The Makita 18-Volt X2 LXT (36-Volt) Brushless 1-1/8 in. AVT Rotary Hammer is a cordless concrete solution that’s loaded with advanced engineering for maximum efficiency. Its powered by two 18-Volt LXT batteries (sold separately) and an efficient brushless motor for maximum power, speed and run-time for corded demands, without the cord. X2 LXT technology delivers up to 140 in. x 2-3/8 in. holes per charge when using two 18-Volt LXT 5.0 Ah batteries. For reduced vibration, its equipped with Anti-Vibration Technology (AVT). More than just a padded handle, AVT is an internal counterbalance that uses air pressure to move counterweight pistons in the opposite direction of the drive piston to actively reduce vibration. In addition, the vibration-absorbing back handle and side handle further reduce vibration. The result is a low vibration rating of only 9m/s, but with no compromise in performance: The efficient brushless motor delivers a full 2.3 ft./lbs. of impact energy, with 250 RPM to 980 RPM and 0 BPM to 5,000 BPM. The torque limiting clutch is engineered to prevent gear damage by automatically disengaging the gears if the bit binds, and constant speed control automatically adds power to the motor to maintain speed under load to complete the most demanding jobs. Additional performance features include a electric brake, variable speed dial, built-in LED light, and a retractable tool hook.

It drill through concrete and asphalt very well. That’s what wanted and that is what I got. That’s all need be said.
