SDS Drill

[ian]

I have had mine for about 2 years but its now knackered. Its been a good workhorse and I have given it some abuse, only problem is the batteries. Ni-MH not so good.

For someone buying a 24v cordless for the first time and of course not being familar with battery types, which ones is the best to go for Ni- cad or Ni-Mh ? I had my eye on a nicad one(hitachi 2.0ah) and a Mi-Nh (panasoic 2.8ah) but cant decide as they use differnt types of batteries and i dont know what would be best

Nicad have well had there day. They'll work but if you plan on using the drill daily then anyone is going to benefit from Ni Mh or Li ion

I've been looking at upgrading to a 24v SDS for a while now.

Spotted this drill on the screwfix website and was wondering if people have any experience with it? Is it reliable, do the battery's last etc?

Cheers.

I have the same drill however 8 month ago paid £349.99 including vat so worth getting. Has done me well upto now batteries tend to give a good run I use it for chiseling and chasing as well as the obvious tasks.

Definatelly recommend
