i think the simmilarity issue is because there is only one neat way to package 9x1.2v batteries and thats like a toblerone lol

and to answer your question the bosh batteries have an uneven top and these are symetrical and level

I have been always tempted to buy one these drills,but i have wondered how good are they for long screws ,for example how many 2inch 3inch or 4 inch screws could you drive with no pilot hole in softwood with one of them.Maybe axminster tools can send some power tools to ultimatehandyman to test and give as prizes?

They contacted me a few weeks back about advertising. I emailed them back suggesting that they might like to sponsor the monthly competition and then I never heard back from them :?

Unfortunately many of the power tool companies do not like giving away their tools for testing.
