once you go cordless hammer u wont go back. just climb ladder aim, tak tak tak tak..10seconds.. finish.
no need pull cord or extension

yes no torque control
wrong, got sds chuck (can use any size drill bit) and sds magnetic hex (can use hex bits)
wrong, my cordless rotary is lighter than my bosch corded
so yes can use as screw driver
only thing it doesnt have for my model is chiselling mode to chip concrete

i think 1300 is newer, pricier and comes with the extra handle/depth stop. i bought the 500 (3years ago) cos it was really cheap 100+
i think now newer 500 also have handle. but not so cheap already lol.

seen the videos.. very weak spray haha. i think just good for washing car.
since i got used to my freebie credit card points karcher so powerful to remove dirt off the tiles and drain.

ya, thats why i dont invest in bosch system.
only buy their cheap storage box

havent decide next proper upgrade yet.
might go with dewalt power station cos i need 110v onsite power for my 110v corded power tools

hard to explain unless u doing proper carpentry. US tools for carpentry is more developed than what u can get here (asian market).

at UK construction job sites the main power by law is also 110v, not 240v. so 110v tools have more options for the advanced user and also lots of price promotions to be had during some time of the year

i dont think 230v is banned but the companies which uses them needs to have to comply to alot of regulations and have their equipments inspected frequently.
in short, they use 110v as prefered choice. yes they have big ass yellow step down transformers for 110v power

http://www.hse.gov.uk/construction/safetytopics/systems.htm

as for me, 110v is for jobsite use and also a range of 18v system

in the workshop , mostly 240v system but going with 3phase equipment soon. panel saw/spindle moulder, thicknesser, jointer , bandsaw etc.

i mean in my current workshop
using 240v now, can feel the motor slowing down when cutting proper hard timber, so will be going with 3phase machines soon.
furniture building will be done at workshop

onsite projects, then we carry our tools there and have completely different set from workshop, even have portable table saw and track saw. and using cordless nailers as well

its already maxed out at 2.2kw. there is no 4kw 240v motor.

gas nailers is usually for roof and wall framing la, bigger nails like those used to make pallets. we dont build house with pine 2x4

li-ion nailers is the defacto choice now for other carpentry work. thats why everyone from makita , hitachi to milwaukee to ryobi makes them. usually brad nails and finish nailers.
air compressor nailer also a good choice, which is why i am planing to buy a mini pancake compressor (110V) to run air driven tools on site too, with the dewalt powerstation outputting 110v for 5-6hours, its cordless in a way as well. and can run my 110v contractor saw and 110v miter saw

currently, i only have one 110V tool (wagner HVLP gun) which uses a small stepdown tx (jln pasar grade teletron) and long power extension cord.
and other cordless tools, I am using my 18v ryobi series (6-8 different tools that i have now)

but if i get the dewalt powerstation it can supply 15A @ 110V so pretty much most of the jobsite portable tools (in USA) can be used (its gonna be light work at site anyway but it still needs to be done at site).
so corded 110V USA tools is super cheap (maybe 20+% cheaper during sales) compared to Asia/UK 240V corded tools. the savings there also get free dewalt already. and it's pseudo cordless. (no need outlet to run)

and in the meantime, I am planning to buy the 3phase 415v heavy power tools for the new workshop as well.

yup its a 4 x battery, power station/backup powerbank (cant use as charger cos it accepts only 110V in)
so use as 110V out only. (battery charge with 240v charger)

UK users have mention it would have been better if it has 12V DC out. then can add a 240V inverter (12V to 240V) and can power 240v devices as well..oh well maybe next update for this model.
but for me the sole purpose to to buy USA 110V grade power tools. much cheaper and more variety.

the point is to get away from the house/shop outlet leh.

i got dewalt corded sander, i got ryobi cordless sander, the last 3weeks for 3 projects that i did in the car porch, been using the ryobi every time, so easy without cord. no need tarik extension out to inside house wall point

can use with dewalt 18v power tools. good excuse to buy more dewalts (bare tools from USA) from now

i have a made in japan stepdown. 1feet x 1feet x 1feet cube from mid 90s. quite heavy leh. lazy to lug that around and dont have urge to buy another step down

most of the aspect now is timber trading, but since we have timber, then can also make products from it. (but dowan use cacat tools to do it) the other day saw some high end custom made kitchen furniture using walnut. my carpenter say look at this shit. the worker router the groove also like DIY quality. the glue line also like 1mm wide. wtf

congrats

i recently bought its side table attachment.
can be attached to your table or attach to 2nd unit easily

obviously solid. proven concept.

i have one 4years back. snapon oem taiwan supplier. only used 2 times, and didnt use a full tube yet. of coz tube also expired already

yup battery op. didnt have pics now cos dunno where i stored it already.

quite straight forward. just press the trigger
u can control the speed, and when you depress the trigger, it reverses back abit to ease off the pressure.

just buy and hentam into concrete lo.
if it dies just send in for waranty
