Here are the specs of the drills:

http://www.bosch-professional.com/gb/en/gsb-16-re-16873-ocs-p/

Note the drilling range of each model

For 300 difference, I would go with the 16. You'll never know when you need that extra muscle.

@ FiBoss, agree with joey81's comment ... as for the free 100 pcs tool set with the 13RE, you won't be using most of it so it would be better to simply buy the branded bits as you need it ... cheers

Boo!

Before buying one, you should read some reviews about it at
http://www.homedepot.com/
http://woodworkingbuddy.com/
http://www.amazon.com/
So then, you can buy a drill for your need.

Hindi po pareho Variable Speed sila.

GSB 16 RE has variable speed (Speed knob Controller sa Trigger)
Pero pareho Electronic Switch, means the harder you press the trigger and the softer you press, mas mabilis o mas mabagal yung speed.

Term lang naman yung Variable Speed Knob nila pero parang Variable Speed din hehe :p
Although mas nakakatulong din yung pag gusto mo gawin screwdriver yung drill.

Will post tom. some sample pictures if i can.

Hope you find the right drill for you.
