With its excellent soft trigger you can actually with practice bring the light ON without engaging the drill to move. ) No-load speed 0-450/0-1450 (RPM) horrible customer support o. k. product I really wanted to love this drill. I highly recommend the drill the batteries are reliable and charge quick and it has plenty of power.
