How much do I need to spend to get a decent cordless drill. One where the

I just want it to drill holes, I can use a screw driver.

Hi Kevin,

Certainly not the 'cheaper' end, but I absolutely swear by (not at) my
Panasonic combi drill/driver.
I made the switch from Makita gear about 2 years ago and have
absolutely no problem with it, and I have tested it to the max! I was
sold on it when I went into TooledUp in Enfield and the guy told me to
drill into the concrete floor of their warehouse with a 25mm x 500mm
long masonry SDS bit- how about that for an acid test

I got the kit with 2 batteries, charger and case and he did me a great
deal and matched a price I'd seen on tinternet, also threw some other
bits in, so my advice would be to go to a decent professional tool
store, with pound notes in your pocket and wave your wad in their
face

I'm saving up for the smaller dedicated driver now

Enjoy...
