  • Hilti Nuron made a big splash when it first released 2 1/2 years ago and I finally got a chance to test it. So is it worth the premium you pay for it?

    A little story for you all about Hilti from me here in England. 35 years ago a contractor came to the Theatre I work at to do some work. If I remember rightly he did some electrics, which I don't do. About a week after he had left I found that he had left his 110 volt corded Hilti TE1 SDS drill behind. I phoned him many times and after a month or so he said he had replaced it with a newer model Hilti and I could keep it or throw it away as he had thrashed it pretty hard since he had it and it was probably on it's last legs. So I kept it, cleaned it, bought a 110 transformer and it became the workshop bitch so to speak, used by all my young assistants and trainees who would happily kick it across concrete floors to each other instead of passing it to each other. It was thrashed using drill bits far too big for it and generally mistreated in every way possible. I meanwhile used my pretty new Makita SDS drills and guarded them against trainees and assistants!! Well.....35 years on and that Hilti is still as sweet as it was when I got it 2nd hand and it has outlasted many new Makita's, DeWalts and others. Nowadays though, I treat it with the respect it deserves. I also have to say that it drills just as quickly as other modern up to date Makita's etc that are also used by people at my work. It is just a joy to use and is not at all aggressive! It is vibration free and very smooth but drills really quickly. It also has a very long lead on it. So if I'm re-vamping one of our 25 dressing rooms, I can plug it in and it will comfortably reach every wall in a 15 foot square room. I can then keep my battery gear for screwdriving etc.
    Dave.

    I use the Hilti SF6H A22, the SID-4 Impact and the TE6 A22 on the old battery platform. Hilti gear is by far the best I've used in over 40 years. I also run Milwaukee Gen3 combi, impact and the 61/2" Circular saw. Milwaukee are junk by comparison with trigger issues on all 3 tools. Plus, after sales service with Hilti is 2nd to none. I sent my Milwaukee combi back to have the trigger issue addressed and it took 3 weeks to come back and the problem was still there. My old assistant dropped my earlier model SF6H Hilti down a deep street drain. It still worked OK but sounded a bit weird on the run-out. I called my local Hilti rep and he was with me within half an hour with a replacement drill and he took mine away to be looked at. Mine was back with me within 24 hours and the rep took the loaner back. So half an hour down-time compared to 3 weeks with the Milwaukee.

    I admit that the wonky batteries were what steered my away when I was looking for a new platform. But I really like and respect Hilti as a brand. I feel like they represent the higher end of quality build and robustness and taming power a bit to maintain that, which is a viable strategy. Milwaukee seems to have a bit of the Dodge approach, flashy numbers and marketing, it’s insane while it lasts but it just feels less refined. Makita hit the Goldilocks zone especially with the xgt drills.

    I was all about power myself being heavily invested in Milwaukee, but over time had some
    Problems with their tools and gave Hilti a go. They are very nice tools and very comfortable/smooth operating. Once you have the batteries/charger, any additional tools are very reasonable. Their look/molding are second to none. That makita drill is sweet. Just can’t get past the teal!

    I do think the test was a bit unfair for the Bosch, as the drill was designed for the 8ah battery it performs a lot worse with the smaller batteries. And since the Nuron batteries are huge, why not just go with the proper Bosch 8ah battery?
    The Makita XGT drill is a winner for sure.

      Possibly also to circumvent the 5-cell 18volt patent by just using a 6-cell 24v system instead. Kobalt did this and that's probably why their small battery only costs ~30$ new(well.. pre-pandemic.)

      As I stated in an earlier reply, my old Hilti SF6H A22 got dropped down a deep street drain by my old assistant. It came out pretty horrible but still worked alright apart from sounding weird on the run-out. I called my Hilti rep and he was with me within half an hour with a replacement drill. Mine was back within 24 hours and looked like a brand new drill. It was over a year old and I was charged nothing!! I don't know if it makes a difference but I live in England.

    How mich longer do the nuron batteries last compared to the original 22v ones?

    • @TinkerWithTools
      @TinkerWithTools  Год назад +1

      I don’t have any of the non-Nuron tools so I am not sure I am the best person to answer it. At the end of the day a 4ah battery will be 4ah so they should last similar. But the new batteries to have better heat management and more advanced electronics to optimize their use so you might experience some gains but I wouldn’t expect huge differences.

      @TinkerWithTools  Год назад +2

      This will be a little long but it’s worth mentioning. You can buy the tools online with Home Depot but not everything is available so I went through Hilti directly. I looked at doing it online and the shipping costs were substantial compared to other that offer free shipping. Between 30 and 95 dollars depending on speed. You can then order and pick up in store but only if it’s in stock. I considered getting different tools but this was what was in stock at my store. In the end I went to the store to make the purchase and the guys there were nice and helpful. But it’s not as simple as buying with other brands.

      It's hard to convey just how little of their business is built around tools. They are a construction and fastening company, not a tool company.

    Nice Review. Hilt is not striving for fastest better numbers. Its an overall experience. Repairs parts available for 20yrs from now! match that (RED Blue Yellow) Price cap repairs! failed to mention. No mater the issue hilt has a price cap on repairs meaning is more cost effective to repair than throwaway. I do believe RED also has a price cap on repairs.
    In comparison of the tools adding vibration into the equation would be awesome. Hilti's AVR is awesome in concrete tools. But that still doesn't mean they didn't incorporate that into the other tools. Noise level was less in hilti as you demonstrated. big deal on a job site or small inclosure. Should test noise in a box and outside of a box on all tools as well as vibration while using it!

    • @TinkerWithTools
      @TinkerWithTools  5 месяцев назад

      It's a fair point but as for any measure of vibration it would just be subjective at this point. I am not set up for any equipment to be able to measure that.

  • @klipschkef0144
    @klipschkef0144 Год назад +1

    Let's cut to the chase, HILTI doesn't give a shit about on how fast it can drive the screw or the drill bit whereas the other tool brand such as dewalt, milwaukee and makita etc only give a shit about the power of the tools. Hilti is aiming for professional end user like big company and they do only care about the reliability of their tools and their after sales service. Their tools design to get the job done in a average speed and their tools design to LAST FOREVER if not LAST LONGER THAN ANY OTHER BRAND.

    I would not recommend Hilti tools for general wood working or wood construction. Hilti has some of the best post-installed concrete & CMU anchors on the market. Their bread & butter is anchoring to concrete for the commercial construction world.

    • @TinkerWithTools
      @TinkerWithTools  Год назад

      I think if you are one their platform for other things, they can make sense... but if you aren't using the "bread and butter" as you called it, the price is harder to justify. They will still get the job done and they are very nice to use, but there are more budget friendly premium tools that can do that as well.

    • @JthaEngineer
      @JthaEngineer Год назад +1

      100% agree. Their concrete anchors, their epoxy systems & tools they specifically made for their items is what got them to where they are. Hilti will tell you that themselves that it is their "bread & butter". But I guess my point, although horribly communicated, is there's no need to get into this line unless you're doing a lot of post-installed concrete work.
