Has anyone had any experience of the two different voltages in professional drills?
I have an aging 18v but need to replace it with a high quality professional drill- I favour the MXT range of Makita drills, but also like Bosch, and maybe DeWalt. The newer 14.4v ranger generate huge torque- with less than 10nm between some of the 14.4v and 18v models.
Has anyone any practical experience, ie. how do they differ in reality and in use? Are the advances in 14.4v batteries enough to equal 18v models from a few years ago? And what does that extra torque actually mean in use?
Any grounded advice and guidance would be appreciated....
