Metabo Ltx
We used Metabos new 4.0 AH battery which gave us brushless like runtime.
The SB 18 LTX lays down some good solid smooth power. We used our 1″
auger on some tree trunks and the drill had no issues going through on
speed 1. In speed 2 through the same material we experienced the
overload protection which was expected. For precise drilling through
metal the chuck was straight and drilled a precise hole each and every
time. For driving, the tool has a 7 setting clutch that works with both
speeds providing greater control over your work. The trigger is
responsive and the brake stops the chuck from spinning the instant you
release the trigger. The balance is good and the grip is comfortable.
The over-sized speed control switch is on both sides of the tool and
the clutch settings are on top in a slider configuration with detents.
The hammer/drill mode is at the head of the tool. Hammer mode puts out
28000 BPM. One thing we liked when drilling through concrete was that
there was minimal vibration transferred to our hands. The tool absorbed
it. Speed one produces 0-400 rpm and speed 2 0-1400. The SB 18 LTX
puts out an insane 885 in-lbs of torque. A base mounted LED light
illuminates your work area and is pressure activated from the switch.
