18volt combi drill & impact driver which one ?

[cdavies33]

I've got the Dewalt XR range aswell now, No Faults what so ever. Great kit. don't know about all this going down hill stuff is about.

Used to have all the makita 18v li-ion gear, but they can ram it. after my 5th battery went faulty, I'm not buying it anymore.

Which one star? There was a design flaw they have fixed now. Had same batteries a year and there fine

Like many on here I've been through many different makes and currently on Makita 18 volt, batteries fit many items.
i went hitachi for a while which was ok BUT, if it goes wrong it has to go back to the factory, mine was away for 2 weeks whereas Makita is mended at your local dealers
i was on dewalt years ago and hopefully it has improved as we found it pretty bad

[any body can tell me what is the best way to test a catering trailor with a genorator on

Hilti all the way - yes, it's more expensive, but the 2 years free servicing is well worth the additional expense. 22 volt stuff is fantastic.

Dewalt pack here, Make you get 4ah and the drill with the metal chuck (The professional rage)


MAKITA vs. DEWALT - YouTube

New Makita: 15seconds per hole / 21 done
Dewalt: 13seconds per hole / 23 done


Comes in a proper hard case, you can also get a tool box of the same nature and clip them together so you have a free hand

has anyone used the bosch gsb18ve2?? it looks good, but its not cheap either... but i need an 18v drill and want something decent..

.. but i need an 18v drill and want something decent..

Yeah, same. Can't decide between the Makita 458 or 459 ......Higher torque versus brushless and lighter weight.

 

[ultinator]

there should be a poll for the best brands, although there is quite a broad range of variables

 

[i=p/u]

There is poll somewhere on this site, try a search...

 

[ultinator]

how do i search? is there a poll for that?

just ignore me actually....

I've recently gone for a three pack milwaukee m18 set
Sds 4amp
Brushless combi percussion drill 3amp
And impact 2amp
Plus a spare 3amp
Charger toolbag and bit-set.

I bought the kit as I has a big crush on the sds, tried it at a tool test day a C. E. F.
but I got to be honest, I've been most impressed by the brushless combi, it's got a fair pair of testicles on it.
I shopped and shopped about, and played a few dealers against each other.
Can't say wot I paid, but I was more than happy with the price.
I've done the rounds with all makes and models. Just retired my makita 18v lion set great kit, but I had so much problems with their batteries it was disgraceful.
I run a Bosch corded sds and it's been a true warrior. Would defiantly buy another when I finally dies.
As for dewalt, I don't know much about their new kit, but I always think of carpenters lol

I bought a makita twin pack a month or so ago, its the bhp458 combi drill and the 146 impact driver came with 2x 3ah 18v batteries and a solid case, delivered for £280. I think there both awsome bits of kit and am now wanting there angle grinder to add to my collection
