I purchased the 6 Nils Hand Auger. It works amazing well- we drilled through approximately 18 of ice in 15 seconds. When I first ordered I debated about ordering the adapter for the cordless drill- theres no need. This auger works so well, Ill never buy a power auger. The only consideration you should have is regarding tip-ups: if youre using a lot of tip-ups, I would recommend the 8 auger. My friend likes using tip-ups and the 6 hole is a little small, but workable. Other than that I cannot say enough good things about this product. I was the guy that always had to borrow someones gas auger because I thought that was the only effective way to drill through the ice. No longer is that the case! For those younger guys out there that just want to ice fish- save your money, buy a Nils hand auger like your Grandfather would- put what you save towards a vexilar- youll be waaay ahead! Brandon
