The Total TDLI228120 Cordless Drill operates as a screwdriver machine and light-duty drill for wood or plastic. A 12V Li-ion battery supplies power to reach a 20Nm maximum torque limit. This updated model replaces the TDLI1211, adding a 2-speed mechanical gear and increasing the top speed to 1250 rpm.
Key Features
- 18+1 Torque Settings: Mechanical clutch dial provides 19 distinct resistance levels. Lower settings stop the motor before screws strip soft wood.
- 2-Speed Mechanical Gear: Shift between 0-350 rpm and 0-1250 rpm ranges. Use high speed for wood and low speed for driving fasteners.
- Integrated LED Light: Trigger-activated bulb illuminates the specific drill point. This helps visibility in dark corners or during sudden load shedding.
- 10mm Keyless Chuck: Three-jaw clamp accepts round or hex shank bits. Swap accessories by hand without using a separate chuck key.
- Spindle Lock System: Internal mechanism prevents the drill shaft from spinning. Tighten the chuck with one hand to keep bits from slipping.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Total TDLI228120 effective for drilling metal?
The 1250 rpm high-speed setting bores through thin aluminum and light sheet metal. It lacks the impact power required for thick steel or concrete walls.
How does the 2-speed gear system work?
A slide switch on top of the housing toggles between low and high rpm ranges. Gear one provides high torque for screws, while gear two provides speed for drilling.
