Very handy to use, Brian. Think I'd prefer using my mains drill.

Along similar lines, DeWalt sell a 'battery eliminator' for their
contractor saws, so run it on mains when at in the shed, or on battery
when on-site

Can see that being useful on what is basically a bench mounted tool. Which

But not really for a hand drill. Most will already have a mains one lying
around. Or even several. ;-)
