I regret not buying this or even a 36v DHR263/DHR280 over the DHR183 which I did buy. I use my SDS all day for insulation work on Reinforced concrete frame apartments with 5.5mm 260mm long bits and 160mm bits. Thank you for the work you do filming in particular Makita SDS content. Thumbs up.
Very interesting. I find the small bits say 8mm and down tend to get really tight in the hole. It's a paradox of compact drills, they actually tend to struggle drilling really small. Is that what you're finding? Especially drilling like 200mm deep that's hard
@@BoltahDownunder the insulation is 80mm thick where I am with a channel of 20mm and the screws are concrete screws are 160mm long so they drill 60mm deep with the 260mm long bit maybe a 80mm so the screw was wiggle room. The drill is lovely and light but the force doesn't fair well with long drill bits. When I put the 115mm and 160mm Bosch expert bits in for surface mounted 50mm concrete screws it's fine. I just got a dhr263 2 x 18v used for £110 so let's see how that fares. I paid £250 for the dhr183 with the extractor.
@@shifty277 gotcha. Bit length isn't something i've tested yet but i reckon longer bits bend a little under the impact and will soften the blows. Keep us posted how your new one goes. My first ever hammer was 36V but i don't have it any more
Great review! How does it fair against drilling reinforced concrete quickly? Say you were working high and needed to anchor ACM cladding fast, would you get by with this or would it better to go with one of makitas more powerful models?
Yeah probably! I haven't tried it on rebar specifically but that'll heavily depend on the bits you're using anyway. Otherwise it'll depend on the hole size you're drilling. If around 12mm or less, I reckon the power: weight will pay off with this one. Pound for pound it's probably the best on the market. But if you're drilling bigger than that, go a bigger drill
That drill is the best part of 10 years old - it is a decent drill but it has no anti vibration in today's age of drills having dampening. Also if you need the dust extractor the one that goes with the DHR242 is huge compared to the one that comes with this. Hope that helps.

Второй год в работе отлично зарекомендовал. Докупить пыли сборник 😊
Would you say its good enough for tile removal?
Yay i just have picked one yesterday with a suprised price and i love it
Awesome! Enjoy, she's a great little tool

Legend, thanks mate!
Do you think if its better then the dhr 242 or just get that one?

Also if you need the dust extractor the one that goes with the DHR242 is huge compared to the one that comes with this.

14mm를 잘뚫나요?
Yes! It drills 14mm very well
@@BoltahDownunder thx
