What would you recommend for that?

Two suggestions:

(1) Buy two or three of the adapters - I have two and one started playing
up
whilst the other is still fine. They are remarkably cheap.

(2) Buy a mid-range cordless drill/screwdriver


I cannot find such things. Can you recommend a make and model?

Your idea of 'mid range' may not be the same as mine. :-)
I've just bought
https://www.screwfix.com/prods/59749...ss-Combi-Drill
which has been praised (and not) in a couple of other threads.
It costs £100.


That's ok, thanks.

However the big boys toys cost quite a bit more.

So far I am very pleased with it as it out performs my cheaper B&D 12V
drills in performance, recharging time, and has 3 batteries included.

Some others prefer the Makita with the Makita badge on.
