I bought into 36v the day it was available. Back then, NOTHING had the all-day corded experience it offered. It's been kinda sad that Bosch has discontinued the line while Makita has gone on to make an entire lineup. Turns out that 36/72v systems work WAY better for larger power tools and at the same time, their 36v slim pack was pretty light to use too. They should have doubled down on 36v instead of going into 18v like everyone else.
Hi Dean, I have a Würth version of this drill 18volt with brushless motor, it got wet on a rainy day and now it’s not running properly. It will run if you pull the trigger half way but if you pull it fully it’s start stopping. But it is doing the led flashing. I’ve opened the trigger and it’s clean inside. And the battery pins are not worn.
I always have to chuckle when I see the poor iron. That tip isn't a tip anymore, it's already worn down to the actual shaft that once had a tip xD Also dippin that gui into some rosin flux for cleaning it would go a long way. But at the same time I kind of like the rough nature of it :D
Nice to see why the magic gaffer tape fix works 😂 And as always I'm left wondering where you got those slim long screwdriver bits from. If you ever fancy doing a follow up to basic tools vid, one on greases, lubes and service aids would be great!
Great videos Dean. Never had mine apart. Till now. And i have never had such issues putting anything back together. When i pulled the gearbox out to get the casing apart it came out completely. All the gears are fine selector is fine but cant get the gearbox past the selector pin to lock everything back . Any advice ?
That looks like a Weller 60W Soldering Iron - WLIR6012A? How do you like it? I need to replace my little TS100. Was looking at the Weller or Hakko stations, but yours might do the trick for a quarter the price.
Wouldn't replace a TS100 with one of those, a it's big downgrade to go from a tip with an integrated heater to one of these. If you need to solder bigger joints you may find a larger mass tip on a TS100 alone solves your issue, and make sure you're running it at the higest voltage you can too as they are pretty weak on 12v. Ideally 24V but I personally use an 18V tool battery. (20v when fully charged)
Lead free solder's a pain and I'm not a fan of it at all, those connectors are an admission of a bad design when they sell that separately and cheaply.
Quick question. Does the higher end drills with e-brake skip few times on the chuck teeth when stopping? Got myself the beast 40V Makita HP001 and on speed 2 she will stop spinning, but will jump few times on the chuck teeth.
Apparently it's a fault with this model it has a clutch problem mate..looked at Screwfix on the comments 2 out of 2 said 1 star very disappointed..get a refund
@@fredholmes6284 Some other forums say it might be due to hammer function of it. Apparently the DF001 does not have this problem with chuck ratcheting when come to a stop on high speed. HP001 and DF001 are same tools, but without hammer function for the second one. Sent email to Makita for answer. It might be just that the drill torque is too powerful when stopping from highest speed. We will see.
@@fredholmes6284 Makita sent instant reply after Ive mailed them with the video. They said its normal due to power and speed of this model. The brake need to stop it from 2600rpm to 0 in less than a second. Im guessing those on Screwfix just got faulty machines, also they seemed to had different problem than me. Anywhere else people praise them, rather than say they are the problem. Only problem for most of them is the electronic clutch which require time to get used to. Cheers anyway.
Quick question, I’m looking into buying cordless power tools and I don’t know what brand is the best in terms of repairability and availability of parts. I’d like something I can have for a while. Out of Makita, Bosch, DeWalt and Milwaukee, what’s the best in that regard as performance-wise they’re close enough for me.
I've been following this channel for a while. If you want repairabilty don't get Milwaukee or Hilti. You can trust Makita and Dewalt, but with Bosch you can get spares almost from all parts separately. In terms of reliability I think Makita and Bosch are the best.
- this is a ridiculous design (motor is a big joke, and this also applies to battery contacts), why you are so fond of bosch? (-it supposed to be blue line, for professional use). PS- the actual repair video is as always top notch, but I would expect to find the design, at least, poor.
Wouldn't be surprised if by the time bushes needs replacing so would the vibration dampers, that and the days of tool cost being proportional to repairability and parts availability seems to be on its way out
First this is old model of the machine.Design is same or better than others.For example Hilti uses exactly same motor in some older machines (even newer than this Bosch).
no brand is perfect and Bosch is no exception. But the performance of this sds drill is one of the best on the market. It was a step backward when then they tool this model out. as the older model had a universal motor, so the brushes could be changed. So yes, this dc motor is a pain. But the upside, nothing else give any trouble in these machines apart from the motor and the contacts. Rarely do i ever need go into the gearbox. These are for pros and they need pro performance, when a trades man needs a reliable powerful sds drill, this one of the best options. as when the brushes do run out, you are leaving the machine running like new again with a new motor. I dont like the way the motor needs to be replaced but lads using them heavily recommend them still. As for bosch tools themselves, they are still one the best quality and built tools available, there is not many brands whos tools last as long as bosch. But the main downside to bosch is range. They have not kept up with rest when it comes to their tool range and availability.
Thanks for the video, Bosch 36V tools are rare.
We still see plenty in the uk. Especially the bigger tools. These big old dogs go on for a long time. Solid old drills

Mines got just the same fault.Just ordered the part £ 18.99. Thought it was the brushes, great video .Many thanks and great content.
Glad it helped
Super quick diagnosis, you're the best
You are the best .So happy to view your videos
Thank you so much 😀
Love your videos! Thanks
Nice job Dean. Love the way you work about these tools. Great knowledge on all these tools
Liked the tip of the crocodile clip to hold the cable in place for soldering
Great to have the commentary back
Just recently found your channel.
Love the content. Really useful, thanks for sharing. Great stuff 👍

thanks for video
brushed motors is the champion!
very durable.
stronger.
economic fabrication.
simple for repair.
Keep your videos coming, Dean, regards from N.Z
I look forward to watching Dean's videos always explains things very well.
Yeah bloody good. NEW Zealand loves ya!!

I have the 18v version... 2019 ... motors OK in them? Sure works great--
Great videos Dean.
Never had mine apart.
Till now.
And i have never had such issues putting anything back together.

Any advice ?
You need to pull out the change lever first
I have a Dewalt 945 12 volt Nickel cadmium system do they make a adapter for this battery so you can run the newer batteries with this drill?
Any idea what the small red wire is powering that you soldered on? Is it possible to get electrical schmatic diagram for this model??
dear dean. i desperatly searching case of makita batery 18v. not sells not the board just the case. how can i contact you to buy 2 of those?
Can I send up a 3611 J00 R00 bosch gbh 36 v-li , pull the trigger it may or may not go
That looks like a Weller 60W Soldering Iron - WLIR6012A? How do you like it?

Are Bosch tools made in the Eurozone or the Big Rock Candy Mountain currently ? I know Metabo swings both ways (or did). Thank you
Bosch tools are made everywhere Germany,Malaysia,China etc.Hammers (corded and cordless) better models are made in Germany,angle grinders also etc.
It is a shame that the brushes can't be replaced in that motor.
Is there no way you can put new brushes into that motor by finding some the same size? Like what you do with the panasonics?

Your soldering iron tip is oxidised. Treat yourself to a new one.
