dwain Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 I want to love this tool. I think it would be awesome for handyman contractors, repair guys etc. Can't decide if I'd buy it myself .... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bremon Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 While it is a novel idea, and looks like a quality execution, I hate the idea of being tied to one drill. As you mentioned, that motor goes, everything goes. I would rather have 5 motors at a slightly inflated price. Plus, I'm a tool addict, so anything to add more to the pile. Also, for the price of the kit, a plastic chuck in 2016 does not sit well with me. I realize it doesn't make a huge difference but there are so many options out there that tools really need to match what everyone else does, and then bring stuff to the table in addition to that. This brings new stuff to the table but doesn't check all the boxes. Almost forgot, but I think it goes without saying at this point that it's another great video from OTT! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 Love my T18 and CXS Dwain. Glad Bosch is pushing these out. Can't wait to see Milwaukee intro theirs in the near future here in the USA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D W Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 Thanks for the video. I agree @Bremon. I just bought a Metabo BS 18 Quick with the view to get all the quick chucks and right angle chucks etc (it didn't come with any extra). But, they're about $70 each! I've changed my mind now. It would have been great to have it all bundled together like the Bosch, or like the 10.8v Metabo version. I love the concept though!

jeffmcmillan Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 Great review. I bet what that rep said about high power of the SDS was just the impact energy since it sounded like heavy blows at a particularly slow rate. That would also explain why it was so comfortable. This sort of platform seems better suited to 12V. In fact I'd consider individual 12V tools first for the intended application but that's just me.

Logan Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 It's a great idea and for some people it's awesome but I don't know if it would work for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pancing Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 That looks like a more expensive B&D matrix drill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimboS1ice Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 That looks like a more expensive B&D matrix drill. Matrix has a whole slew of different various saw attachments, this models more of the swapped chuck for various fastening application Jimbo Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overanalyze Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 I want this exact setup in the Bosch 12v/10.8v line. Brushless and multiple uses! Sent from my SM-T310 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwain Posted August 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 thanks guys! Yeah id also like to see it in 12v, though you couldn't get this much power into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-T310 using Tapatalk I'd love to see that set up too. Milwaukee has had there's out for a little while now over seas but... My CXS does the work just fine! The main problem is it's a stand alone tool. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk I love the fact that they copied Festools Eccentric chuck for this kit. Absolutely awesome chuck, especially when working inside of a drawer well when you need to screw into the base and have to lay the tool on its side. That work awesome. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrius Posted August 21, 2016 Report Share Posted August 21, 2016 This tool looks nice, but I don`t liked to use it with SDS+ head because of weight balance I am Makita lover, but I have customer (big Bosch lover) and I`m starting to love Bosch tools...

The SDS feature is cool but capacity probably wouldn't be too high or as effective as a dedicated SDS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwain Posted August 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 I think it's probably fine for up to 12mm in concrete. Probably larger in cynder blocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
