Combi drills are highly versatile tools, and the Bosch PSB 1800 LI-2 is no exception. With 20 pre-selectable torque levels, it makes a great multi-purpose power driver. It also has a drill mode for drilling holes into wood and plastics and an impact drill mode for drilling into more challenging materials such as masonry and steel.

The PSB 1800 LI-2 cordless combi drill – power and comfort for drilling and screwdriving operations The Bosch PSB 1800 LI-2 runs on a Bosch 18v PowerForAll lithium-ion battery, meaning it shares battery compatibility not only with other Bosch 18v Home & Garden (Green) cordless tools, but also with other tools from other manufacturers who have recently become part of the Power For All 18v Alliance One of the big power tool brands, especially in the UK, Bosch have a decent slice of the market with their two broad levels of equipment. Their “blue” professional tools and “green” DIY tools vary massively in their capabilities as well as cost. I think it’s fair to say that the PSB 1800 fits squarely in the green DIY camp.The overall feeling I got from this cordless drill is that it’s all a bit underwhelming. The design is unremarkable, and the grip isn’t the best. There are a couple of little features like the direction indicator that look good but don’t add to the performance. The drill isn’t very responsive, and the uninspiring drilling speed makes for slow work. For all handheld and stationary drills. Practical Bosch V-Line case with a clear arrangement of the contents. For a starter kit, the Bosch PSB 1800’s moderate price tag is quite reasonable. You can get to work straight away thanks to two batteries, a fast charger, and even a double-ended screwdriver bit thrown in! It’s ideally priced for anyone who wants to get into 18 Volt cordless tools and wants a reliable name on the side of them. torque settings, drill setting, 2 gears with innovative forward/reverse switch for drilling/screwdriving, impact function can be switched on separately

Very happy that new drill is identical to my old one [except it works!], so very satisfied with offer & delivery from Tooled-Up. I would highly recommend this tool as I would always advise to be equipped with middle-range products for everyday use. If you can afford and have even more use than I have go for top range. SInce the power drill acts as both a drill and driver, it’s a great addition for people looking to eliminate bulkiness that comes with a lot of tools and increasing efficiency at work. Though its an 18V rechargeable power tool, this drill/driver continuously delivers powerful speeds and power to see you through a wide range of tasks.These clever Power for All batteries can push the business end of the drill to a maximum drilling speed of 1,350 rpm. It’s not class-leading but it’s fast enough for most jobs. In hammer mode, you get a maximum of 20,250 bpm, which is the slowest of all the combi drills I’ve tested and reviewed. The 38 Newton metres of torque it puts out isn’t beating any of the bigger name brands on the list either. We have reviewed combi drills from Makita, Bosch, DeWalt and many more. We wouldn’t say that the Bosch PSB 1800 is the best drill we have ever reviewed. So remember PowerForAll signifies complete battery compatibility throughout the range. There is however, one caveat to this, some of the very first older chargers will not charge the very latest batteries & a battery charger upgrade will be required if you have a first generation charger. All batteries fit all tools however. The PSB 1800 is a fantastic combi drill for general home use but if you need a little more power then you should consider the Bosch PSB 18 LI-2. When my similar drill stopped working after much use, found this product offered ex batteries, ideal as my existing ones were fine.
