    Nice find OP.

    FYI:
    Max. Torque: 40Nm
    Drilling Capacities:
    32mm (Timber)
    10mm (Masonry)
    13mm (Metal)

    Don't bother if using the hammer drill function, good as normal drill but not for hard surfaces. Had to upgrade to the rotary hammer drill (more expensive) but so damn good.

    This deal is good however if you want a cheap decent drill that can be good for flatpacks as well. Though even then I would say the impact driver is better as has the power for gym stations etc

    • Jackson on 10/08/2023 - 23:34

      Will get you out of trouble if you want to put a hole into brick or render, don't expect to be making lots of holes in reinforced concrete and you should be OK. The hammer function is more of a bonus. Might be OK for some people who already have big batteries, mine is only 1.5ah and I can make some small holes in concrete, if you had a 4ah could be OK. Also bits for 13mm chucks are much, much cheaper than sds bits, you can get a whole set for the price of one. Start with a small bit and finish with a bigger one.

      Is this in response to Aldi sale?

        I've got to agree with Savvy. I love my Ozito PXC stuff as generally they're great value but I couldn't use the hammer function on this drill to put even 1 hole in brick to mount a garden hose reel.

        I bought the Oztio rotary and it chewed through it like butter.

        Both good drills, just for different purposes.

      • adpaholic on 17/08/2023 - 23:10

        3.0ah battery really will make this drill stronger than using 1.5ah?

        • Jackson on 17/08/2023 - 23:52

          The drill can, when drawing maximum current, potentially bottom out a small battery. I only have 1.5Ah batteries for my hammer drill, but I have 2, 3 and 4 for my impact wrench and there's definitely big differences between the 2 and even the 3 under high load. It will also mean you can drill for longer, and because this will be quite slow that matters.

        • Duff5000 on 18/08/2023 - 21:56
          +1

          It isn't really the capacity that's the problem.

          Cordless tool batteries often come with capacities like 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5 (Amp hours).

          Going from say a 2ah to a 2.5ah you would think would similar to going from a 2.5ah to a 3ah. It isn't though.

          Internally 1.5, 2 and 2.5 are 5 cells in series. The capacity of the cells just gets higher as you go along.

          The 3, 4 and 5 Ah batteries are actually 10 cells. Basically 2 banks of the same 5 cells the smaller batteries were made of. Being 2 banks in parallel means you can draw more current in total, more current means more power.

            simply due to the fact they have 3-5 yrs no quibble warranty… you break it, you get a replacement no questions

            i watched a few of the guys i use construct a kitchen with ozitos… how hard do you think the tools are going to get hammered on a normal kitchen

            and this is obviously a 5 fig plus job

            for this kind of thing i doubt an AEG or DeWalt is going to do better

                @resisting the urge: These cheap drills are perfect for things like kitchens. They are also lighter to work with good for one hand in awkward position. Bunnings is everywhere.

                I don't know a tradie who hasn't had tools go missing on a site or even at the supermarket when stopping in the way home. The great thing about these cheap tools is they are cheap to replace and all the accessories like battery chargers are super cheap. You end up owning the a few more expensive tools and heap of cheaper tools.

                If your drilling concrete or metal I honestly prefer the older plugin drills they have so much more torque and don't chew through batteries like the cordless but maybe I'm just an old fart now.

                Seeing far fewer trades with all one series of tools now. Often tools for odd jobs are all cheaper Ryobi or ozito.

              @doobey1231: That's an advantage of the hammer drill. What I am getting at is that even if the hammer drill component is supposedly useless, you can just ignore that and not use it and it's still works out cheaper than the non-hammer drill.

    • outlander on 11/08/2023 - 12:35

      Agreed. These are more for either drilling into mortar, or cement blocks. If you try and use it on hard fired clay bricks, you're in for a world of frustration.

      That said, even in brick they can be handy for small holes (<5mm wide). Like if you just want to hang a photo

    • Vinnie Vegas on 11/08/2023 - 15:29

      I successfully installed a mailbox onto red brick with mine, but it was a struggle. I think that's probably about the limit of what it could accomplish - smallish holes of minimal depth.

      Doubt it would've even gotten that job done without the hammer function though.

      i have a few brushless ones from a few companies

      they are heavier, and the motor feels stronger smoother and they have high torque but a lot of times i'm not needing that much?

      i think if brushless if a few bucks more, go for it

      but i always have weak shit ones around for the smaller jobs.

                @rooster7777: @rooster7777 anecdotal evidence is not really useful when it comes to mass produced products like this, its a single persons experience with a single set of tools.

If you want to be especially picky, neither are really valid because they are just recounts from random people. But like I said given the context I am going to continue trusting my resource over one individual that i know nothing about.

                Like I said, happy for you that your tools have lasted that long. Thats about all the acknowledgement your comment is worth, feel free to do more research on the subject, plenty of articles and studies have been done that backs up my point.

                  @doobey1231: The only engineering difference between comparable brushed and brushless tools is…one has brushes and is direct DC powered. Brushless inverts the DC battery power to AC, and operates with an ESC instead of brushes, producing more effective power.

                  Brushless technology costs more to manufacture, but has its power and electrical efficiency benefits. I couldn't be stuffed looking, but if ozito have brushed and brushless tools of similar quality materials, one will have more power, but there will be no benefits in longevity.

                  However, all manufactured products are NOT comparable… different prices relate to different quality standards of bearings, switches, casings, gearboxes etc etc. A prime example being Ozito vs say milwaukee. The difference between many models in these brands is NOT whether one is brushless or brushed. I have some milwaukee brushed drills and drivers that have had steady, sometimes hard use, for more than a decade.

                  The only failure I've had is an impact hammer/ anvil assembly….NOT the brushed motor. I bought these tools before brushless milwaukee tools were available - so their longevity is significant.

                  Feel free to give me the benefit of your solely researched knowledge of toolery which appears to lack CDF…. and your snarky "happy for you". I have no more words to waste with you.

                  Also anecdotally the only one of my cordless drills I have had fail over years is a brushless aldi one.

                  Imo the average home user isn't going to wear out the brushes on a drill.

                  Brushless do tend to be smaller, lighter and more efficient meaning longer run time per charge. Personal preference weather that matters for a drill. Imo it doesn't. High drain tools like a saw then yeah I'd try and go brushless. I rarely run a battery flat drilling, I run them flat all the time with my brushed recip.

You are both trying to argue against a pretty well established fact, neither of you have provided anything other than your own experience and like I said to the previous commenter, Anecdotal evidence doesn't mean anything, I dunno why you would bother mentioning it right after you asked for sources to studies, does not make sense to me in the slightest.

                      I didn't argue against anything (other than your claim of there being studies). Your article largely agrees with what I said. Go back and read my reply, do you actually disagree with anything I wrote?

                      Why would I mention my only dead drill being brushless? Because it's relevant to the topic being discussed clearly. You didn't provide any better data, just an opinion piece that says "If we are searching for a drill to use rarely or for a specific work, then it is better to go for brushed drills".

                      I'm not claiming people should or shouldn't get brushless, I have both. It really depends on the user and the use case.

      Drilling screws into a plasterboard will be fine with most drills. This one will be fine too as you can choose to turn on or off the hammer function. However for hanging a tv, you should look for the timber studs or brickwork behind the plasterboard to anchor it.

    My Ryobi one+ drill is hopeless with 2mm/3mm drill bits.
    Borrowed my Dad's Ozito 18v cordless drill when pre drilling floor trim, prior to nailing.
    Lightweight, better chuck for smaller drill bits, was perfect for the job.

    I wouldn't dismiss this Ozito. (Caveat, not sure of exact Ozito drill model, but it's a few years old and 18v) (can't imagine they've changed too much in a few years)

    I bought this yesterday and used it today with a 4 amp battery. It's pretty good, not as powerful as my mate's Ryobi but good enough.

    I had no issues drilling holes into tree stumps. The hammer mode made this much faster. It gets pretty warm and the vents are located right where I like to put my hand.

    Silly question but this come with any drill bits. Or anyone recommended a set to go with it for Basic DIY

      This doesn't comes with drill bits

      Confirm it doesnt come with any, or a battery/charger. For DIY I would suggest a set of Frost metric HSS bits. might be around $50 bucks but you then only need to replace them individually as needed
