12 Volt Power Tools

by admin on November 24, 2009

Which Ones are the Best for Women DIY Enthusiasts – 12 Volt Power Tools or 18 Volt?

It used to be that if you heard the whine and clatter of a power tool in your neighborhood you would casually picture in your head how the burly dad next door was at it again, jeans riding down his behind, saying something like, “ Now man it up, son, and pick up that two-by-four.”

It just so happens now though that those words could float over in a woman’s voice just as likely as a man’s. More women are taking part in the work force and do-it-yourself projects. Women are the new flag-bearers of the home-improvement movement, even if the dialogue is likely to come off a touch more politically correct now. And 12 volt power tools are what are making all this possible.

A simple look around the Internet can vouch for this; power tool manufacturers all over are trying to position themselves as the people every woman do-it-yourselfer needs to turn to, with the range that has the lightest tools, the prettiest tools, and the tools that are the easiest and quietest to use. Women are by no means less capable with their hands than men; but women do have less physical strength, smaller hands and are less tall.

The market for cordless power tools has traditionally been all about more power and more brute force, styling, weight and size be damned. Manufacturers have answered the call for more power with larger tools, tools with 24 and 32 volt power supplies and battery packs that could run a small car (why, some 18 V drills can weigh as much as 7 pounds!). Manufacturers today are having to rethink their philosophies as they are called on to make smaller precision power tools without sacrificing on weight or size. As it turns out 12 volt power tools are the answer.

Panasonic, Makita, Hitachi and Porter Cable have some pretty nifty choices in the 12 volt power tools range today. Ergonomics have been Makita’s strong suite for a while now; for instance, brands like Hitachi and DeWalt have a regular sliding-panel mechanism for battery replacement; Makita uses a single button that pops out the spring-loaded battery for replacement. But some women may find that the typical range of 12 volt power tools is a bit lacking in the power they need, as easy to use as they are. Ergonomics can become an even more important issue when there is the added weight of an extra-powerful tool to deal with.

The thing with weight in 12 volt power tools or their 18 volt cousins is that a proper balance or distribution of weight can often and make a tool much easier to handle than their weight per se would suggest. When you go out and buy a power tool, you need to hold it in your hand and actually give it a turn. If the weight seems evenly balanced and it allows the tool to fit easily in your grip without requiring a tight grasp on the handle to keep it upright, you have your tool.

For women users today with battery technology where it is, 12 volt power tools seem to be where all the action is. But you could get away conceivably, with choosing 18 volt power tools too. Lithium Ion batteries these days are much lighter than the traditional Nickel Cadmium and Nickel Metal Hydride models; if you can find more powerful tools with lighter batteries, it should be just the ticket.
