Cordless Hammer Drill Recoomend

RedNeckRacin · Jun 5, 2018

I run a 20v dewalt Hammerdrill with the 3.0AH batteries and its been indispensable building my house. I have drilled several holes through the concrete, but its not much of a substitute to a corded bosch hammerdrill that I also have. They now have the flex batteries that run 20v-60v. Never used them but they look interesting. Make sure youcompare model specs when looking at dewalt. The big box stores are famous for splashing the name and neglecting the details. they have a certain price point to meet and have a model for that price point. Make sure you get a brushless american made and get the big batteries not the 1.5Ah low profile ones. They also have different transmissions and functionality. Do your research.

Is the battery the problem? If so, get more. I don't get far with 2 batteries doing much of anything.

What is the model number of the drill you have?

If you have the flexibility use both corded and cordless.

Bosch RH228VC 1-1/8-Inch SDS-plus Rotary Hammer - Masonry Drill Bits - Amazon.com

Used this to reno bathroom and it's a solid work horse for the DIY'er and pro.
Did not smell any ozone emanating even when using it non-stop for minutes on end.

cordless

Hopefully now you'll have some few selections to read the reviews.
good luck...

I needed a battery after one of mine died and was looking for aftermarket ones on amazon. I found a 6AH one for $10 more than the 4ah ones I already had. I didn’t have much faith in their advertising but I figured I could afford $10 to find out. I was wrong. They’re like the energizer bunny and just keep going. I think my tools run a little stronger too.

Desalt cordless 18V for 1/4” holes in green concrete/blocks and soft brick. Corded Hitachi SDS for holes up to 1 1/4”. Milwaukee hole hog for the really big stuff in wood.

It depends on what you are doing. Brushless motors and Lithium ion batteries are really good features.
