Quality, thanks mateLink to FFX DHR 242Z Makita DHR242Z 18V SDS Plus Brushless Rotary Hammer Drill Bare Unit - https://www.ffx.co.uk/product/Get/Makita-Dhr242Z-0088381654326-18V-Sds-Plus-Brushless-Rotary-Hammer-Drill-Bare-Unit scroll down for batteries and chargers.
mine are kinetically powered anyway.A lot of tool manufacturers sell battery poweredheated (and cooled) jackets. Maybe there's a market for powered Y fronts?
Ive had the previous iteration of that drill for 5 years and it's been bulletproof.In short, unless you want to start out with several versions of a tools that all do the same job, then middle of the road is probably the best option (something like Makita DHR242). While cordless tools are still generally heavier than their corded counterparts, the difference is not great and (for most jobs) the convenience far outweighs any additional weight.
If a little extra weight is a big problem, it's often easier to eat a few more weetabix than find a convenient source of power.
Plus 1 for the Marcrist. Makes core drilling a lot safer and a lot easier.Please Please don't core with a standard SDS drill you will eventually end up with a broken wrist, please use a SDS drill with a clutch so when it jambs it does not turn your wrist over and break it, something like this: Marcrist DDM150-1S/110V UK 1900W Electric Diamond Core Drill
Hi mate, not planning on core drilling with this sds normally use the dewalt core drill with a clutch on it.Please Please don't core with a standard SDS drill you will eventually end up with a broken wrist, please use a SDS drill with a clutch so when it jambs it does not turn your wrist over and break it, something like this: Marcrist DDM150-1S/110V UK 1900W Electric Diamond Core Drill
I usually buy my stuff thru amazon, sometimes used on ebayHey everyone, im an apprentice looking for the best website for tools and battery tools, looking to get a makita sds soon so any help is massively appreciated!
Sounds good mate hopefully mine last me that long!I would vouch for Makita gear any time, bought a DHR242 about 5 year ago great tool to add to the existing cordless drills which are 8 to 9 year old now and going strong, wee cordless grinder Makita DGA452Z 18 V is one of the handiest tools I have (probably the most dangerous also to be fair). Took a chance and got an extra 2 x 3.0 Ah replacement batteries off amazon for round £25 (not real Makita they are +£) back in 2016 and can only tell the difference between batteries cause i engraved the date.
I have a Makita 6096D drill which is brilliant for light work as it is so light (1.3kg) and easy to use, only issue is now (10 years+ on) the two battery packs are tired and hold limited charge.
only makita i have is a 110V SDS. comes out when there's a lot to do. last year, on one job, did over 100 32mm holes in 4" joists using a SDS auger bit on it. no cordless could come close.
