Guest Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 24 volt Dewalt here too, the only thing is the batts dont last anywhere near that of the bosch's (Charge wise) - But then again the capacity of the dewalt batts are lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breff Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 I've stripped the gear teeth a couple of times on my 24v bosch sds (If the drill bit jams put it in reverse quickly), other than that its superb. The opinions I express are mine and are usually correct! (Except when I'm wrong)(which I'm not) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 I've had the 24V DeWalt for nearly 2 years and can't fault it. Recently used both batteries on site with no mains and had to use the equivalent Bosch 24V. The 5.5m holes seemed to take twice as long to drill, it just didn't have the power that the DeWalt did. I've never had a problem with it...it rips through everything I've thrown at it. never owned a 24v Dewalt so can't comment. The Bosch 24v take a few seconds to make a 5.5 hole for a PIR. The 24v Bosch doesn't have chisel action though. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
