screws and screwdrivers
Hello,
My cordless screwdriver seems to be on its way out. Its a Bosch model hat I have had a for a few years. What is the life expectancy of the batteries in these? I presume they are not replaceable? I think the battery is worn out because it will not hold a charge. Is it time to upgrade to a new one? Do you recommend a dedicated screwdriver or should I use the opportunity to get a cordless drill? I would think a drill might be a bit too bulky for screws. I suppose you might recommend an impact driver but they seem very expensive. By the way, is there such a thing as a general purpose screw or is it a matter of a different type for each application? Up to now I have used Screwfix's Quicksilver range. I only really use it for joining bits of wood or with a wall plug. I'm running a bit low, is there something better I should stock up with? |
