The 8391 18 volt NiCad combi kit with two batteries is featured in CPC today for £90 + vat (so actually the Screwfix offering at £99 including VAT is cheaper).
I have an old (non hammer) Ryobi 14.4 which is still working fine, but I have already re-celled one battery and the other one now needs doing. Views on the NiCad Makitas? This one comes in a nice box with a full set of drills, drivers, etc. In my experience drill sets are often bargain basement and barely worth having, but are the Makita ones OK? If so, that would probably swing it.
Only for (serious) DIY use, not heavy pro type duty.
TIA
