  • Right now I only need it to drill loads of holes through concrete wall caps(?). So something super heavy seems unnecessary. Plus when I borrowed my mates cordless Makita it was (I guess) a 2-3kg one, and that was perfectly suitable for loads of stuff. Even then it was still too big for getting into tight spots in our broom cupboard thing, so I imagine something bigger would be worse. And other than the wall caps and fence posts we don't have concrete in our place.

    If I do need something to do serious chasing, then I reckon I'd just get one of those cheap Titans from Screwfix as £/kg/joules they're the best value.

    @konastab01 - cheers. I'll check it out.

    Umming and ahhing whether I should just go for the cheapest dewalt cordless. I think they generally come with 4Ah batteries, and have read reviews suggesting a 9Ah battery. I've only got two little batteries, so while buying a bigger battery would obviously mean I then own a bigger battery, it also changes the cost. Then again idk if it's one of those trades reviews which isn't that applicable to DIY.

  • Mine is one of the cheap Titans. It's heavy but for the very occasional time I need an SDS it doesn't make much difference. 99% of the time I'll just use a DeWalt cordless drill as that can get through most stuff.
