Is 12 volts good for a drill?
Thanks to lithium-ion technology, today's 12-volt drills and impact drivers perform a lot like yesterday's 18-volt tools. Then an 18-volt platform might be better suited for the job. For many users, however, that 12-volt power tool gives you plenty of power for most of the work you might toss at it.
