I drilled 3 holes back to back with this guy, a 6.0 battery and a 1-3/16" woodchuck bit and it destroyed the holes. I love this drill!!! I'm an electrician too btw

I personally own the previous m12 FUELGen2 kit and it's perfect for commercial electrical work. I've used the hammer drill with a 1" wide by 6"-8" long auger bit and it gets the RESIDENTIAL job done on 2x material. It surprised me! Comes In handy when roping little projects like a bathroom or a kitchen & it's super light weight. I can only imagine what the new gen3 can do! You should do more drilling Mr.Spaky Bill with auger bits and paddle bits to demonstrate it's full potential. I personally like the smell og breaking in a new Milwaukee m12 drill IDK why! Brings back good memories. 👍

@@jasonbabila6006 Yep. I carry an M12 impact and my M12 SDS is never far away. Also, the mechanism in the hammer drill that allows the chuck to move forward and back, causes slop, and only gets worse with time...Deleting these useless features would make a great streamlined, compact drill.

There's only so much you can do when you have big chonkin batteries stuck up inside the grip. I haven't felt the new one but I'd hazard to guess they're the same as the previous m12 tools, which are pretty much the same throughout the lineup. I don't find them to be obnoxiously large though. When you're drilling you tend to press more than grip, and I find the wider blackstrap of the grip distributes the pressure well. FWIW.
