+1 Bill. I purchased a Dyson battery vacuum, it was fine when new,

now does not run for l;long and it needs recharging.

I'm still using a mains drill I bought 40 years ago. In the meantime,
I've had to throw away loads of battery powered ones (mostly NiCd it
has to be said), where the tool still works but the battery is
knackered.

Still got the Black and Decker mains drill I got with petrol coupons 38
years ago. It works fine.
The Bosh cordless one that cost £160 nine years is almost useless now and
has not been used much.



I regularly use my battery powered drill whereas my mains powered drill
gets little use. Today I drilled two holes in soft brick with the
battery drill in less time than it will have taken me to get the mains
extension cord out.
