The D10VH's powerful single-phase motor runs off of a standard 120-volt power supply and delivers 108.1 in./lbs. of maximum torque for tough high-speed applications. The variable-speed trigger controls the speed of the drill, which means you'll be in complete control at all times.
Located on the speed trigger is the speed-control dial, which gives you a quick and easy way to make adjustments. Simply turn the dial clockwise for higher speeds or counterclockwise for slower speeds. For continuous drilling, use the stopper feature to maintain the speed of the drill without the need to pull the trigger.
The D10VH has a drilling capacity of one inch through wood and 3/8 inch through steel.
Designed to Reduce Fatigue and Improve Control
Hitachi designed the D10VH to be both ergonomic and comfortable to use. The form-fit palm grip ensures comfort during extended operation, reduces vibration, and makes for easy one-handed use.
All of the controls--speed trigger, speed dial, safety, and stopper--are strategically located for easy one-handed operation. And weighing just 3.1 pounds, the D10VH is easy to maneuver around the jobsite.
Keyless Chuck for Tool-Free Bit Changes
The 3/8-inch keyless chuck allows for quick and easy bit changes without tools. For maximum versatility, the D10VH can switch between a twist bit, flat spade bit, and auger bit within seconds.
Optional Accessories Available
The D10VH can be upgraded with an optional side handle (not included), which can be mounted on either side of the tool for right- or left-handed operation. Additionally, an optional hook (not included) can be mounted on the top or side of the drill for clipping the drill to a belt loop or for hanging on floor joists, ladders, or brackets when not in use.

Tools and Hardware Reviews of Hitachi D10VH 6 amp 3/8-Inch Drill with Keyless Chuck
Customer Review: Great drill but there might be one you'll like more
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this drill so that I would have a nice, solid, powerful electric drill to augment my somewhat low-end but very useful cordless. I'm very happy with this drill. One of my favorite things, and something I hadn't thought about, is the quality of the keyless chuck. One revolution of the chuck just barely moves the three bit grips. So compared to my other drill it takes many more twists to go from fully open to fully closed. But the resulting grip on the bit is much tighter than I get with my other drill that requires fewer twists. I think that's fantastic to have that kind of tightening power on the bits.
The balance and heft of the unit are perfect for me. It's billed as a lightweight unit and it is fairly light (but not too light).
So while I like the Hitachi a lot and can recommend it, there is one that seems to have a couple of unique features for about the same price. If you're in the market for this caliber of drill you should also look at the Dewalt D21008K. Its specs are very similar to the Hitachi but it has two nice features. A belt hook and two built-in levels (horizontal and vertical). It gets good reviews and I think if I had to do it over again I would go with the Dewalt instead, but only because of those two features mentioned.
