Bosch PS130-2A Hammer Drill Driver

One of the new cordless tools we’ve been most pumped-up about is Bosch’s 12V compact hammer drill driver. We’ve just learned that the hammer drill, announced in Europe late last year as the GSB 10.8-2-LI Combi-Hammer, will soon be released in the USA as the 12V Max PS130-2A.

As mentioned in our preview of the EU-version, the PS130/Combi-Hammer drill driver is said to be the lightest and shortest in its class. This sounds impressive, but the message is softened once you remember that there’s only one classmate – the Milwaukee M12 hammer drill. Even so, we were quite impressed with the PS21 and PS31 drill/drivers that we reviewed some time ago, and have very high expectations for the PS130.
