The DeWalt is a bit faster drilling but really they're similar enough that I'd use either one and let the other tools I need decide if I'm grabbing Makita or DeWalt that day
How much run out/chuck wobble is to be expected, especially on a smaller Bosch model? Mine seems to have a little wobble straight out of the box but I’m told by Bosch it’s normal, and other reviews I’ve read also say Bosch told them the same thing, it’s normal...
A bit is normal for sure; it's got some room in the chuck for the bit to slide. But normally it's only a problem at the surface before the bit gets in and becomes centred by the rotation. The amount of wobble I saw here only should be a problem if doing small holes like 5mm, then it can wear down the sides a bit. Deeper in it should be ok
As a matter of fact I almost bought one yesterday! Just waiting for it to come on sale. And yeah Cheers, there's a lot to these hammers and I'm trying to understand myself and help demystify them for everyone. Glad you like it!
Hi new subscriber here. Which one drills faster or powerful the dcd996 or dch172? I have 996 already and planning to buy 172. Btw, great video. Thank you
Frothers! The WOBBLE wasn't the drill after all!

Glad you found it, thanks for the update!!
It’s a little beast of a drill I don’t think I’ll ever use my combi drill again
Nice video, can you also do the run test for the DCH072NT-XJ?
A comparison with powerstack battery would be interesting 🤔

Compared to the Makita DHR 171, which one do you choose for anchor installation?

@@BoltahDownunder thanks
Are you also going to do the Dewalt dch273?
Yeah some day I will. I'll have to buy one first though, and I've got many other hammers in my collection to cover first
Is it superior in performance to the Bosch GBH18V-21??? and the makita dhr171?
-no
-about the same
Will you try the DCH273?
Yeah some day I will. I'll have to buy one first though, and I've got many other hammers in my collection to cover first

Should start testing some hikoki. Love your channel btw, rotary hammers seem to get less love on youtube.
