This larger die grinder ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxmwiwyX3ADeryrwvcsiwLeKxme6QNQmGL runs very smoothly in use. There's virtually no vibration. Paddle switch with the safety trigger is a bit cumbersome to use, but is much safer. Grinder cannot turn on if set down on the bench.Note that this die grinder, like most others, runs at 25,000 rpm. Always use a face shield and hearing protection. If your grinding stone has any sign of chips or cracks, throw it away. At 25,000 rpm, the stone sees very high G-loads and could come apart explosively if the stone is damaged. Always run the grinder for a short time before using it to check the stone.This tool is heavier than some but very well made.Recommended.
Spent my Saturday with the guys from OTT. Great videos as always, dudes!
Awesome review guys! No one in the States is doing it as well as the boys from “down under”! Super comprehensive test and objective comments and conclusions. Much appreciated!!
[Dwain] Cheer Cary :) appreciate the support.
Not my line of business, but as usual, a super good, comprehensive, clear and informative video ! Thanks guys !
[Dwain] cheers jean-marc ;)
Great video guys! Thx for being so thorough!
Mike and Dwain come through with another great video, thanks mates!!!
J Glassey Thanks John 👌🏻 lots of work and Dwain’s computer brilliance lol 👊🏻
I really appreciate you guys doing the reviews - I have learnt a lot
released 2013?
Těžko říct takhle z hlavy
Very nice comparison! Extremely helpful, thanks guys!
cheers :D
great review, thank you guys! Someone needs to practice holding those sds straight here :D
Erik Tontsch Yep pretty sure I had a very off day :/ (mike)
Thanks very much guys great video.
Great video guys and well explained. Thanks for your video well made.
Basilio Montalto Cheers mate.👍🏼
Something I love about the hilti stuff is how everything is flush and refined. The plastic seamlessly blends into the rubber for handles and whatnot. Gets rid of that sorta cheap feel because everything has excessive overmoulding and random curves and stuff
[Dwain] yeah it does feel very precise.
RagingOatmeal.. You are absolutely correct.
Haha I agree 100% but seams like something you learnt from AVE I know I did
Great test!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
This must be hell to do ! Appreciate the review 👍
[Dwain] thanks Scott, it wasn't 100% fun ;)
great video. exelent review 👍
Nice one boys 👌
For heavy duty work I'd go with the Hilti though (if you need cordless access), I have a corded "non-brand" SDS drill with like 3J - and it drills holes in iron reinforced concrete like into butter, with it's brushed motor though. Liked the review nonetheless! Great work guys.
Hey guys!
Great video, monster tools lol
Hope your hands are just fine hahaha
Interesting results though, keep them coming.
Thanks for sharing!
Cheers
[Dwain] Thanks Ben! Appreciate the support.
Ain't nothing like a true blue Aussie review, great job fellas. The
Cheer Reg!
Hard to beat HILTI on anything other than cost, right across the board.
They’ve always had the best SDS around for years
Both dewalt and milwaukee overtake hilti on many tools now. Drop saw and reciprocating saw especially
@@rezendogmorales3747 They do tend to specialize in hand drilling and rock breaking tools though. 🙂
@navnig yes but you said anything. I'd say they are only better in maybe rotary hammer drills. Because core drilling milwaukee is slowly taking over.
What a great video thank you
Our pleasure!
Great review guys. As primarily a Makita owner I was a little depressed with their performance until I saw the difference in skin price! I just have the single 18v Makita hammer and it works fine for what I do. (very occasional tile chipping or lino removal)
It would be nice if all makes used the same batteries so we could pick and choose between manufacturers for different tools but I dont think thats ever going to happen!
[Dwain] Cheers AussieGuy. That'll never happen, agreed.
@@OZToolTalkThat particularly happened. NEW hitachi (hikoki) metabo mafell collomix and some other German tool manufacturers now use the same battery platform. Hope they would poach other to their club.
@@OZToolTalk oh, ridgid vs AEG also have same platform.
Really enjoy your vid's. Helped me make up my mind on the DeWalt Plus, do a lot of domestic and will come in handy. Greets from Ireland..
I use the dewalt dch333, i love it, absolutely rips through 10mm holes, maybe even faster than some corded ones. Its super comfy, and even doing 20mm holes for rebar, it is pretty quick
It's a beast
Oz Tool Talk yeah mate, especially for its size.
Only problem is that everyone else wants to use it
Love the video, would love to see a 2022 update as well
maybe some time :)
I own a newer version of the makita and i have to say they improved a bunch 👍
Anti-vibration and brushless at 36 Volt has some real power and if im not mistaken it can handel 32mm drills.
Maybe you can find one of the newer Versions for a retest ?
Thanks!
Yessss!! finaly
I upgraded my older corded Bosch to the new 60v sdsmax(USA version) DeWalt. Both my older Bosch and new dewalt lack the depth gauge which I really could use. Does anyone know why larger combination hammers seem not to have a depth gauge?
Bosch for me. DeWalt is the most powerful, but I think Bosch is more precise and durable. My 19 year old Bosch GBH24 VRE is still going strong, runs as good as new! It's been through a lot of crap, from smoking, to being red hot and it just doesn't want to die. My only issue is its batteries. We are down to 1 and it's starting to die out, it's been in this stage for quite a while, so I hope to source some genuine ones second hand.
I too place a lot of trust in an SDS with a Bosch logo on the side [Dwain]
Bonjour je suis à la recherche d’un perforateur burineur en 18v je me pose la question sur deux modèles le Metabo kHa 18v et Dewalt sds plus 18v je précise que je possède déjà du matériel Metabo 18v et que j’ai trois batteries 4ah 4ah et 5.2ah que me conseillez vous ? Merci et super vidéo
I’ve tried out most all brands threw out the years an I’ve found Dewalt to be my tool brand for pretty much everything now. An this video is just one example why.
Ditto
If you are happy with the power tools you use that is what matters, over fourty years working in construction I have seen all brands on site, only in heavy duty applications does it really matter what brand you use, in less demanding use all mainstream brands will do a good job.
What do you think of the 36v hikoki SDS + ( DH36DPA) and the big brother SDS MAX (DH36DMA). Where do you reckon they will score in your list.
haven't used them sorry
I do like that review
cheers Adam!
Hi guys are you doing the review of the new bosch 12v router and planner?
+Adam Ryan possibly, we haven’t heard word of them in Aus yet 👍
Great comparison again Dwain and Mike! Makes me wish that the mitre 10 I work at had more than the rockwell and corded dewalt sds units. I get a lot of people coming in trying to decide on a drill or new impact. Often, I refer them to come and check out your comparisons to help make their decision, so I can add this one to the list as well. Thanks!
[Dwain] thanks for the support mate!
I'm not sure if the Milwaukee M28 FUEL 1-1/8" rotary hammer was out then. But I would like to have seen it in this test since it it is a 28 volt
What do you think of bosch 2020, is it good, or you recommend another brand
Bosch make great tools :D
What also important is that with dewalt you only use one battery what also is compatible with other 18v machines
When I think of concrete the 3 tools I think of are Dewalt, Hilti and Bosch
I think Hilti, Hilti and Hilti
Hilti SDS Max drills are made in Austria, thats at least what it say's on the machine
Jack Braddell actually they won’t mention it but the origin of the tool varies based on the model but we’ll never know exactly what and where unless you know someone that works for them
Hi guys, fantastic video and work by both of ya. Thanks for this.
Little target for for 2018. Clip on microphones for ya both. It make a massive difference as opposed to the audio from the camera a meter or 2 away from you.
[Ryan] thanks mate. yep we agree. should have mounted the shotgun mic above us at a minimum. we ended up with the camera a fair way back due to the width of the shot :(
Camera and video quality is top notch though as always!
Have you guys come across Makita's 12v/10.8v (depending on what region) tools yet. There is a kit sold by amazon here in the UK directly for £125 which is about $210 AUS and is very highly rated by (i'm imagining) DIY users:
www.amazon.co.uk/Makita-CLX202AJ-Impact-Driver-batteries/dp/B01AWOI406/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1511735232&sr=8-4&keywords=makita+10.8v
The weight to power ratio with value considered looks great!
[Dwain] nah we haven''t played with the Makita 12V line. It does look impressive though.
Sure does - 110nm from a 10/12v impact is fantastic. I can see this kit mopping up the market @ the price with the included charger, batteries and combi too. I have yet needed to go over a inch and a quarter in wood with my 18v DHP459 Makita and the DTD153 Impact has breezed past anything 4" and under screws in wood.
Amazon AUS is launching anytime soon - i'm surprised it's taken this long, are you guys going to getting an affiliate account setup? You sure deserve it if users are going to purchase tools you are rating highly!
Hi guys, how did you work out the runtime scores with so many different battery sizes and amp hours? Surely the only fair way was to do it based on total watt hours?
Great review 👍
We just gave the results exactly as they came. People can do some maths if they want to work out runtime per Ah, but it's not like an 18v drill driver comparison. These are the best tools, with big prices and set battery configurations.
As you sleeper has rebar how are you allowing for the those holes that hit STEEL ??
[Dwain] we know where the rebar is, and don't hit it. we had example showing where the rebar sits (and it's my cousin factory)
Thanx for that info great work and info Guys :) maybe if possible include longevity test / feed back for tools personally Iv'e used various tools over 35+ year as Industrial Electrical Fitter All the Makita I have bought are still in service including the first LIon I bought a combi drill and Battery 2003 still in use today (getting a bit worn now ) I have also bought many Dewalt Bosch and others tools and Batteries all are now dead also seen that people in the same industry seem to have replaced tools & batteries over and over on a 3-4 year cycle
You got to review makita's newish sub compact 18V BRUSHLESS DRILL DRIVER SKIN DDF484Z
Hi do you think I could drive a ground/lighting rod in to the ground with one of the dewalt drills
[Dwain] that's not something I've ever tried sorry, no idea.
If you all ever try it tag me in the video
I dont see the dch333 on the dewalt site. Any info on this would be appreciated
www.dewalt.com.au/xrflexvolt/sds-hammer-drills/
Great review guys, no surprise the hilti killed it. Shame Bosch didn't supply the new 6Ah 36v battery for this test. Would have definitely increased the run time, dewalt are on fire lately
TechBuilt Tools and Carpentry yeah wish it was available already, I nagged Bosch for it!
You should do test of new TE 60 a36 Hilti ;)
not sure why they didnt, so many better Hilti tools to have tested with not much price difference
I’m going to say this this right now I use Milwaukee tools but I have Hilti rotary hammer drills and They are the best by far
Hilti are rotary kings :)
Love my 18v dewalt gear but the hilti as the oldest and most expensive I recon will win
I called it
[Dwain] Hilti still nailing it ;)
Hilti rotary hammer-look ugly, Hilti tool for concrete work only, ONLY I LOVE DEWALT BATTERY AND TOOLS, Milwaukee, Makita and Metabo batteries ONLY with HIGH CAPACITY, NOT any need tool, WON'T buy Hilti battery and tools
@@iginiobluevest9259 A drills performance is not judged on its looks, if it was the two Dewalts would loose hands down, they are PIG ugly, Hilti is best for heavy duty site use, a lot better than my Makita sds drill!!!
Thank for the video guys ! Please get some lapel mics for your video. Don't hesitate to contact me if you want some tips. PS I have the Hilti and i love it and so do my colleagues !
[Dwain] we are gonna mount a shotgun mic above our position :) thanks Kris
Where's the Hikoki
It's the only one that can also use the AC adapter-which is the most important option for my work and why I switched out my Makita and Milwaukee
they didn't have one they wanted to put in at the time. the adapter is a great feature :)
I thought If Hilti is as good as it once was to win hands down My old TE 15 (corded) I bought SH maybe late 80s early 90s its still perfectly working even to be honest I retired for over 10 years now, as for Metabo is by far the Best drill i even had
I do love Milwaukee, but they’ve really let themselves down with this drill. If you had the smaller one (SDS+) it’d been a better drill as it’s got 4 modes and has anti vibration in the handle.
I’m surprised they didn’t use one as they did the same for DeWALT 🤔
Dewalt handily outperforms the Milwaukee in the sds plus as well. However Milwaukee has since come out with an updated version I believe.
@@jamesnm21 I think the updated version comes out may
@@jamesnm21 still it’s hard to beat them 54/60v battery’s
Ha, you actually said "feels good in the hand"
why didnt you guys do the 18v dewalt one?
noel bashford because this review was for the biggest and baddest drills on the market!
Don't mean to sound greedy, but will you guys be make a comparison video on the smaller SDS+ Hammer Drills? (18V)
[Dwain] perhaps one day, but it's not on the radar at the moment. We are about to review the new Bosch 18V unit. I'll have a reasonable idea of how it compares to the Dewalt and Milwaukee units, if you ask in the comments on that video.
cool cool
Супер тест молодцы.Теперь точно куплю Dewalt DCH 481. dewalt the best.
Why 2 model #s for makita? As far as I can tell you used the first one which is the predecessor to the second #. Second one should be a more current, more powerful unit but you didn't have that one?
[Dwain] When two models are given, its because the have different numbers in different countries.,
I am a Dewalt user but I find Milwaukee stuff formidable at sometimes. what a pity you didn't test M18CHP, I find it amazing how they managed 4.5J out of a 18V battery, for a SDS+ unit
I have the dewalt SDS plus and love it.
Looking at your price scale there. And it looks like I could buy the dewalt plus and max for less than the hilti kit.
Talk about value for money😁
Paul Dowling glad you like yours, the pricing def comes into it in a few different ways 👍🏼 (mike)
what about warranty? dewalt warranty is conditional whereas Hilti has 2 years no cost.
yep, Hilti has an amazing warranty.
When it costs twice as much, warranty doesn't mean all that much.
I wonder what the recently introduced SDS MAX HILTI TE 60-A36 (8 Joules) and DeWalt DCH773Y2 (19.4 Joules) would do. The DeWalt is at nearly half the price of the Hilti.
Half the price but 1/5 the durability. (if you just drill 2 holes per week than go with a non hilti)
Would be fair to also include the Milwaukee M18 CHPX Sds Plus Rotary Hammer. 4.5J
Dirk Olivier would be nice but we can only put so many in a comparison and can only source so many units also.(mike)
I had it was really good but sold it wish I didn't i have the Makita 36v not as good.
Can any of these be also used with 230V (110V) cord adaptor?
xmeda no they can’t
That is sad a bit. I remember that DeWalt had some adaptor for accu tools to run them also plugged. And also some chinese cheapo manufacturers do offer hybrid plug-in adaptors fot their tools. And I find that quite useful as occasional user mostly working within the reach of plug. Or for situations, that you really need to work several hours without charging. And yes, many quick chargers are able to charge the battery somehow before other is depleted, but these short cycles with high currents and overheating do significantly reduce battery capacity over time. Especially for power tools like rotary hammers this plug-in adaptor should be included.
btw. Do you plan to compare corded rotary hammers? This battery tools review is nice! And I'll be very interested to see 4-6kg corded machines also. Tools like Bosch GBH 4-32 (SDS+) DFR and GBH 5-40 DCE (SDSmax) and some comparable tools from Makita, DeWalt, Hitachi, Hilti, Milwaukee or Metabo. These are used both by small companies and homegamers for lighter drilling, chiseling through brickwalls, light concrete demolition stuff etc.. And there are no usable comparisons available around. . + maybe add some cheapo piece ($100-150) just for comparison :)
Would love to see how the hitachi compares
Actually Hitachi isn't all too bad . I had a Bosch corded at 3.1 joules before I started using corded Hitachi 3.0 joules with both using 18 mm on an old construction concrete flooring for 6 inch anchor bolts. That Hitachi kicked ass and was almost 3 times faster that was about 15 years ago
Great review, maybe say yep less tho 😂
haha YEP!
wonder how the Makita DHR 283 (brushless) or DHR400 (SDS Max) would compare to these drills
Bart Grendelman oh my goodness I’d LOVE TO KNOW TOO ! @makitaaustralia Do we want to see ?😜
Oz Tool Talk sure:)
I'm confused: This Makita is said to bear 3 Joules on Makita's website. Did they upgrade while keeping the same model number? OR did you just note the wrong number?
[Dwain] Is there still conflicting information on Makita websites? They originally said it was 3J, then altered it to 2.5J to adhere to some sort of Australian standard or something. I spoke to Makita at length about it.
I don't know if it's conflicting on Makita's website itself. But I have seen 3 Joules in all shops and at Makita's website, but you say it's only 2,5 'real' Joules but 3 'australian joules' xD
2.5J - www.makita.com.au/products/power-tools/categories/rotary-hammers-demolition/dhr264z-18vx2-mobile-26mm-sds-plus-rotary-hammer
see the note - "* Rating in accordance with EPTA 05/2009". This was the caause of the change from 3J.
Now I got it. Then They obviously still have conflicting information on their websites. They corrected the value on their australian website, but at least the German one, that I was looking at, still has the old 3 Joule on it. ( www.makita.de/produkte/akku-programm/akku-bohrhammer-dhr264zj/ )
Ridiculous, when one remembers that EPTA is for "European power tools association'.
My intention was comparing the DHR264ZJ to the DHR263ZJ, that is said to have 3 Joule, too, and the 281 and 283 which are said to have 2,8 Joule. On the australian site the 263 is said to have 2,5 Joule in the title, but 3,0 Joule in the specifications, and the 281 and 283 don't seem to exist in australia at all.
It seems like there's no stronger Makita SDSplus than the 264, but Makita's policy really isn't helpful in search for a product...I'm beginning to regret that I chose the Makita 18V system and already have some batteries and charging stations for that system.
Nice video guys! but maybe check the audio before rendering? listening with headphone on stereo and dolby many static noice fro maybe the camera amp? dont know if you use a shotgun mic? or maybe try a wireless lapel mic. Im a subscriber! anyways you got fans in holland keep it up.
WordPress Enschede Yeah thanks, We have gone a long way to sorting audio and in general now we have it sorted but to fit all these tool in screen we moved camera back. I’ll be mounting a shotgun mic above us in my workshop very soon 👍🏼 (mike)
HE if your camera is way back why not try out a wireless as i said. Then only mount transmitter on the camera. There a lot of good ones for a few buks that work very well at distance. And in videos like this you guys stand of sit down i think thats the best solutions. Here watch this video. But not mather what i will look forward to your videos. ua-cam.com/video/9f_v1RIWDTw/v-deo.html
Very good job can you guys present me one of those drill
Sure can, right after you present us a cheque :D
prefer milwaukee just cause id rather buy their other tools over dewalt or makita for battery compad so im kinda bias, but nice vid boss !
And you can get 12 ah batteries now 👍
Why did the run time 15 point ?
You shall make score for the price too?
[Dwain] the prices vary so much country to country, so we usually don't score price. The weightings are our personal feeling for the importance. As we always say, if you disagree, change the weighting yourself and see what that does to the numbers. The scoring table is presented so that you can come to your own conclusion!
Hilti is a king 😜
Me gustan esa herramienta
have you compared the DeWalt 54v Vs Milwaukee 12amp?
as in the batteries? we don't really see the point of comparing batteries without tools. nor how we would, don't really have the expertise.... [Dwain]
@@OZToolTalk I meant testing both SDS Max machines using the best batteries available.
Yup
Hilti is the best, but you have to pay dearly. I been going for DeWalt for many years now and am happy.
nice
Man I only need an SDS like once a month… but I am a wireless internet tech. We install up to 50 foot telescoping poles on roofs of clients to get them internet in the middle of nowhere where there are no other options. So if I need to drive half inch anchors into a brick chimney (and I’m talking the new age American bricks - the dark white stone bitches that a regular hammer drill can’t touch above 1/4” bits) to mount some w brackets to secure the 10 foot section of the pole then I’m absolutely screwed. Not only do I lose the install but I feel terrible for not being of greater help to the client. SDS+ is not just for people drilling concrete all day. If you have to drive anything above 3/8” anchors then you start getting into some serious trouble. Some of the brick used here is harder than concrete as it’s just cut stone
HANDS DOWN
It's HILTI all the way! Corded or Cordless
works all day w/ 4 battery change outs when using it heavily.
increidble tool
Subbed! this must have been pricy!
Albyint Good to have you SUBBED ! Companies look after us with tools most of the time now but yep it’s a fair stack of dollars !
Even the bits add up.
(Mike)
Hey guys how many people do you know with the 9ah dewalt batteries and ask if there batteries have died ? I am about to take my third one back to be replaced of the twin pack i brough so both have been replaced and a replacement one is about to go back had for 15mths
[Dwain] of dear :( I have heard a couple of reports actually.
Oz Tool Talk
Was think that might be the case due to having 26650 cells as they arnt as explored as the 18650 that should change soon as more products out there are launching on that cell type but that still means another year or 2 before you get the same cell strength as the 18650s
The 6ah have not had any problems at all i have 2 of them also and not one has failed me
Sorry they are 21700 either way still not as strong as 18650
The flaw in these tests as with others is keeping the pressure even, more powerful drills require more force behind them to reach their optimum
Elevated pressure is contraproductive with SDS technology.
Hilti very good
Hilti 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
All I know is in uk hilti is the brand hire companies invest in despite the seemingly stupid high price, never seen any other brand of these hired out
Hilti's warranty and service promises probably make a lot of sense for hire companies.
Oz Tool Talk the uk warranty is only 2 years on hilti compared to most other makes being 3 years and it’s nearly 3x the price.
When the hole is full of dust it works it harder plain and simple I guess you cant count to 5 and clear the hole consistently hard process to complete
How about the new Bosch GBH 18V-26(F)?
[Dwain] We'll be reviewing that shortly (already in testing). It is not the match of the 36V unit though.
Oz Tool Talk i own the GBH 18V 26F and you can't compare the 18 and 36V Systems. The 18V is hand to hand up to 10mm in steal concrete nearly as fast as the 36V. Smaller hoses live 8mm is even faster because its faster spinning. For a contractor drilling indoor for drywall concructions and up to 10 mm you are fine. You also can do 68mm holes
yep
What about AEG. I have dug many many gold nuggets out of the WA Calcrete with my AEG. Saved me many hours with a hammer and chisel
AEG don't make anything comparable to these units, or at least they didn't when we did this comparison.
Makita has a new "brushless" 36 volt sds plus hammer drill! You guys should do a review on it! You can find it on the makita website. Please check it out! I'm looking to buy a cordless sds drill and since I'm a makita user I'd like someone to do a review on the NEW XRH07PTU. Since no else has yet.
Nathaniel gamez we are in discussions 👍🏼 (mike)
how come your fast forwarding the others but not milwaukee?
all units receive the same speed multiplier in any given test.
When I search for a new hammer drill I found out that over ~2.6j is to touch. The holes will get to big in diameter because of the high power, you drill faster, but you`r holes will be to large.
[Dwain] interesting thought!
👍
HILTI is in a different League from anything , HILTI in the early 80s was fantastic gear , the Nail guns were amazing also kango's were good part of construction industry,i think Kango make Good shoes Now !! Ha Ha Ha ,that was the day!
Добрый день. Сделайте обзор моделей на 18 вольт
The Hilti version in this test is pretty old. The new 5,2amp batteries has way lower price then the old 6amp batteris. So a bit strange that they havent got the new version
[Dwain] In Australia there are only 2 36V units. This one, the premium unit, for $2.5k, with 6Ah batts. The other comes with 5.2Ah batts, has lower specs and still costs $2k.
Why isn't festool's hammer drill part of this review?
that would have been very unkind to the little 18v Festool.
@@OZToolTalk uhhh, I am a sculptor who has used multiple hammer drills, including hilti and DeWalt corded. My PDC 18/4 can easily keep up with them, hammering into much denser stone than concrete. Maybe not the same run time, but plenty of power.
Dewalt power....unmatched for the same price
So a brushless tool with more power is a better tool!
Oldvideos need to be updated with new videos, there are many new versions of this tools
