I gave an example of their pistol grip battery impact drill. Nothing
else is like it. A mains Makita SDS will not outdo it in brick up to
6mm.

This is hardly a reasonable comparison point.

It is.

Don't be silly. One doesn't buy an SDS drill just to make 6mm holes in
brick.

Matt, read what I wrote. "A mains Makita SDS will not outdo it in brick up
to 6mm". That tells you a lot about this baby. If you don't need to drill
larger than 6.5mm this will sail though brick. You can do larger and it
still perform very well, although not as good as an SDS above 6.5mm. I know
of no battery drill that touches it.
