Battery Drill Ice Auger Set Up

[tlombardozzi]

Wondering if there are suggested set ups for a battery drill and auger combo that works best for hole drilling?  We are getting tired of the gas powered units.

 

Thanks in advance.

Milwaukee Fuel M18 Hammer drill with 5AH battery - that will turn most drill augers. (you don't use the hammer setting) Have used a few different ones but the KDrill is nice - 7.5" unit is closer to 8" and cuts through junk ice and clear ice no problem - can also cut overlapping holes with it.

Eskimo 8” with center point. You would be surprised how much bigger an 8” hole is compared to 7.5”. Dewalt big drill with side handle and 5ah battery. this has worked well for me for a bunch of years and wont go back to gas. 
 

I had dewalt batteries before so i stuck with dewalt.
