I won't attest for "professional" use but for you above average home-owner (or Ranch hand) these drills are great. Received this combo last week and started putting it to work on misc jobs around the farm. Finally decided to put the drills to the test putting a 2x8 border around a small horse arena. Both drills have loads of power and could easily drill 3.5" screws through the 2x8s and into the heavy creosote (i.e. dense, hard) posts. Even with the "save" mode the drills had no trouble and care had to be used to ensure the screws weren't pulled through the 2x8s (no pre-drilling needed). Battery life is excellent and both drills lasted a full day (5-6 hours) of continuous use with no noticeable loss of power. Only advice is to get a kit with a quick-change bit for the larger drill but these drills are perfect for medium to heavy use. The only downside is the cordless charger is a bit on the loud side (it has a fan to cool the batteries when they charge) but it's worth the occasional noise considering how long the batteries last and the quick charge time (hasn't taken more than 30 mins to fully charge the batteries).
