Cordless power drill / screwdriver

[John333]

Could anyone recommend a good cordless power drill / screwdriver that won't break the bank ..

I have spent years lugging around Bosch 24 v for nearly all drilling. Last year bought a Bosch 18 v Lithium drill and impact driver set.

Brilliant pieces of kit. Loads of power, light and quick charging.

Also remember a drill is only as good as the drill bit you are using, again I have started using the Bosch Multi Construction drill bits, cope easily with wood/tile concrete ect.

Kev.

If you are on a budget look at these "classics"
Vintage Old Rawlplug Mechanical Hammer Tool c.1930's | eBay UK
(he is talking rubbish with the 1932 model. It is late 60's early 70's)
Stanley Yankee Screwdriver 130B complete with two bits | eBay UK
Always worth a punt.

you can get some strange looks from younger tradesmen when they see you using one.

Always Milwaukee. metal gearboxes, etc etc... pay once last ages. Go for 18volt HD range.

I agree. I use Hilti at the moment always but if for some reason i couldn't get them I'd go with Milwaukee, brilliant tools. Buy cheap pay twice.

I've settled for the 'Dewatt DC729KA cordless drill driver 18 volt' which I've ordered today. Just like to thank everybody again for the excellent recommendations..
