Our Best Starter Kit: two batteries, 25 bits, and a case for around ₱1,200, as long as you ignore the listing's 12V, 18V and 36V voltage claims.
- Price: ₱1,200 as of Jul 30, 2026
- Biggest pro: Two batteries in the box, so one charges while you work
- Main catch: The same drill is listed as 12V, 18V and 36V, so the voltage claim is marketing

Pros and cons
✓ Pros
- Two batteries in the box, so one charges while you work
- 25 bits and a case included, a complete starter set for one price
- 0.92kg without the battery, light enough for overhead work
- 2-speed gearbox, which most drills at this price skip
✗ Cons
- The same drill is listed as 12V, 18V and 36V, so the voltage claim is marketing
- 25Nm handles wood and drywall, but it is weak for concrete
- 10mm chuck rules out larger masonry bits
- Brushed motor and a plastic gearbox will not survive daily trade use
The KEELAT KCD005 is our Best Starter Kit: two batteries, 25 bits, a bit holder, and a case for around ₱1,200. It’s the most complete first-drill package here, with one claim you should ignore.
What do you actually get?
25Nm of torque through a 10mm chuck at 0-450 / 0-1,550 rpm, across a 2-speed gearbox that most drills this cheap skip. It weighs 0.92kg without a battery, so it’s easy to hold overhead or reach into a cabinet with.
The kit is the real story. Two batteries mean one charges while you work. Add 25 driver and drill bits, a bit holder, a charger, and a hard case, and there’s nothing else to buy. Bought separately, a spare battery and a bit set would cost close to a third of the tool.
What about the voltage claim?
Here’s the catch, and it’s worth being blunt. The same KCD005 is sold as 12V on some listings, 18V on others, and 36V on others still. A drill cannot be all three. The specs that don’t move, 25Nm and 0-450/0-1,550 rpm, are those of a 12V-class tool, so that’s how we’ve judged it.
That’s not a reason to avoid it, but it is a reason to buy it for the kit rather than the number. If a listing’s 36V badge is what sold you, you’re buying a sticker.
Is it sulit?
Around ₱1,200 as of July 30, 2026. Check the latest price on Shopee. For a household starting from zero, it’s the most tool per peso in this roundup: two batteries and a full bit set at a price where rivals give you one battery and nothing else.
The limits are honest. A brushed motor and plastic gearbox won’t take daily trade use, and KEELAT has no PH service centers, so warranty runs through the Shopee seller.
Who should buy it
Buy this if you own no drill and no bits, and you want one box that covers ordinary household jobs. It’s the right choice for a first home where the drill comes out a few times a year. See how it compares in our best cordless drills in the Philippines roundup, or browse more on our Home Improvement page. Our cordless drill buying guide explains why torque matters more than the voltage on the box.
Alternatives to consider
If a stated warranty and local dealers matter more than the extra battery, the Lotus LTDD12-30VLI 12V drill driver is our Best Budget pick at around ₱1,100 from a Philippine brand. Planning to drill concrete? Neither budget kit will do it, so look at the KEELAT KCD012 20V brushless drill at around ₱2,000 instead.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it 12V, 18V or 36V?
Treat it as a 12V-class drill. The same KCD005 appears on different listings as 12V, 18V and 36V, which tells you the number is a marketing choice, not a measurement. Its 25Nm torque and 0-450/0-1,550 rpm are what actually decide what it can do, and those match a 12V tool.
What can 25Nm handle?
Wood, drywall, plywood, and light metal: furniture, shelf brackets on wood, cabinet hinges. It has a hammer setting, but at 25Nm treat concrete as out of scope. For masonry, step up to a 55Nm-plus drill.
Why does having two batteries matter?
One charges while you use the other, so a job doesn't stop for two hours. At this price most drills ship with a single pack, and a spare usually costs a third of the tool.
Is it good enough for daily work?
No, and it isn't meant to be. The brushed motor and plastic gearbox are built for occasional household use. If you drill every day for a living, buy a trade brand with local parts support.
