About 3 years ago I bought a clam adapter attachment for my makita 18 v drill. I use a 6 inch auger. I love it. I go to Strawberry (thick thick ice) and punch holes through the ice quickly and with no problem. I almost always get questions (or at the least odd looks) from nearby ice fishers, and they are impressed. I also have never needed to use my back up battery. Best $70 bucks I have spent on fishing gear in a while. Here is a link.
look up clam ice auger conversion kit on Amazon.
I started with an attachment similar to one of the pics above, bit this set up is much more stable and won't wrench your wrist when the auger gets caught up on the ice. I would highly recommend it.
