I recently purchased the right angle drill and I am quite underwhelmed by the lack of power.

I've received no response from Milwaukee yet.

I'm wondering is this the drill or is something wrong.

It has less power than my little 12V DeWalt drill.

If you are referring to #2615-20, it is only spec'd at 125 in-lbs of torque, and max 1500 RPM, with a 3/8" chuck. Light weight and extremely close quarters capability are its primary features, not power capacity. The limitations of putting the motor armature in the hand grip are such that it will not be very powerful.

What is the format of the 12V dewalt you are comparing it to? Is it a similar format, size and weight right angle drill?

What do you want the drill to do?

I've got two of them and they work great! Perfect for situations requiring close-quarters operation.
