Makita DHR165 18v LXT Cordless SDS Plus Hammer Drill
The Makita DHR165 is a compact 18V cordless SDS Plus rotary hammer drill engineered for drilling into concrete, masonry, steel and wood. Part of the trusted Makita LXT system, this versatile drill features eXtreme Protection Technology to guard against dust and moisture ingress, making it suitable for demanding jobsite conditions. The dual-mode operation allows tradespeople to switch between rotary hammer drilling and rotary-only mode, providing flexibility for different materials and applications.
With a 16mm capacity in concrete, 13mm in steel and 24mm in wood, the DHR165 delivers 1.3 joules of impact energy at up to 5,300 blows per minute. The integrated LED worklight with afterglow function ensures visibility in dimly lit areas, whilst the one-touch slide chuck enables quick SDS Plus bit changes without additional tools. At just 2.3-3.0kg, this cordless hammer drill offers excellent manoeuvrability for overhead work and confined spaces.
Safety features include an electric brake for rapid bit stoppage and a torque limiter to protect the user if the bit binds. The variable speed trigger provides precise control, whilst the conveniently positioned forward and reverse button allows for quick direction changes. Supplied with a Makpak Connector Case (Type 3), side handle and depth stop, this body-only package is ideal for contractors already invested in the Makita 18V LXT battery platform.

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.
