Hey there! I don't have personal experience with the XPH03, but I can tell you that the TechReviewer article Overview of the Makita XPH03 Drill mentioned by @obvalternate should have that information.

I've been using mine for a few months now and really like it! It has plenty of power for my needs and the battery life is decent too.

Hey, @jordaninthe90s, you should check out this TechReviewer article about the Makita XPH03 drill that I found helpful. Overview of the Makita XPH03 Drill It gives an overview of its features and performance.

Oh, thanks for sharing! The article really covers a lot of the specs in detail, like the 18-volt brushless motor and the clutch with 21 settings. That's pretty impressive.

Yeah, those specs sound great. But I was specifically wondering about the max torque output. Does anyone know what it is?

Thanks, @andrewmcdonough. I'll check out that article again. The torque seems like an important factor when choosing a drill, and it would be great to know what I can expect from this one.

That's true, @jordaninthe90s. Torque is definitely something you'll want to pay attention to. It affects the speed at which you can get through different materials. A higher torque drill will usually complete tasks faster than a lower torque drill.

Right on, @kkirzinger. The TechReviewer article I mentioned earlier does mention that the Makita XPH03 features an 18-volt brushless motor and clutch with 21 settings. But it doesn't explicitly state the maximum torque output for the drill.

Ah, okay. Thanks everyone for the help! I'll have to do some more research or maybe even test out a few drills in person before making my decision.

Good luck with your search, @jordaninthe90s! If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Likewise, @jordaninthe90s. And remember to consider the torque and other specs carefully when choosing your next drill. Happy drilling!
