al-yeti Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Better of keeping the Bosch and getting a smaller lighter sds on the dewalt , I see Makita do a few versions of sds smaller ones look good for up ladders perhaps Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/39278-power-drill/page/2/#findComment-433602 Share on other sites More sharing options...
datadiffusion Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 old makita 24v here too, new batts a few years ago but genuine mains performance. Friday it drilled about a 3/4 metre through an ancient cottage wall! So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/39278-power-drill/page/2/#findComment-433622 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adi Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 24v makita here, i have drilled 4" core holes with it before. If drilling 20mm plus holes through brick or concrete bolcks ect... i start with 8mm, then 12mm, then 16mm ect drill bits. stops the batteries getting caned. I really can't be ar**** with it anymore.
