Porter-Cable 9887QP Network 19.2 Volt Quad Pack by Porter-Cable
Product DetailsManufacturer: Porter-Cable Model: 9887QP Accessories:
Description of Porter-Cable 9887QP Network 19.2 Volt Quad PackA great combination for the serious do-it-yourselfer or professional, Porter-Cable's 19.2-volt Quad Pack combo kit comes with four of the most popular and useful portable tools in the Porter-Cable line. First, as with many of the Porter-Cable combo kits, this one comes with two ni-cad rechargeable batteries and a diagnostic charger with an LED warning system. The batteries are interchangeable so they'll work with other Porter-Cable 19.2-volt tools. Each charges in less then an hour and provides plenty of run time for most uses. The batteries have a unique slide-on loading system in the base of each tool that makes battery attachment extremely tight and almost impervious to wear. The 19.2-volt hammer drill has a 1/2-inch keyless chuck that's easy to adjust and reacts quickly to the trigger. It offers 390 inch-pounds of maximum torque, a 20-position clutch, and a two-speed gearbox that does up to 1,500 rotations per minute and 19,500 beats per minute. This is plenty of power for any home-based project, and generally plenty of power for professionals. It's relatively lightweight and, in our opinion, as solid as any drill/driver we've used. The Saw Boss 19.2-volt cordless circular saw uses a 6-inch blade, turns up to 3,250 rpm, and makes up to 100 crosscuts on two-by-four material on a single charge. There's an easy-to-adjust guide plate for both bevel and depth of cut. The 19.2-volt Tiger Saw offers a Quik-Change blade clamp, a 1-inch stroke, and variable speed up to 2,900 strokes per minute. The grips are well designed and easy to hold. We were impressed with the solid feel and smooth cut of the Saw Boss and Tiger Saw, and quickly found ourselves reaching for these cordless tools more often than their corded counterparts. Finally, the flashlight offers a 110-degree swiveling head and heavy-duty xenon bulb and comes with an extra bulb. --Jonathon Tudor
Tools and Hardware Reviews of Porter-Cable 9887QP Network 19.2 Volt Quad PackCustomer Review: A rancher's boon Summary: 5 Stars
More often than not, a 110VAC outlet will be unavailable where the work is on a ranch. I have owned AEG and Makita battery powered tools. When this Porter Cable set went on sale, I figured it was time to give it a go.
For serious work, I'll grab the Milwaukee walking saw, hammer drill, etc. and toil on a project within reach of an extension cord. Repairing a feed bin or setting H's and fence corners, this Porter-Cable kit fits the bill perfectly.
Two years have passed since that day of purchase and I am still a satisfied customer. Considering the hours of useage, one of the batteries does take quite some time to recharge.
Shopping for powercells may induce stickershock. It appears all are seemingly over costly; but for the convenience, I'm still hooked. Milwaukee and Porter-Cable remain my first choices in powertools with Makita in third place.
