An email from screwfix today took me to this offer.

DeWalt DC733KA Builders Twin Pack 2kg SDS Plus Drill & 14.4V Drill Driver

As I was looking for an SDS drill anyway, I've bought it thinking I can sell the driver on ebay (I already have the bosch 10.8 driver)

What do you guys think of the offer, and the drills.

Thanks
J

I used to have a similar Dewalt SDS drill and it was great. That model you have posted also has rotary stop, which many of the smaller sds drills don't have!

You'll probably get £50 + for the Dewalt cordless, so it only stands you at about £75

Pity you have not got a 10% discount code that screwfix used to email out!

Yeah, haven't had one of those codes for a while now.

Some places are selling the driver for £115! That's driver 2 batts and charger with a case.
This one doesn't have a case, but still...

Once I get it i'll have a proper look, might even be worth selling it as individual bits.
Or maybe i'll just keep it and use it. :)
