Physical & Build
The HP333D is the entry-level 12V Max CXT brushed combi, a compact 30Nm drill at 0.89kg bare for light drilling and driving. It is brushed rather than brushless, giving up some runtime. We rate it a simple entry to the CXT system; for better runtime and a touch more power, the brushless HP332D is the upgrade.
