looking at a new milwaukee catalogue here in the uk ive spotted they have 2 new m18 fuel sds drills coming out very soon.
the attached picture is ther drill M18 CHPX-402C has 4.3 joules of impact energy which makes it a very very powerful tool compared to almost every other cordless sds drill (apart from the hilti big mother)
heres a link to the uk catalogue
milwaukee are really spoiling us.
heres the page from the catalogue
USA would really appreciate this! Didn’t buy the regular m18 hammer drill because I’m still waiting for this to arrive in the states
This looks really cool I wish I did more concrete work to justify having it. I will still probably end up getting it at some point my power tool addiction does get to me eventually. I really like how they designed the 4.0ah packs over seas the ones we get only have a little 4.0 on the side.
Hey I almost bought the brushed m18a while back but ended up with the fuel m12. Glad I did since fuel is the way to go. Weird there’s 2 m18 fuel versions
DR I feel just how u feel man I don’t need it but I’m probably still gonna buy it to have it just in case…;)
I can sorta justify buying one, as I frequently need to drill holes in sidewalks to set control points or stake new (refurbed) curb.
I have the 2612-20 M18 5/8 SD Rotary and with a 4.0 battery I have used this thing all day with out a battery change. Drilled about 90 anchor holes for a pool cover. The fuel will give you more run time but do you really need it and is it worth the extra bucks. I think I would buy the non fuel when the Fuel model comes out because deal will be had.
