i heard people say my phone listens to me and feeds me ads, but i litterally just THOUGHT last night how cool a tool like this would be to have! And this morning I saw this video! WTF! Get out of my head UA-cam
@@VortexVibe634 He's a straight shooter after watching a few of his videos. I've got DeWalt 20v and Milwaukee 12v platforms. 3/8" drive Stubby on the want list.
Not heavy duty enough for most of my work, but it would be silly handy in those times when you are up on a ladder trying to juggle, drill, driver, and material.
.. worm drive Skill Saw will always be the front runner for me, as is the Stanley tape, but that's probably about it though as far as tools I know well.
Clinton, the fact either voltage battery works is a huge plus. Wish one side was a drill chuck and it would be perfect for pocket holes. The brand Worx has the Switch drill which is two chucks, but I feel the Skil brand is much better quality
I had a couple Similar types of these dual drills 10 or so years ago, I just loved them so i bought another one. Well after 5 or 6 months they started falling apart in the gear mechanism and had to ditch the both of them. so I'm a little skeptic with these now. Best of luck with them, hope they last longer for you.
I know "skill" for about 50 years. Still have a drill with hamer function and an circulaire saw, from about the same age. Then they where grey. And still working fine. This one is a bit as what we have here on a "works" . And it is really handy
I like the tool A lot. I’ve been noticing the skill drills at Lowe’s and I feel real good in the hand and very powerful. I don’t have any skill tools in that powerline my batteries are all the wall or Milwaukee. But I would definitely consider it
Thats cool. Having an adjustable torque chuck is kinda necessary for a drill (so you don't overdrive screws), especially when it isn't an impact. I'll still take my m12 installation driver over this. But it's a cool tool.
It's not a impact drill, it's basically 2 regular small drills on one body. It does not compete with your 20v 1/2in drill or any 20v impact drill for power but can do a lot for its size.
That's a very cool tool. Skil has some very different tools that some brands don't even have. Nice to have a drill and a impact in one! Never seen that before. Wish ryobi would make one know. Do a shop tour? Thank you.
Right? Like, make the swapping possible one-handed. Two tools is faster and simpler for this purpose because of that. If they were able to make it one handed, WITH power settings for each bit, that would be absolutely game changing.
I don’t think skil ever really fell off, everyone still calls a circular saw a skil saw because they were the first to make a portable handheld circular saw and they made the best for over 65 years. You’re right I wouldn’t let my framers use skil products because they are a rough bunch and only Milwaukee stands up to their brutish ways but if a plumber or electrician showed wants to use them I’m sure they would get more than their moneys worth for a long time. I love the skil beam saw
The next version will likely have improvements and more useful features. As for the brand, it used to be one of the best for the money. I don't know how it is now, with the way some companies make their products have built in flaws that makes you have to go buy another one after a couple of years. I don't know if Skil is one of those companies. I had a professional Skilsaw, that could take a 10 inch blade. It was a workhorse of a powertool. It wasn't cordless, and I liked that. When batteries get low in power, the tool tends to get less powerful. With a power cord, you don't have that problem.
Cool! Makes you think if it's reeeally that much more convenient than have a quick release and swapping on the fly. But if you were up on a stool or ladder, possibly wearing gloves? Oh yeah lol

Cool find! Any word on the batteries ? Are they compatible with anything else on the market ? I would assume that the manufacturer behind Skil would invent yet another battery ecosystem…?
@ToolReviewZone so it actually charges the phone at superfast pace? Wow The m12 does have the fast charge feature and the m18 tower has the superfast with the USB-C
You don't need an impact when you have a pilot hole the one thing I can see being a problem is the length of drill bit one can put in there but I guess a guy wouldn't be driving huge fasteners with it
WORX makes a 20v drill that does the same thing, just a different design on how the 1/4 chucks swivel. I believe I remember in the 00's, there was an "as seen on TV" version that was the same design as the currently available WORX model. Kinda cool, but also kind of gimmicky concept, especially when it's almost just as fast to swap out 1/4 drive bits with a normal driver that won't have the potential problems this may have. Would be interesting to see a teardown video of the SKILL vs. WORX designs.
Saw a video of a guy compare it to the M12 hammer drill.. It's not a good comparison. It's actually better compared to the installation driver; I mean just looking at it just kind of makes sense. Although, I do sorta wish one of these brands made a 12v copy of the "electric screwdriver" that Bosch has, it's SUPER compact! I don't own one, I don't want more battery platforms lol... But I can definitely appreciate stuff like this, Skil has a sexy design with it tbh 👍🏽

I am going to look and buy one right now.
Great review find, I also have the Skill battery packs and will be asking for this for Christmas, glad I found your channel!
Looks like a real good DIY tool with lots of great features, some good ideas that could be transferred to the professional platform
Come on Dewalt time to catch-up 🙏🏼
Looks great for woodworking

Great with a countersink drill bit! The flip to star drive
As far as I know is Skil part of Bosch.
Are the 20V accus compatible?
This thing is awesome, but it would be more awesomurrr if they added a clutch.

The drill/ screw head is awesome. Its too bad batteries aren't standardized between different manufacturers
If you have a few hex bottom bits. It takes a tenth of a second to pull out the bit and put in the Phillips head etc. lol
Cute. Though.
As a lifelong Milwaukee kid, I am super jealous of this… if they added a clutch I would absolutely run this as my dedicated component install driver👀
Does have clutch its digital 1 to 9
I have 5 of the Skil Powercore 12 tools. They are good quality tools.I use them instead of my heavier tools.
What's the longest bit that will fit in the flip mechanism stored?
A really cool feature would be for it to use any battery.. They would sell more tools guaranteed.
Pretty handy. I pre drill pilot holes frequently when I’m using screws to build stuff
Black and decker had similar tool years ago but never took off but I loved it
Loved it! A cool tool, indeed!
Well-done, Sir!
Excellent Review thank you
I’ve got a one skill tool(power hammer) and a couple of the batteries which as you mentioned make awesome usb power banks.
I bet the best part is using 12 and 20 volt batteries. Now I should glue a magnet on my drills to hold bits and screws
I'm looking forward to newer batteries running off C. It's a very high power standard for it's size.
I NEED THIS NOW!!
I already have the very similar Worx Switchdriver, but this one looks pretty cool.
gen 1 or 2? 2 is better than skil
It's not a impact drill, it's basically 2 regular small drills on one body.
It does not compete with your 20v 1/2in drill or any 20v impact drill for power but can do a lot for its size.
NICE LIKE I HAVE 3 SKIL POWER CORE BATTERIES one 2.5 and two 5 AMP and it's BRUSHLESS TOO
That's a very cool tool. Skil has some very different tools that some brands don't even have. Nice to have a drill and a impact in one! Never seen that before. Wish ryobi would make one know. Do a shop tour? Thank you.
DId they update their batteries? I have some 12 V Skil stuff, but the batteries dont have a C port.
Nice tool and good video
Like to hang these on my belt. Any hanger clips? I saw a brass threaded hole in the side...
Do they sell it at Ikea stores ?
Feels like it will do a good job paired with ikea furniture
I was hoping from the thumbnail that it locked in the right angle position. *THAT* would really be a game changing feature.
how front heavy is that thing?
If you make money using any tool then it's a pro tool.
I agree
I have the workz nitro drill that does the same thing. Won’t be switching to this one though as the button to switch between drills is poorly located.
Have you seen the new hyper tough 20v batteries that have the usb ports on them?
Man, I would 100% keep a countersink bit on one side. So handy!
Love what Skil is doing
Can you flip the chuck 90 deg out and drill in tight places? That would be cool.
Cool tool💪👑 we need this in Europe
Cool concept. They need to move the rotate button so you can push it with your trigger finger.
Right? Like, make the swapping possible one-handed. Two tools is faster and simpler for this purpose because of that.

never used that tool but the Worx Switchdriver is great tool.
That's phenomenal idea
Tapcon flipbit holder pro you can use in any drill and it works better
I need Ryobi to make one of those. That thing is sweet!
Its crazy that usb c slow charging isnt on more brand batteries so that technicians can charge batteries off the 12 v system in our trucks
If it came with a set of heads to drive fasteners at different offsets it'd be a good competitor to the M12 Installation Driver or Bosch Chamelon.
Man I was really hoping da drill side was a chuck damn well can’t have it all
Will it work with the older style Skil 12v and 20v? I have a bunch of them that I got with my other tools.
My driver has an adjustable torque clutch to keep from breaking fasteners. This tool appears to be lacking the adjustable torque setting.
Wait what, you can use 12v and 20 volt on this Frankenstein? That’s awesome!
worx can use 20 40 n 80v
Cool! Makes you think if it's reeeally that much more convenient than have a quick release and swapping on the fly. But if you were up on a stool or ladder, possibly wearing gloves? Oh yeah lol

Never heard of skil, but I love this idea would be great for me on a daily base's, how would you compare skil to ryobi?
That is a sweet tool
I wish it had an impact setting for the driver
So ut charges the phone
Fast or superfast?
Crazy super fast
@ToolReviewZone so it actually charges the phone at superfast pace? Wow

Another option would be something like a Dewalt drill flip drive kit for around 16 bucks.
_When_ RYOBI introduces their version, they should put a 3 jaw chuck on one side.
