The normal price seems to be $169.

Bunnings says:

Drill into concrete and brick with the RYOBI ONE+ HP™ Brushless Premium Hammer Drill. Switch the drill to hammer mode and engage the hammer action to drill holes into concrete and brick faster than your standard drill.

Control the speed to suit to your application with the 2-speed gearbox. For the standard drilling mode, the low speed has a maximum of 500RPM, while the high speed has a maximum of 2,100RPM. When using the hammer mode, the low speed impact rate has a maximum of 7,500IPM, and the high speed has a maximum of 31,500IPM.

When screwdriving, use the clutch to choose the right amount of torque to suit your task without causing damage to the screw head or the surface you’re working on. The auxiliary handle provides more control while drilling.

  • This is a better hammer drill than the one in the combo? https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/787086

      A quick Google says yes. This one's the "premium" model at 85Nm of torque, the other one is the compact with 54Nm of torque.

      Mind you, this one's probably bulkier than the compact.

      • Thanks. A follow-up question. I saw that the Hiloki impact driver has 215 Nm of torque under power mode (https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/787189). Is the difference really that big, or I'm reading the numbers wrong?

          It depends on what you need the drill for and how much money you're willing to spend.
          This Ryobi is OK for any job without stressing it too much, but for sure it's NOT a premium product!
          The Hikoki one (or similar brands) are more suitable for heavy duty and under stress situations where time costs money so a handyman can't play with an average quality tool.
          And if you need a cordless "hammer" drill, forget about the average brands.

            What would be the difference? 4Ah battery packs standard now. Just be the motor right? If your a tradie you go for tough quality tools - I hardly think AEG are tradie tools btw - more professional series of brands like dewalt, bosch, makita, milwaukee, hitachi, etc. If your pounding concrete/brick, cutting steel/timber regularly throughout the day nothing beats corded tools, or air power, or water. Except in those cases you can't get power to that location.

        • Hiloki impact driver has 215 Nm of torque

          That's because it's an impact driver, not a hammer drill. It's got 215Nm of torque and zero drilling ability…

          Do you need to drill or drive ?

  • Where does one find out the regular price?

  • If this came with a battery probably would have bought this. Didn't know the usage for an impact driver till today - had been using a drill for that purpose lol but I have little exp with diy reno besides painting

    • This is a hammer drill. It's not an impact driver 🤷🏼‍♂️

      • I know that now. I just used a drill in the past for putting furniture together etc

    Standard twist chuck. Having switched to using SDS for hammer drills I would never go back to using this type of chuck.

    • +2

      That makes no sense, how would you put a 1mm or 2mm drill bit into an SDS hammer drill ?!

      SDS is for extreme hammer function only - you need a standard twist chuck drill to do anything small and precise.

      Neither is a substitute for the other - they're for two different types of work.

      • Well durr. If you want a hammer drill (that is for masonry/concrete) then SDS is the way to go for obvious reasons (if it's not obvious google can help).

        If you want your drill to serve double duty then you put up with the problems of drilling into tougher materials like concrete with a standard chuck.

        • If you want a hammer drill (that is for masonry/concrete) then SDS is the way to go

          Totally agree.

          If you want your drill to serve double duty

          There's no double duty, I'm saying you need both types of drill.

          You use your SDS for heavy duty hammer drilling, and you use the drill in this deal for normal drilling and light duty hammer drilling.

          There's no overlap really - the choice isn't between one or the other 👍 The SDS drill and this drill are both bad at doing the other's function !

          • @Nom: If I was getting a SDS hammer drill why would I go and buy another drill like the one in this post for "light hammering"? A drill/driver would be lighter and easier to use for drilling/driving.

            When I said double duty a lot of ppl would not go out to buy a dedicated SDS rotary hammer and use 1 drill for both normal and hammer drilling. Which is fine if budget or use case is limited.If you could have both you wouldn't get 2 hammers would you?
