Makita BHR241 Rotary HammerIncluded items: BHR241, handle, depth gauge and manual.It is a light, strong, fairly priced piece of machinary. Drilling through concrete, brick or granite counter tops is effortless with this drill. It is comparable to a corded rotary hammer. It weights in at around 9 lbs with battery and can be used one handed for drilling. Built in torque limiter clutch is a great safety feautre. Selector switch has a neutral position that when with a demo bit, you can rotate the bit to desired position without moving the tool around and feel uncomfortable. Its on the cheaper end compared to other brands like Milwaukee.The cons on this are, its long. At nearly 17" in length, its long and isn't the best when under tight spaces. There is no LED ... MoreMakita BHR241 Rotary HammerIncluded items: BHR241, handle, depth gauge and manual.It is a light, strong, fairly priced piece of machinary.

There is no LED light which is a bummer because that would make working the dark a lot better. The last thing is that only the 3.0 amp/hr batteries work. You cannot use a 1.5 amp/hr, small 18v battery on it. It will not fit.Overall, I used this tool when there is not electrical outlet or just want no cords at all. But with the cons, I can't give it a perfect rating.**** 4/5 stars.

Doing a big job myself (as tradesman let me down). I needed walls drilled though and although my corded sds drill was fine this is up ladders ( cctv system) and i couldnt be bothered with extension leads dangling..and as project muggins was saving money.... This unit seemed to offer the most impact force for my buck. Unreviewed but other makita machines rated highly and i have all the batteries. Look its a nice machine and i dont regret buying it- but no way does it have the grunt of my corded machine. Putting a new 25mm bit through a gable end it slowed down to almost stopping. Im not used to making pilot holes. I thought it would stall and not the impact force of my corded one either. Its quicker and easier than dragging a lead around but the loss of the cord does ... MoreDoing a big job myself (as tradesman let me down).

Its quicker and easier than dragging a lead around but the loss of the cord does drop its power. Say a 10mm bit i wouldnt notice but my other machine could put a big 600mm long 20mm bit through anything with no hint of slowing. Sorry makita close but no cigar.

Does the trick. Powerful enough for any work. Get the extra battery.
