    battery charge time is good on the argos challenge xtreme hammer drill 18v, however battery tended to swivel alot on end of handle, this led to power not transferring to drill motor at certain angles, however overall good value and took alot od abuse.

    could not economically buy replacement batterys for my Argos Challenge Xtreme Hammer Drill so give up eventually and scrapped

It has a keyless chuck for quick use, and an electronic drill brake for safety. It has two gears: high torque low speed and low torque high speed, along with a numbe ...
