I never want to buy any of these things, and no need too, but love seeing how you review new makita tools Amazing that you can have a concrete breaker on batteries like this
Have you/will you done a review on the high pressure screwguns Makita makes? They seem to be very Japanese market focused but could be a game changer for the shoulder compared to pushing a cordless screwgun.
Now im wondering by way of charging times for two 8ahs and the 20 minute runtime how many batteries you would need to run this all day... As for the weight, I used a 66lb harbor freight hercules concrete breaker the other day and it was a beast. 4 more pounds may not be noticeable at that point, but the lack of cord would definitely be welcome. That was the biggest problem with operating the hercules, and that "soft start" would aslo be very welcome.
I can burn through a battery very quick with SDS Max ….or only kill a bar. So many variables. The Nuron jackhammer is just within reason on 12ah batteries (2 less 21700:than the XGT 8ah). You can break away all day rotating batteries. That’s for a smaller 25 ft lb class (it’s a tad bit more) . I was surprised when I saw that Makita jumped straight to the 50-60 ft lb class. Not only the run time but also (I feel I’m not alone in saying this), I’d rather rent a skid steer with a hydraulic breaker if I needed more than the smallest jackhammer. Thankfully, I haven’t touched one in probably 15 years. You may not realize it but wielding that Hercules is a bit of flex. Those larger electric (corded and cordless) jackhammers are a lot to manage.
@@robertrada4783 thankfully it wasn't for super long, it was under a deck we are going to remove where I had to dig out a 3ft deep trench for a footing to extend the house and there was a concrete pier from one of the deck supports right in the way, about 16 inches wide by 3 foot deep. I had to work at the sides because I had already dug around the whole thing. Not fun.
What's the point of this tool over a normal jack hammer with petrol? It's not lighter, it doesn't run longer etc? I feel like this is a solution to anone existent problem. I have the Makita 80v rotary breaker and gave found niche uses for it, however ultimately it was a waste of money
It's hard to beat petrochemicals for energy density, no one disputes that; but they generate fumes and present a fire hazard. If you can handle small to moderate work that requires a jackhammer without having to deal with that it's a win. You're not going to layout a full trench, but for gaining access to do repair work or annoying places it makes sense. I see this as a van/job specific tool, not a primary tool for day in/day out. ...also you shouldn't really be using a jack hammer for more than 20 minutes solid. I know that's not what is done, but best practices to not cause vibration related injury say...
I don't need one I don't want one. But I want to see this tool review because it's a tool for real men. 😎😍😎 And as much fun as the earth auger especially with heavy metal in the background.
The demolition hammer looks strange with those batteries hanging on the sides... the impact energy is truly excellent, but the design of the tool leaves a lot to be desired, when you work with a tool like this, first of all you are interested in it being ergonomic, not transmit the vibrations to the user, have a good weight/percussion energy ratio, and on the weight and design side, Makita failed. from my point of view, we are designing this tool without those side batteries which are a weak point in the operation of the tool... If I were to design a tool like this, I would use a backpack for batteries and the tool would be a few kg lighter, much more ergonomic , with higher reliability. What happens if this demolisher falls on its side and damages the support together with the battery?
Good review, don’t kill yourself just to show off a demon hammer, we know what they do and whoever is buying one of these already knows the deal with these 60 lb class hammers.
Are they going to have a green outdoor version for the US market? For firewood? Also, I don't think it would be that hard to get it into the frame. Just use a wider angle lens. Might have the side effect of showing your face. But, really, would that matter? Your massive Makita collection is quite recognizable.
Pretty sure the equivalent US phrase would be: "Make sure you eat your Wheaties" -- aka "the breakfast of Champions" a cereal long leveraging famous athletes for advertising .. and first made 8 years before Weetabix even existed (probably why Weetabix isn't much of a thing in the US) 😉
Actually Weetabix is the UK version of Weetbix which started in Australia around 1926 and quickly started production in New Zealand and South Africa before being launched as Weetabix in the UK. But it's a moot point really as Wheaties and Weetbix/Weetabix are completely different products.
@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL Interesting and agreeably moot as about the only common thread is being "whole grain wheat" breakfast cereals ...and apparently being a prerequisite breakfast for doing a hard task 😆
Would not be an issue if you have plenty of batteries if you're going to go cordless you're going cordless all the way get a thousand batteries if you want🎉
That’s if it’s on the whole time, which would be highly unlikely…near impossible if you’re not Arnold Schwarzenegger. Probably more like 35-50 minutes. The concrete itself being the variable.
"Get One Here:" None of these links work. Seems that the product is not available yet. I suppose it will be very expensive. And no information on makita homepage how long a set of batteries typically will last..
It is a very new tool and so I put links that will show the tool once it is available so I don't have to keeping checking around the world everyday to see when it becomes available. $3K NZ/AUS. And Makita claim it runs for 20mins on 2x 8Ah batteries as stated in the video.
XGT Router Review ua-cam.com/video/uHBXyxhdSw4/v-deo.html
I love watching reviews of products I will never, ever purchase.
I’m a simple man. I see makita, I click
That was my thought too.. until I go and buy it after the video lol
3:30 that was a heritage listed piece of concrete, poured by Captain James Cook himself. Vandal!
In the current climate that wouldn't be seen as vandalism by many.
Sad but true@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL
@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL alright then, lets dedicate it to the most famous New Zealander of all time - Pauly Fuemana

Amazing that you can have a concrete breaker on batteries like this
12:25 T&S walks into a bar wearing just one jandal. Barman says "did you lose a jandal?". T&S says "Nah mate, I found one"
I can’t wait for this to get here in the states
Same here. Any idea when it will be released here?
Got the weeder head attachment yet I saw an add the other day for it
Hi tools! Cool to see you take on some of the bigger stuff. But i really wish you could take a look at the HR005g and 006g.
I’m sure it’s a blast getting the 8 ah batts out of that thing.
You need stronger thumbs 👍
@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL I’ve been pounding creative all month and all I’ve gained is more tits.
Love the video. Will you be doing a review one the xgt sds max tools?
Possibly.
Nice hammer action 😂
how does this stack against the other makita 80v demo hammer?
Haha awesome, I bet this was fun to film (minus the weight ofc) 😅😎
It was!
Tools & The Offspring
Bosch needs to come out with something like this.
The 36v SDS max already is good with concrete, can’t imagine what this thing would do.
I had my coffee and my Sour Patch Kids Oreos cereal for breakfast while watching this

nice to hear a bit of offspring
What, no patented safety sandals? :)
I have absolutely no requirement or use of this beast of a tool... But want.
Love that to remove my broken driveway
With a 20 minute runtime on 8ah batteries I'd just buy the corded makita version. For just a one or two day job of breaking up a sidewalk I'd rent one
i have the corded one, would love to compare them. The cord is annoying, but better runtime. :-)
Any idea when this will be available in the states?

Cracking song choice, not there best album but by far not the worst
Had to find one that fit, and one that I could get copyright clearance for.
@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL yer would make it hard. Shame couldn’t use something off the “SMASH” album 😛
Breakfast Pizza! Yum😄
Works sweat on the wood.
40 volt table saw ?
I wish
The day Makita makes a good modern table saw is the day that pigs fly
Looks pretty
How can I go to the world of concrete in Australia
What maintenance is necessary every 50hrs? I'm very interested in this but I need to be able to service it myself.
You can do it yourself. Search for the HM004G manual for details.

I heard that Tony still on the demolition hammer. What did he do this time?
I nearly had to sack him today.

Construction in cities are becoming more electric due to mandates, and “auctions” were the most electric company wins the contract for a job

Redbands... steel cap?
Look again, they ain't red.
I have NO need for this tool.
But I WANT it. Badly.

“weet-bix, in NZ, and in the US ‘breakfast pizza” I think you mean ‘Shredded Wheat’ in the US. I’ve never heard of breakfast pizza. 🤷🏼♀️ X
Or wheaties in the US. Forgot about wheaties for a moment. Good stuff 👍

If only there was an 8 bay Makita XGT battery charging box called BCC01 to accompany this tool, hmm....
If only it was available...
less dumb music, i want to hear the machine

20mim run time… yet again putting battery’s onto tools that DO NOT NEED batteries… worlds gone mad.
Of all the mad shit going on in the world at the moment, this seems rather low down the scale.
Would not be an issue if you have plenty of batteries if you're going to go cordless you're going cordless all the way get a thousand batteries if you want🎉

Lol mr tools I think you need to hit the gym. Less beer more protein. That thing looks awesome.
Correct. Although I eat plenty of protein with the beer.
This will be a waste of time for actually breaking concrete.Everything concrete related battery’s are a joke, for now that is.
Why?
Battery’s what? I am sure you meant batteries, but your whole comment is just a word salad, so that’s the least of your issues.
Good choice for residential basements.
