There's a black and decker drill on there that's 150e at the moment.
Wonder what it'll come down to.

Welll.... it was only £65 last year according to camelcamelcamel, so knowing the lightning deals, I'd say £75

It's only a 10v... you might use it to attach jelly to custard, but I don't think it would be capable of real work.

Li-ion, so the power delivery is different. Would be near enough a 14volt nicad battery.

A fool and its money are easily parted.

Go to a B&Q sale or any decent builders providers and you will get better more powerfull screwguns/drills for less money.

I'm so sick of batteries crapping out on my, the early nicad ones lasted 5 years no problem, now its 1-3 years tops. I'm thinking of getting one of these instead.

Go have a looksie.....as there is always good deal to be had each weekend..;)


I picked a Mac 2 speed 18v cordless screw gun/drill 12 months ago......comes carry case,2 lithium batteries and a 5 piece drill bit set.

Was 100 euro and I got it for 50 euro.
Charges dead battery to full in 40 minutes.
Ive seriously abused it and its a great cordless for the money.


B&Q also sell JCB,Ryobi,Makita and Bosch screwguns/drills off for well under 100 euro on a regular basis.

Lots of them on sale in B&Q Airside at the moment...big clearence event.;):)






Builders Providers.......Grange,Smiths,Chadwicks,Heiton Buckleys,Newtown,TJ O'Mahonies,PH Ross and many more.
