I have a 1/2 inch master force 20 volt flex power brushless hammer drill and it keeps stopping. What is wrong with it.

Just double-checked the link and it seems to be working now. Maybe it was a temporary glitch? It looks like Menards has Flexpower in the description of what comes in the kit, but the model they reference is a Boost battery.

The link didn't work, but I found it on menards.com using the SKU: 2410472. However, it comes with the FlexPower battery. The 2.5Ah Boost battery is $69.00 extra.

Thanks a lot (not!) for telling me that Menards now carries the oil impulse drive! Now I have to find a reason to justify it. Seriously, though, I have quite a few Masterforce tools and find them to be a good value for a DIY-er like myself.
Regarding the comparison with the Ryobi, it appears that the Masterforce’s brushless motor would be an advantage over the Ryobi QuietStrike

You mentioned its “impulse” mode, and that got me thinking… Can we see a review of the Masterforce oil impulse impact driver? I have to think it’s a step below the M12/M18 Surges and Makita XST01Z, but how does it fare against the Ryobi QUIETSTRIKE?

At $89 for the bare tool, I have been on the fence about trying one out for some time now.
