Milwaukee M18 Hole Hawg v M18 Super Hawg

[J.C.E]

Looking for a new tool for joist drilling- I have killed 2x GSB18VE-2-Li 18V in past few years!!

Looking into a milwaukee hole hawg with 9ah battery

anyone got one?

No. But if it's any use. I got through several crappy 90 degree attachments which kept breaking, before I found this one. It doesn't look like much, but it's head and shoulders above the rest in performance. Oddly it seems to be maybe unavailable now in UK, - but I spent no time looking. https://www.amazon.com/Milwaukee-49-22-8510-Right-Angle-Attachment/dp/B000BYEJ02

Looks like another pointless American tool. It's too big to be used as an angle drill, and there are going to be many Combi Drill's about that are vastly superior

Impact driver with screw end flat bit - controlled and accurate - doesn’t need any pressure on it, it just pulls its way through. I wouldn’t use a drill anymore, ridiculous amount of self energy needed.
Ear foams for the noise and onward you go. Goes through big oak and easy pine.

I used a 10.8v Bosch for 1 1/2 years and it’s still going strong. The 18v has taken over and I still believe in using it for holes in joists. I’ve introduced many other sparks to it and have got a few out of a tricky situation (last of space etc)
Member Joe introduced me to it - revelation I tell you.

It’s ON - you bring the soft drinks and I’ll bring the victory cup! You’ll be pleasantly surprised. A revelation I tell you!
Edit- especially when I’m holding the body of the impact with 2 fingers and not worrying about snapped wrists or crushed fingers!

I have one and they are awesome. Much better than an impact driver set up. The Milwaukee bits are worth using too.
