"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.


That's a big "if".


It is not a big if at all. It is equal, if not better than a Makita SDS.

Most masonry drilling is in 8mm or larger.


Most DIY is small stuff. also much pro work is that small depending on what
you do.

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.


You probably don't.


I don't.
