So there's no all in one tool then? Have to get a rotary drill for concrete and another drill/driver for basic stuff?LYN Power Tools Discussion, Bosch, Hitachi, Milwaukee, Metabo, Hilti

QUOTE(zeronuker @ Aug 11 2015, 07:31 PM) So there's no all in one tool then? Have to get a rotary drill for concrete and another drill/driver for basic stuff? hammer got two type.QUOTE If you need to drive a screw into concrete, you've got two choices. Either you use a large rotary hammer or a drill driver with a hammer-drill function. Both tools pound the bit while it spins, pulverizing concrete, but the two differ in the mechanisms that do the actual pounding. In a rotary hammer, a cylinder of air is compressed by a piston, which in turn beats the bit. In a hammer drill, two ribbed metal discs click in and out against one another, causing impact. Among tradesmen working daily, rotary hammers are preferred because of their superior strength and shock-absorbing qualities. For the occasional user, the large, bulky tools are often overkill—a powerful all-purpose drill driver with a hammer-drill setting makes more sense. |

QUOTE(zeronuker @ Aug 11 2015, 08:16 PM) i think got some torque and RPM difference.. but i use it for drilling screws directly into metal so use driver is ok (to hold hex screw tip)if drilling with drill bit then obviously use chuck type , which i already got the 10.8V makita for those type of application |

Even so will probably drill holes to screw in for shelves or racks and picture frames and such. Nothing too extreme.You reckon still need to get a rotary? |

GDR1440 is for contractor use which require heavy duty and long working time. Overkill for you. 2. It is much more heavy. Not suitable for beginner. 3. It have less function compare the GSB10,8-2-LI. See at the chuck side. GDR1440 mainly for impact screw driver. It can't hold a drill bit. And can't drill a hole on metal and wood. So it doesn't bang for your money. The bosch my website is useless. Doesn't give much more information. It is difficult to select and understand for beginner. You can take a closure look at similar thing here https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2234276/+480 |

Hi there, I am new to here but just a thought, if buying cordless lithium battery range, seems like bosch lithium batteries do not have cell balancing circuits internally. Basically the charger considers the battery is fully charge when the battery start to heat up. Newer generations seems to try to correct the previous lithium battery generation but still not as good as it should be. Balanced charging is very important for lithium batteries if you are heading towards that direction.

Just wanna share my diy experience:
Recently had to do some drilling for my tv wall bracket and other bathroom accessories. Went to hardware shop wanted to source for used rotary hammer drill. It's about 200ish for makita or bosch. No warranty. But shop owner suggested to get brand new cheap one dat costs less than rm200. At least he said got warranty for few months. So I bought it, and man it did all da drilling job I needed to do with much ease and effort. (fyi, i was using my impact drill at first. But gave up.) Blue one da new rotary hammer drill. Orange color my impact drill. This post has been edited by metalbod: Aug 13 2015, 08:13 AM |

you are better off with skill rotary drill 1715 for rm300. hammer drill is harder to drill in walls. esp concrete wall
