Battery SDS

Well, you'd need to specify what you're drilling into, and what size holes.

Because regardless of how good the drill - or the batteries - you can't change the laws of physics, and stored energy in the form of a battery is limited. Which is why we don't have battery cars.

I don't think you really understand the principles - do you?

Well, careful reading of the discussion should teach you something.

Are you a trade user? An SDS battery drill might make sense for some trade uses. But almost certainly not for DIY work.

It is the only sensible thing he has ever said in his whole life. I was a fool for buying Bosch.

I would agree with that. Bosch is crap.

"change" is an irregular verb. When the object is "the laws of physics" it always conjugates as "ye canna"

As in "the engines canna tek it captain". etc....

It's a softer sound, almost like a y. Correct spelling is cannae.

[I'll get me coat.]

I did not say it was crap. It is just that I found my Hitachi to be better. It may not be a like for like comparison (I do not know how much the Hitachi would be if new) but both are 24V.

Didn't know they made hacksaws?

Sadly, he's dead.

I've got a Bosch jigsaw. Random orbit sander. Electric chisel. All superb. No cordless Bosch tools, though. But then, you recommend PPPro crap as used by 'all' the professionals you know.

I know of 2 guys, 1 my son, who have had trouble with blue Bosch corded drills. Either the gearbox jammed or the chuck broke. This was with light DIY use. Cost of repair was exhorbitant.

Lithium, atomic number = 3.

Hence, Di-Lithium, atomic number = 6.

Atomic number = 6, ah, that's Carbon.

So the Enterprise was coal powered?

Note that the engines are fitted with dilithium crystal articulation frames. I guess that's stardate 44247-speak for a grate?

They are a waste of expensive time, living on past glories. The repair costs mean you may as well go out and buy a Ryobi and ditch the Bosch crap.

I was talking a to heating engineer today. In the back of his van he had a raft of power tool boxes, all Ryobi, except the Hitachi core duill. I asked him how they stood up. He was satisfied, and said they are not quite as good as Hitachi or Makita, but a fraction of the price. He also has been bitten by Bosch.

BTW,

have deals on Ryobi's. The Ryobi router is the biggest selling pro router. I think the RE601

They are not superb. You are telling lies.

Beam me up Rod.

BTW - did you know Captain Kirk had three ears?

The left ear, the right ear - and the final front ear...............

And Lt. Uhura was white until William Shat on her...

Oh, and don't go near the management toilet - it still blocked with the captain's log!

Surprised me to find out that he was a Canadian, not a Scot.

You have these too? Which models?

I'll let others decide.
