A cordless drill is essential to a well-rounded toolkit, whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned DIY craftsman. Its simple design and versatility make it perfect for boring holes and driving screws for jobs like hanging shelves and putting together furniture. It can also help you tackle unexpected repairs, which can often pop up this time of year when the temperature drops. If you need a cordless drill, Lowe’s is offering 24 percent off its house-brand Kobalt XTR 24-volt, ?-inch brushless cordless model. And this being a BOGO deal, you also get another tool up to $149 in value.

Kobalt’s cordless drill features a powerful brushless motor that delivers a respectable 1,200 inch-pounds of torque. When drilling through dense material, the drill’s anti-kickback feature will keep you in control, stifling sudden twists if the fastener or bit hits a particularly tough spot.

Meanwhile, the drill features a two-speed (low and high) gearbox for different tasks and a variable speed trigger for greater control. That trigger allows you to gradually increase or decrease the drill’s speed to ease into delicate drilling. The 24-position clutch makes it easy for you to find the ideal amount of torque for every project, from turning a screw one rotation to driving it flush without stripping the head. The features helps prevent over-torquing or under-driving.

The drill also has a built-in LED to illuminate what your working on, and its compact design means you can work in tight spaces. Your purchase comes with a 24-volt, 4.0-amp-hour battery (and charger) that can work with other 24-volt Max power tools in Kobalt’s lineup.

And like we mentioned, Lowe’s will throw in a free tool of up to $149 in value. The stipulation is you need to pick from one of three eligible items: Kobalt 24-volt Max 7 1?4-inch cordless circular saw, Kobalt 24-volt Max variable-speed cordless reciprocating saw, or a two-pack of 24-volt, 4.0-amp-hour batteries.
