Pros and cons
✓ Pros
- Matches the corded 800 W class on impact energy and concrete capacity with no cord to manage
- Brushless motor with no carbon brushes to replace
- Four functions including screwdriving, so it covers jobs a dedicated hammer normally cannot
- Built on the widely stocked 20V platform, so batteries are shared with the same range of drills and grinders
- 5000 bpm impact rate is quick for a cordless tool, which keeps small anchor holes moving
✗ Cons
- Sold as a bare tool, so a battery and charger add to the outlay before it will run
- 2.5 J caps it at 26 mm in concrete, short of the 32 mm that dowel work needs
- Only 3 drill bits and 1 chisel included, thinner than the corded models carry
- No case listed, so storage is on you
The INGCO CRHLI20268 is our Best Cordless rotary hammer: a brushless 20V tool delivering 2.5 J and 26 mm in concrete for around ₱4,700, sold as a bare tool.
How much hammer is it?
2.5 J, 0-1100 rpm, 0-5000 bpm, drilling to 26 mm in concrete, 13 mm in steel, and 30 mm in wood through an SDS Plus chuck.
Those are the corded 800 W class numbers exactly, delivered with no cord. That is the headline: for household anchor work there is no capability penalty for going cordless at this level. The 5000 bpm impact rate is quick, which keeps a run of small anchor holes moving.
The brushless motor is the reason it manages this. There are no carbon brushes to wear out, and the efficiency gain goes straight into holes per charge.
Four functions and a work light
The CRHLI20268 drills, hammer-drills, chisels, and drives screws. That last mode is rare on a rotary hammer and useful in a tool a household might own alone, though the SDS Plus chuck means an adapter is needed for ordinary driver bits.
The LED work light sounds like filler until you are drilling into a ceiling void or under a sink, where it earns its place.
The box is thinner than the corded models: 3 drill bits and 1 chisel, with no case listed.
Is it sulit?
Around ₱4,700 as of August 16, 2026, as a bare tool. Check the latest price on Shopee.
That last part decides everything. A battery and charger have to be added before this can be compared with a corded hammer at the same price, and once they are, the corded tool is clearly cheaper for equal capability.
The calculation flips if you already own INGCO 20V tools. Their 20V line is widely stocked in the Philippines and shared across drills, grinders, and drivers, so an existing battery makes this the cheapest route to a capable cordless hammer. It is also worth comparing against the same brand’s combo kit, which bundles two 4.0 Ah batteries and a charger with a more powerful 4.5 J hammer for a little more.
Who should buy it
Buy this if you already have 20V batteries, or if you work where power is awkward and drill in scattered places rather than long sessions. See how it ranks in our best rotary hammers in the Philippines roundup, or browse more on our Home Improvement page. Our rotary hammer buying guide covers the corded and cordless trade-off.
Alternatives to consider
If you do not own 20V batteries yet, the INGCO COSLI231001 combo kit includes two 4.0 Ah batteries, a charger, and a stronger 4.5 J hammer for not much more. If a cord is no obstacle, the INGCO RGH9028 gives the same joules and capacity complete with a case and spare brushes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the price include a battery?
No. This is a bare tool, so a 20V battery and charger are a separate purchase. Add those before comparing it with corded hammers, because they change the real cost significantly. If you already own INGCO 20V tools, the batteries carry straight over and the bare tool is the cheap way in.
Is a cordless hammer really as good as a corded one?
At this level, close. The CRHLI20268 matches the corded 800 W class on impact energy and concrete capacity. What it cannot match is endurance: sustained chiselling drains a battery quickly, where a corded tool simply keeps going. For scattered holes it is better; for a long session it is not.
What does brushless actually change?
No carbon brushes to wear out and replace, more efficient use of each charge, and a motor that runs cooler. On a cordless tool the efficiency matters most, because it directly buys you more holes per battery. On a corded tool the difference is smaller.
What are the four functions?
Drilling, hammer drilling, chiselling, and screwdriving. The screwdriving mode is unusual on a rotary hammer and genuinely useful in a household tool, though the SDS Plus chuck means you need an adapter to hold ordinary driver bits.
