Have used this for some 7 years now and it needs replacing (batts pretty dead) was going to try out the dewalt version either 12, 14 or 18 volt. Before I do anyone have a recommendation of any make.

Thanks

Mike

i have the dewalt 18v angle drill nice bit off kit will drill with a flat bit ok 2 speed is handy

it would be improved if the battery could rotate on the base to allow it to get into tighter spaces

trigger is rather long and covers most off your fingers so its a bit awkward trying to hold at an angle without catching the trigger

apart from that gret bit off kit

Cheers buddy that was helpful. Mostly I use it for securing cornice to wall units and the 'H' fits between the top of the cornice and the ceiling most times. Anything much bigger will give me grief. Torque setting would be good when fitting door hinges but don't think any offer it.

Mike

If you're mainly using it as a screwdriver it maybe worth looking at the Bosch GWI 10.8V-Li Cordless Angle Screwdriver too. Also gives you the torque setting you require.

Thanks Darren, had not considered this one. I'll look at it first thing in the morning.

Mike

although strangely enough its an electronic cluch it just stops dead but if you release and re-apply it will turn again
the several different position off the head is very usefull
the impact driver ir drill driver ar about the same sizeas an angle drill in there own right
