Everyone has long been accustomed to the fact that power tools usually work from the mains. Recently, power tools operating autonomously from stationary electrical networks have become quite widespread.
The fact is that very often during construction work there is simply no electrical outlet nearby to connect a power tool. For example, when working on the roof of a cottage, or when finishing a house, which is built on a site remote from power lines and not connected to them.
As a rule, autonomous power tools are equipped with batteries of various types, and due to the limited charge, these are rather low-power power tools: various electric screwdrivers, screwdrivers, wrenches, etc.
But as they say, technological progress does not stand still and more and more powerful tools are able to work on batteries.
Now the turn has come to punchers and we want to talk about one such model. This is a model of the ENKOR AccuMaster AKM1816 perforator 18v.
This Anchor rotary hammer is one of several power tools that come with interchangeable batteries. If you look at the price of this tool, it is much lower than even a standard mains-powered puncher. The fact is that this rotary hammer, as well as other power tools of the kit, are sold without a charger and batteries. They are purchased separately.
The rotary hammer is equipped with an 18 V battery, and the battery capacity can be higher than 4000 Ah.
This is much more than in classic screwdrivers. The ENKOR AKM1816 rotary hammer has two modes of operation. Conventional drilling and drilling with impact. At the same time, the punch chuck has the SDS-plus standard. That is, standard drills for this tool are suitable for him.
This tool has an electronic speed control of the engine, as well as a small weight - only 1.4 kg, but this is without a battery.
Of course, it is difficult to compare it with a full-fledged perforator, but nevertheless, the tool produces 800 revolutions per minute with a number of strokes of 5500. At the same time, the impact energy of the drill is 0.9 J. This is of course not enough for concrete, but for brick or other not so strong how concrete materials will fit.
Especially if you do not drill with large diameter drills. In principle, for people involved in various construction and finishing works at facilities without an electrical network, this hammer drill will serve as a real lifesaver.
