That would explain why plentymorefish.com didn't stock any Rawlplugs either.

+1 makita.

or Metabo, tuetonic robustness, but it comes at a price.

i've got the DeWalt 18v. it's a solid bit of kit and i've abused it for the last six years and it's still going strong. did change the bushings a year or so back.

You'd be much better buying a cordless drill/driver. A decent Dewalt 12v or something, maybe with hammer action for really noisy screwing....... 😀

One of the problems with these cordless drivers is the recharge time.Forget the cheap end they have recharge times of 3-5hours,put it on to charge lunchtime and its charged at teatime,completely useless.For a few quid more the mid range drivers recharge in about 1 hour.

However 😉
If its just for occasional use or for wee jobs around the house then something like this might be more your style

Recharges pretty damn quick 😆

Roybi make a good range of Li-ion trade orientated tools[green range B&Q]
The beauty of that system is the batteries and charger fit into a large range of tools.

Theres a lot more in the range than featured here

DONT BUY ANYTHING WITH A NI-CAD BATTERY
