I bought two of them last year and love em.

I hate extensions with the hex screws that always get lost, stripped, and/or full of wood.

I wish they had these when I did alot of new construction.

I needed to reach up into a 2x4 space about 36" and drill a 1.5" hole. I used two of those 18" extensions and the self feed bit. Worked great.

Where the extension couples. What is the smallest size hole will it follow through?

Looks like about 3/4 but I have not measured it.

I would say about 1''- 1 1/8.

I'm going to check those out. I have a few of the old style extensions and I think they're both missing one set screw. Add that to me having to carry around an allen wrench to change bits. These look pretty cool.

They are impact rated. Very well built. You wont be disappointed.

These are awesome.

I use 1 6" and 1 12" and they are waaaaayyy better than the old style. When the bit locks in, it's IN and much less wobble than the old style too.
