Makita DHP481RTJ Combi Drill 18v LXT inc 2x 5.0Ah Batteries in Makpac Type 3 Case The Makita DHP481 LXT combi drill is powered by an 18v Lithium-ion battery and the brushless motor enables up to twice the run-time of traditional motors. This two-speed drill will run up to 2,100rpm in high gear and 550rpm in low. It will deliver 31,500 impacts per minute in high gear and 8,250 impacts per minute in low gear. The 13mm single sleeve keyless chuck enables 16mm capacity in masonry, 13mm in steel and a massive 76mm in timber. Torque can be adjusted to 21 alternative settings and has a dedicated drilling mode. The DHP481 will generate 60Nm of fastening torque (soft joint) and between 115-125Nm (hard joint), the highest torque yet from the Makita 18v range. There are twin LED job lights with afterglow once the variable speed trigger is released and a new side handle configuration gives light tool control. Coupled with the soft grip ergonomic handle design positive drill-driver capability is assured. It weighs just 2.7kg, and is more compact (20mm shorter) than the previous BHP458 model. This kit comes with 2x 5.0Ah Batteries and Charger packed in a Makpac Type 3 Carry Case with Side Handle and Depth Stop.

Awesome piece of kit. Absolute beast of a drill, has an insane amount of power. The power is very controllable too with a decent trigger allowing you to vary drilling speed from very slow right up to full speed. The build quality of the drill overall is extremely high as you'd expect from Makita. The 5ah batteries are a big draw as they last ages. My only two issues with this package are the box, which is far bigger than necessary, yet doesn't really keep the items that neatly packaged inside, and the charger, which has no ability to by mounted on a wall like most do. Other than that this is a great kit and you wont regret buying the top of the line Makita cordless.

I have been dying to get this drill for ages but as it's only for the odd bit of d.i.y I couldn't bring myself to pay so much for it until I saw it on this website for a bargain price. Anyway, now that I finally have it I'm definitely glad I bought it. The drill is an absolute beast and with two 5ah batteries you should never run out of juice. I've had it a week or so doing various jobs around the house and the first battery is still going strong. Very pleased with my purchase and a quick delivery too. Thanks
