Thrillhouse Posted February 10, 2014 Report Posted February 10, 2014 I have been waiting for this tool for so long and its finally here in Australia any thoughts and opinions on this? Has anyone used this yet? Its either this or the milwaukee fuel range, what do you guys think? cheers fella's
NicholasShetley Posted February 10, 2014 Report Posted February 10, 2014 What are the bonus bare tools, a grinder, impact driver, and what is the last one? I doubt anyone has used it. It is fairly new.
ChrisK Posted February 10, 2014 Report Posted February 10, 2014 Wow. I think I just had a "moment"! Only thing missing was the Miss Makita girls standing next to that! That's a sweet kit but here in the good ole USA, or at least in the North East, Metabo is not readily available at stores. I have heard NOTHING but good about their cordless line but I've never used them. I do have the M18 Fuel impactor plus a bunch of M18 tools and absolutely love them. Good luck!
PT Custom Posted February 10, 2014 Report Posted February 10, 2014 I have never felt the need for 18 volt tools To me they are too bulky/ heavyEven with Lithium. Of course that is specific to my tradeI am sure plenty of you prefer the extra power Just curious if you know the inch/pounds of torqueThe drill provides?One of my guys uses a Metabo corded SDS Hammer drill and loves it. I have not used their cordless products
NicholasShetley Posted February 10, 2014 Report Posted February 10, 2014 It gets 796 inch lbs. The new brushed drill gets 973 inch lbs.
Javier Posted February 10, 2014 Report Posted February 10, 2014 Those batteries are huge(ah)!!! Thats awesome. Thrillhouse you're going to have a hard time finding anyone thats tried both metabo and milwaukee to compare. Atleast here in the U.S. @ Nicholas, that bonus tool looks a lot like the impact so I would assume an impact wrench
NicholasShetley Posted February 10, 2014 Report Posted February 10, 2014 Oh i see now, it looks like a socket on the end now. The only one who would be if any help would be wayne
PT Custom Posted February 10, 2014 Report Posted February 10, 2014 Awesome power. My tools ( not impact ) are 390
DR99 Posted February 11, 2014 Report Posted February 11, 2014 I would be proud to have that Metabo drill in my collection on red tools
Conductor562 Posted February 16, 2014 Report Posted February 16, 2014 I'd grab that in a heart beat, especially with the bonus tool. I can't speak personally to Metabo's quality, but I don't think I've ever heard anything bad at all. Only praises.
