Advice please.
I am considering buying a cordless hammer/combi drill for general DIY intermittent use.
I would say my max budget is around £100 but would prefer cheaper if possible.
The choice is overwhelming can any one recommend anything please.
Just a few basic questions.
1) What is the difference between NiCD and Li-Ion batteries.
2) If I use it for a week or so then not use it for a further three weeks and come back to it to charge the batteries does this kind of use ruin the batteries. If it does then I suppose I am better off with a 240v job first as last. I am really considering the cordless so I can do the odd job on the camper which I park where there is no electric.
I like the Makita on offer in Amazon for about £108.99 but a Draper one is £66.14 are the Makita ones much better.
Thanks
