Is DeWALT'S Xtreme SDS a REAL Rotary Hammer? 

I remember Vincent talking about how important weight gets when you get older - oh - he was so right about that. One thing I like about this is that if you are not needing the extra power, that reduced weight is a big deal.

I use this 9/16 every day for setting 3/16 and 1/4" tapcons to hang TVs on exterior walls, and also 1/4" holes for garage shelving. its light and quiet very easy to control one handed. Usually, one 12v 5ah battery lasts all day long.

I'm already in the 12v dewalt line and will definitely be adding this for installing tapcons on a ladder. Way better than having the corded or even a larger cordless sds for that task specifically.

These are amazing for tap cons. Drills much tighter holes. I rarely need filler when I drill with this versus my bigger SDS

DeWalt did a great job on this one! If I were on the DeWalt platform, I’d buy it! Thanks for the info! Great job! 👍🏻

I actually grabbed a display model at Lowe's for $35 and I will be honest. For smaller stuff I have been impressed. Definitely has it place in my tool truck

They should make power stack in 12v.

Wouldn't mind a mikwaukee v DeWalt 12v tests

How about putting it VS the M12 Fuel one?

Thanks man, I just ordered the 20V ! I’m excited lol

It’s like Makita’s 12 volt hammer drill but with no anti vibe functions. Cool little tool does the job well.

Looks like the 5.0 battery would be better for it. This would be a handy little tool for setting anchors especially over the head work.

Good addition to the 12v mustard crew. I will say this, I feel like my M12 Fuel 5/8” SDS moves through noticeably quicker. Maybe it’s just me.

Was literally thinking of copping the other day !

Hahahahah, LOVE ❤️ the thumbnail! It's the same look I have on my face when looking at "promo" banners these days.

Pretty impressive for a small drill.

I don't get it, why would you need DCH072 when you can buy DCH172, which has more impact force, has shock absorbtion, and is almost the same weight. I own a DCH172 and I don't know how it is made, but it seems stronger than 1,4J

For a couple of drill holes for the christmass decoration once the year it looks to me.

I abuse the heck out of my M12 rotary hammer, I was once drilling a two and a half inch hole to run a new line set for an HVAC unit with a corded Hammer that died, and I finished the hole all 7 in of it with the M12

It's a fantastic SDS for putting shelves/TV bracket up, it drills really clean holes. I no longer use my 20v SDS anymore

I think the compact tools will handle most any job as the full size lineups but it’ll take longer and the tool will burn up quicker. Use the right tool for the job Edit: forgot to say - Great video Vince, thanks for the great content of late

Has the 12v line been discontinued? They don’t seem to be adding to it, and they’re difficult to get in Australia.

Little thing got some power Vince

It looks pretty good. Dewalt is really going extreme with that line. 😅

Hey Vince, it’s been a couple of years now but was wondering if Craftsman ever got that US plant up and running making Made in USA tools? Has Craftsman ever reached out to VCG to tour any of the facilities? Perhaps you could make a video or even a series on it. I check Lowes almost every week and thus far have not found a ratchet, socket, wrench made in USA. I even checked Craftsman site and all the pictures of the factories just look like packing facilities no lathes, mills, forges, presses or power hammers.

Looks ideal for mobile maintenance crews

👍👍👍 another impressive one VCG! But is it the drill that's impressive or the Diablo bits🤔 maybe both, or possibly the technique of the smooth operator😜

Usually grab this over my 20v sds. Works great 👍

Pretty impressive, especially using that 2ah battery

I wanna see a 12v angle grinder

I'd love to see that drill compared to other brands, especially Hilte.

The rebar demon looks as mean as it sounds

Milwuakee 12V rotary has been so useful. Anyone who can should have a 12V rotary hammer. Jobs that require hammer drill up to 3/8" will be a cakewalk with this type of tool.

So apart from the battery draining faster than an angle grinder, It worked top notch.

Why would you use the smallest battery on the biggest tools? Would you run a pick up truck with a motorcycle battery?

Vs m12 fuel?

Vince, I live in the Caribbean where we have concrete houses NO DRYWALL, which do you prefer for concrete, DCD805 or the DCH072? I'm not a builder by far, however I'd like to do some small projects from time to time.

Can’t make a bloody 9/16 hole I was mad thinking this was gonna be good

I have one and it has served me well.

Just because you can doesn’t mean you should was my main saying raising my two boys and now my grandchildren 👏🏻

i dont understand the world of sds. and need to be educated on it... this tool seems like a smaller and lighter one so i guess my main question here is does that extra lightness actually give the user more control and accuracy for those smaller jobs. without holding up a heavier sds that might wander about or be off center. then you realize and try to correct the angle halfway thru drilling, and cause a blow out etc. thing is before i was just thinking we need a) 12v light drill for delicate work + b) 18v hammer drill (for harder work, including light masonary such as this)... + c) a very large sds for heavy masonry work. including chiseling / demo work. so my question really seem more around is there a place for this tooll within that lineup between b) and c) ? ie to help save the chuck on the b) 18v main drill and keep it from getting messed up doing these masonry jobs? as i think for myself it is a bit of stretch to justify a total of 4 different drills to cover everything. (unless some of those drills were cheaper corded tools like the biggest sds for example)

Id like to see what you guys think ab the milwaukee 12v fuel one i own it and i love it

So,I have a bunch of dcb201 batteries and I was wondering if, through modifying or similar, they could/should be used with this rotary hammer.

This have the chip hammer function too?

Late comment bt does it come w a more efficient HEPA vacuum attachment? Please let me know! #VCGConstruction #VeryCoolGang

Bro is there 18 or 20 big drill in the same design

@vcgconstruction Which do you prefer the atomic SDS or the 12V?

Nice toy Thanks much Vince

do a versus with this 12v vs milwaukee 12 sds plus

Ok how does this compare to the power detect hammer drill dcd998?

7 Years of good luck. 😂😂

That thing pretty cool.

"...Maybe you got a bigger you got a bigger anchor 🤡"💀

I'll stick to my 996 for small application.

If you only have a few holes here and there I'm sure this would treat you well but doesn't seem to have the power to be used all day everyday. I'll stick with hilti

Little Beast 💪🏻

How well does it work at chipping concrete?

watched you for years.. milwaukee was your spank bank!

Just purchased one

Really impressed and didn’t want to be. Could definitely use one handed on a ladder.

Do the M12’s SDS vs DeWalts

Time lapse clock would be nice with clock

Seems about as fast as the 997 lol

In my opinion here's why this tool is actual garbage. it's light/small subcompact enough to where your arm is not stressed as much as a compact rotary but the moment you're using this enough to warrant a rotary hammer vs a regular hammer drill the wear on the tool is too much to warrant the cost increase (smaller components means thermal, shock, and friction forces) So it's too light to be a proper trade tool in its role and unnecessarily expensive over the regular hammer drill.

Great video

I use a 5 amp on mine. Greàt tool

Doesn't look any better than my 18v Bosch Professional hammer drill... just a larger chuck I spose...

That was not that much use for the drill to run the battery out....

Love it!

I hit the like button, then I stubbed my toe, so does this mean I didn'tget seven years of good luck

I think if you're going to buy a rotary hammer, you should get one a little bigger, or at the very least get some bigger batteries

The DCH133 is much cheaper (It used to be only $159 for tool only at Home Depot, now $229) and much more powerful. It somewhat awkward to use because how long it is, but it works really well and with a 6Ah battery will last for hours of work. I personally don't see much use for this. For smaller tasks, DCD805 Hammer Drill works well enough.

Yes man

😮 wow

My dcf999 is more of a rotary hammer I think....

Has to be 18 v for me 12 v too small and Makita

Like pop a 20v 6amp in that sucker

not bad.

Two batteries for one hole🤨🥴😵🥺😫

No chisel function that's not good

No surprises here. I'll take the milaukee.

Taco Bell delivers atomic blasts of an altogether deadly sort. Yaweh, hear our cry for blood atonement...and a bean burrito.

The point is not how well the bear dances, it’s whether it dances at all. Go Milwaukee.

Vince saying something good about dewalt 🤔 something is wrong here

I can’t justify spending the money on a rotary hammer that is only good for setting anchors when my dcd999b can do this job and then some… this tool is nothing but dead weight to me..

Bought time you did a real tool and not red

Had a Dewalt, chinese made crap compared to German made Bosch.

🎉🎉🎉🚬🚬🚬

Milwaukee better 🤷‍♂️

My started smoking mate

First

Wow that is really pathetic a terrible tool

finally a video from u I liked no acting cool just showed the tool and worked it outside the recommended boundaries. Thanks Do chicks actually dig on you..

I notice mine doesn’t start out drilling like that at first. Takes a bit to go full drill. Any idea?

Nice black and decker

Perfekt machina.

I'll stick to my 996 for small application.
