[@ScottB-k7v]

Dude - your method for battery tab depression for non-burley hands is something I'll remember. Keep up the good work, the world gets smarter one You-Tube-University video at a time.

Glad to hear the tip was helpful! I come up with a good idea every once in a while. Thanks for watching.

Very thorough review, thanks for the time you took to review this very useful tool.

[@deerparkhomeshop2471]

I appreciate the kind words and thanks for watching.

[@generac43]

Just bought this and wasn't sure about keeping it. After watching your video I decided to keep it. Excellent review.

[@deerparkhomeshop2471]

Thank you! I'm glad it helped.

[@stephensipe6602]

thanks for the great advice!

[@deerparkhomeshop2471]

You're so welcome! Hope the video was helpful.

[@scottbenson8105]

thanks for this review I was just looking at this tool because I'm going to buy a kitchen island and putting it together myself I wanted a versatile drill and I knew Bosch is a good brand and I was happy to see this video from someone like you and now I know this is just the tool for me

[@deerparkhomeshop2471]

This is my second Bosch angle drill. I lost the first one on a job and went out and bought another one. Very handy. Thanks for contacting me.

[@broodjebeeld]

Very good and thorough review. Thanks a lot.

I need a drill to get into truck exhaust bolts to drill and EZ out...seems to work for that I would think...I use liquid dish soap to lube lag bolts...just wipes off.

[@deerparkhomeshop2471]

Hello Sheldon. Great idea using the liquid soap. Back in the day screw lubes weren't so available, so we would rub wood screws with bar soap for lubrication and it worked! Thanks for watching and for your comment.

[@johnparkerzabala]

Very much obliged Sir Will it hold a short bit? Stay blessed

[@deerparkhomeshop2471]

Yes it will. It's a standard chuck so it's just a little trickier than using the longer bits.

[@outdoortechtrekguy1029]

Great review thank you sir

[@deerparkhomeshop2471]

I appreciate that! Thank you for taking the time to watch.

[@mrbigcat9]

You reviewed this angle drill and did not mention if it is a brushed or brushless tool?

[@deerparkhomeshop2471]

No, it's not brushless, and I didn't even think about that when I made the video. Thanks for your comment.

[@sfgwl]

I've searched the Bosch website and the manual for the brushed vs brushless motor specification but came back without an answer; Lowes indicates it lacks the brushless feature but it would be nice if the manual at least mentioned the brushes. Is brushed the default conclusion when they don't mention brushless?

[@Nippl3Crippl3]

HI Mate , the problem your having with bits loosening and dropping out is a simple solution that the should tell you. The trick is you chuck your bit then give it a few clicks as normal then you give it one turn back, that will lock it in place. try it out. most chuckless have this hidden feature.

[@deerparkhomeshop2471]

Well, you learn something every day. I've never heard of this, but I am anxious to give it a try. Thanks so much for the heads up!

[@cicerofigueiredo2139]

Importei uma recentemente pois no Brasil não tinha esse modelo está me sendo muito útil.

[@deerparkhomeshop2471]

O Brasil é 220 / 240 volt para a corrente da casa? Perguntava-me se faziam tal modelo. Obrigado pelo seu comentário.

[@jimgrey393]

Thanks

[@deerparkhomeshop2471]

I'm sorry I missed your comment last week. Thanks for watching.

[@anonymouse-original]

Mine came without any drill bits. Is that normal?

[@deerparkhomeshop2471]

As I remember it just came with a charger and a battery. I also bought a Bosch drill/impact combo and that didn't come with bits either.

[@anonymouse-original]

@@deerparkhomeshop2471 - Thanks! Mine came with battery, charger, and two screw driver bits. I didn't realize the drills were sold separately!

[@deerparkhomeshop2471]

I forgot about the two drill bits. Usually if they give you extras they make sure to let you know how good they are being to you. Just bought a Dremel multi tool and they have pictures of all the extra stuff on the front of the box.

[@anonymouse-original]

@@deerparkhomeshop2471- I may have to return it. The part when you can bend it up to 90 degrees does not seem to lock place. I'm not sure if I am doing something wrong, but it doesn't seem like it should be able to move without a way to lock the angle.

[@deerparkhomeshop2471]

When you push in the button it will release the chuck to move that 90 deg. When you release the button it should lock into place. If its not doing that its probably defective.@@anonymouse-original

A GWI é mais potente, so que usa brocas sextavadas. 3:15

[@deerparkhomeshop2471]

Please elaborate. I am not sure what GWI is. Is this a brand of drill in your home country? I used Google translator and I suspect what they translated is not what you actually said.

[@perfecthouse4270]

mine not working with full battery after a few uses.

[@deerparkhomeshop2471]

Mine is a workhorse. Can you still return yours? It's probably defective.

[@perfecthouse4270]

@@deerparkhomeshop2471 No. It's an end-of-year gift from employer. Anyway, I will ask if any neighbors can make usage of the battery which seems good.

[@deerparkhomeshop2471]

@@perfecthouse4270 That's a shame. You may already know this, but the battery & charger work with all of their 12v compact tools. If you ever plan on buying any of their other tools, it would give you a spare battery.
