- Is this kit worth it over a brushed combo?
- For regular jobsite or heavy renovation work, yes: brushless motors and hammer mode are the main upgrades. For occasional home drilling, a brushed kit costs much less and does the job.
- Does the hammer drill work on concrete?
- Yes, hammer mode is meant for light masonry such as brick and small-diameter concrete holes. For sustained concrete drilling, a dedicated rotary hammer is the better tool.
- What batteries come in the box?
- Milwaukee sells this combo in several battery configurations, so check the listing for which M18 batteries and charger are included. The tools themselves are bare-tool compatible with any M18 pack.
- Are the drill and impact driver sold separately?
- Yes, both are available as bare tools or in other kits. Buying the combo usually costs less than the two tools plus a bit set bought apart.
- What is in the 50-piece SHOCKWAVE set?
- It is a mix of driver bits, drill bits and fastening accessories for common screw and anchor sizes. It covers everyday work but not specialty bits.
- When is the best time to buy?
- Milwaukee kits typically drop during holiday sales and contractor events. At $429 at The Home Depot as of November 7, 2026, it is the only new price listed, so watch for bundle promotions.

- At The Home Depot, for $429.00, as of our latest check.
