How can I find a cordless drill with a chuck that will hold? Most do not hold well?

Lawrence I asked:


The old chuck wrench method worked well but all the new drill chucks are hand tightened and do not hold well. Bits and drills fall out or won’t turn when you try to drill a hole.

    Dewalt that has a new model chuck that is awesome. It does hand tighten but has a ratcheting motion.

    I’ve used De-Walt, Porter-Cable, Bosch and Ryobi and never found this problem with any of them.
