Makita Drill Models..

New here.. I just purchased a Makita BHP452 but noticed some other models (links follow)


makita.com/en-us/Modules/Tools/ToolDetails.aspx?Name=BHP452
makita.com/en-us/Modules/Tools/ToolDetails.aspx?Name=BHP454
makita.com/en-us/Modules/Tools/ToolDetails.aspx?Name=BHP451


Besides the handle and the 451 having 3 gears, are there any other significant differences between the three of these hammer-drills?

Thanks in advance..

Re: Makita Drill Models..

I was at a tool show and asked the Rep about this. The BHP452 has a little less torque than the BHP451 or BHP454. He said the 451 is slowly being sold out and the 454 is taking over as the main hammer drill. So, it seems there is no major differences.

Thats unfortunate considering that I just ordered the 52 (for a cheaper price, mind you). Thanks a lot for the answers
