Makita DHP492 18v LXT Cordless Combi Drill
The Makita DHP492 18v LXT Cordless Combi Drill is a professional-grade brushless combi drill designed for demanding drilling and screwdriving applications across multiple materials. Delivering a maximum torque of 141Nm with 21 precision torque settings, this versatile tool handles everything from delicate screwdriving tasks to heavy-duty drilling in wood, steel, and masonry.
Built around a powerful brushless motor, the DHP492 offers exceptional performance with its dual-speed gearbox (0–550/0–2100rpm) and impact mode delivering up to 31,500bpm. This makes it ideal for carpenters, electricians, and general contractors tackling diverse jobsite challenges. The drill handles masonry drilling up to 16mm, steel up to 13mm, and wood drilling with auger bits up to 50mm or self-feed bits up to 76mm, whilst the 152mm hole saw capacity enables large-diameter cuts.
The 1.5–13mm keyless chuck ensures quick, secure bit changes, whilst the compact, lightweight design at just 1.7kg body-only reduces operator fatigue during prolonged use. Professional features include an integrated LED work-light for improved visibility, electric brake for enhanced safety and productivity, plus battery protection and electronic overload protection systems to safeguard both user and tool during demanding applications.

Battery AH Explained
The best way to describe battery amp hour is that this is effectively the size of your fuel tank, the more amp hours your battery has then the longer the battery will last between charges. More amp hours does not increase the power of a given tool.
Battery Voltage Explained
A tool with a higher voltage than another is a bit like choosing an engine in a car, the higher voltage will generally mean higher power & performance. As with cars though a bigger engine does not always translate to better performance so it is important to compare the specifications of tools at different voltages between different manufacturers.
