A quick google search for "camper jack drill adapter" results in several good links. Adventure RV has them for pretty much any camper jack brand and style.
For the first few years I hand cranked my jacks once they touched down because I thought my cheap 18V Ryobi drill was straining too much, and I didn't want to twist/rack the camper too much. This fall at unloading time, I basically said (expletive) it, and ran the camper up with the drill. Both drill and camper survived fine. The key is to keep going from jack to jack and raising each one in a short burst, about 10-15 revolutions of the drill.
The big bonus? No busted knuckles this year from that %$#@ right rear jack that has the crank facing the wrong way.
Never had a problem with the 18v Ryobi with the 2 speed.
I got a Ryobi saw with the Li batt and when used on the drill works fine,
usually a two batt job:)
