Re: Cordless drills



Hi,
I've got a DeWalt 'powered' drill and it realy cuts the mustered - my only
problem now is finding drill BITS that can keep up - so yeah I rate the
DeWalt stuff. Admitedly i've not got a cordless but if I was going to get
one - it would be a DeWalt. This is over the standard Black And Decker
Stuff
(although iirc B&D and DW are the same company - just both ends of the
scale)

end of 2p worth

Not OT, because I'm ...erm...going to use the drill to make some holes for
some ..errr....HA stuff..

Anyway, After having both my cordless drills (18v el cheapo and 24v semi-el
cheapo) crap out on me today in the middle of a job, I'm looking to buy a
decent, versatile cordless replacement.

Any recommendations?  Obviously DeWalt are the handyman's favourite, but
are
they _really_ worth the extra?  Screwfix have an 18v Erbauer for £140,
which
they're selling as a pro-tool, does anyone use one of these?  Finally,
B&Q
have got this Bosch
http://www.diy.com/bq/product/product.jhtml?PRODID=63074&textLocation=top
for £95; they make good fridges, but are their drills any good?

TIA

Pete
