Well my all-singing-all-dancing (!) Performance Pro has gone to meet its maker so I've decided it's time I had a proper one.
My main question concerns what voltage to go for. I'll be using it mainly for drilling timber and driving in screws - which TBH the 14.4V PPro did quite well. However I'd also like to be able to do some light masonry drilling too when required, which the PPro couldn't touch (although it had hammer action). But I don't want to end up with an unwieldy monster just to be able to achieve the masonry drilling - should a decent make of 12 or 14V cope with that, or do I need a more powerful machine? I do have an old mains B&D drill as well as Screwfix's stonking great cheapo SDS machine for emergency use, so it's not the end of the world if the cordless won't cope with brick.
The Bosch 24V Combi Drill PSB24VE2 (Screwfix 41479) looks like not a bad deal to me at 130 GBP with a spare battery: any comments on that model?
Thanks David
