Started using my £20 JCB 24v for a few jobs.


On a fully charged (according to the light on the charger) battery I
drilled about 6 x 6mm holes and the battery ran down to the point where
the drill suddenly stopped - seemed like some kind of cut-out operated.
5 mins later it could be re started & I drilled another 2 holes - then
it stopped again.


Would it have some kind of low power cut-out? None of my other battery
stuff has one.


More likely an overheat cutoff on the drill motor.
