ChrisK Posted July 10, 2015 Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 Hey guys, I just shot an Unboxing video. I just received an early birthday present in the mail. The Bosch DDH181X-01 Brute Tough drill!!! Thanks Eric and Dan! This guy is a freakin' beast! I'm going to be shooting another video and add it to this post comparing it to my other heavy duty beast, the Dewalt DCD985 drill I love. What's so cool is the fact that this guy comes with the 4.0 ah batteries and the new BC630 rapid charger. Hope you guys like the video and thanks for watching!Tools in Action Baby!!!!!!! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kornomaniac Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 That's a beast Of a drill m8 !!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Jass Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 Looks nice. I have the DCD995 and it looks like it has the same torque rating, and I can testify to the amount of power that is. My favorite feature because of this is that it has a sensor to detect arm twist and it disables the motor keeping you from getting FUBAR. Good stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR99 Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 I just got the same drill in the mail today thanks to Dan and Eric!! The weird thing is the video for the exact Bosch Drill posted on my birthday September 9th. That is a crazy coincidence!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR99 Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 Might have to get the Bosch drywall gun in the near future now that I have Bosch batteries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madman_us Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 once you started with a new battery platform you "will" get new and more tools Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK Posted July 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 So in checking out that charger, that thing is awesome. It's powerfully fast with the 4.0s and the fan is like the Makita charger. Super powerful. This is doubly awesome because I've got the wireless chargers and batteries but they are 2.0 batteries. These guys will charge just as quickly. Really awesome drill. Thanks Mike! Love doing the Unboxing videos. I'm hoping to post one of this and the Dewlat DCD985 today or tomorrow. Bosch is really kicking it with this brushed super heavy duty model. The chuck and ring are super strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kruton Posted July 12, 2015 Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 So do they just send you guys random tools? If so that is really awesome! Did they come with the big charging cradle or just the wireless charger base?Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK Posted July 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 This tool comes with the BC630 Kruton. It's a 30minute rapid charger. The wireless system required the battery to be configured a little differently but you can charge wireless batteries on the regular chargers! Awesome innovation with these tools!

madman_us Posted July 12, 2015 Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 the wireless charging station is really cool. but i dont own one yet....its just luxury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrippedScrew Posted July 12, 2015 Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 That is a beast of a drill im really torn between this drill and others. my aging dewalt is really showing its age and the batteries are next to no good now not holding a charge anymore.

ChrisK Posted July 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 Alright guys....professional opinion Bosch DDH181X 18v Drill Kit...I shot a quick video of the Bosch in action and running next to the DCD985 hammer. This was a really good comp as the machines are both 18v (Dewalt is 20v max....ie....18v) and we're both running 4.0ah batteries. The test subject was a 2x6 kiln dried and the mechanisms were a Lennon 2-1/4" hole saw and a 13 y/o 1" dull spade bit (Irwin...yikes!). Firstly, I'd like to apologize for the music....not type, just volume, and my volume....weird shooting while my Wife is upstairs. God! I must be self conscious! Also, I refer to the belt clip as a side handle....,just ignore it.....I'm camera shy Really, really impressed with the gun. A couple of drawbacks as you'll see in the video but this is an awesome tool and if Bosch makes my very simple suggestion it'll be even better. Someone posted on the merits of brushless the other day. Well neither of these drills are brushless and I'm quite happy with these guys. Thanks Eric and Dan. I really appreciate being here. It's been quite a few years now and it's helped me relax and even get through some rough times and quite a few of the members I consider friends. And now my Bosch tools have a new friend! Long live Tools in Action.Edit: Video to be re shot and posted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
