About TorquePick
An independent, spec-based guide to cordless drills, impact drivers and wrenches, and cordless saws.
TorquePick is published by Informative Buy, a small independent business run by Gerardo Galicia in Venice, California. We built it because cordless tools are still sold on brochure torque claims, while the consistently published figures — official no-load speed, official tool weight, official platform voltage and official brushless-motor listings — sit on the maker product page. Official maximum torque is shown as a fact when that official page publishes it, and it is not scored, because some official pages omit a torque specification. Here, every product is compared on official published fields, scored with a formula printed on the page, and linked back to its sources.
Today the site covers 3 categories, 165 products and 29 head-to-head comparisons of official cordless drills and hammer drills, official impact drivers and wrenches, and official cordless saws.
How we work
- Official maker pages first. Scored specs come from official Milwaukee, DeWalt and Makita product pages. Each product links the official page we used.
- Blanks stay blank. If the official specification does not list a figure we show "Not listed" and score it at the category minimum. We do not fill gaps from retailer listings. Autofocus motor type and weather sealing are often described only in marketing copy, and we say so instead of inventing a scored field.
- Finish variants share a page. Official Special Edition or alternative finishes with identical scored fields are consolidated onto one page.
- Safety notes are specific. Wear eye protection, remove the battery pack before changing bits or blades, and recycle lithium-ion packs through a certified battery or e-waste program.
TorquePick participates in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. When you buy through a "Check price" button, Amazon may pay us a commission at no extra cost to you. Commissions never change the order of a ranking, and no brand can pay for placement. Details are in our affiliate disclosure.
Makers update specification pages. If you spot an outdated figure, a broken source or a product we should add, please tell us and we'll fix it.
