CPC Makita deal.
Looks pretty good with free postage. But Ni-Cads? Hope they haven't been

It's been fine and the tools are pretty good quality as well. |

A year or so back I bought a cheaper 18v Makita drill for a small job thinking I could extend my kit later. It turns out (here) that most Makita 18v tools will only work with the 1.5 or 3.0AH batteries, not the ones that came in my kit (1.1 LIon without checking). I've ended up starting again with new batteries and charger as to have the cordless circular saw - planer and multi-tool to follow. $100 extra on a better drill in the first place would have saved me twice this and more down the line. -- Tony Bryer, Greentram: 'Software to build on', Melbourne, Australia www.greentram.com |
