Mount Prospect, Ill. -- Marcus
Dodson, associate editor, Western Roofing Magazine, published a tool
review on the Bosch LITHEON 18636-01
36V Brute Tough™ 1/2" Hammer Drill/Driver in the January/February edition
of this magazine.
“The 18636 hammer drill / driver by
itself is an outstanding tool. Dubbed part of the Brute Tough™ line,
the 18636 lives up to its name. In addition to the normal features you
would expect, its construction consists of a unibody power train, metal
reinforced collar, and Durashield™ housing. As we do with most power
tools we test, we dropped the 18636 from shoulder height with no ill effects.
This, apparently, is not much of a testy for the 18636 as Bosch claims it can
survive a one-story drop. We’ll take their word for it. With the
power, features, and solid construction of the 18636, we have no intention of
dropping a tool this great off of the roof.”
Also on the same article:
“We first tried the SlimPack. This
battery weighs less than a comparable size 14.4-volt battery. Lighter
weight on the jobsite translates into less worker fatigue and more
production.”
“The SlimPack operated the 18636 with an amazing amount of power.”
“If the SlimPack was a lion in the field then
the FatPack is Godzilla. This puppy has an astounding amount of power.”
