In the end i bought 2 x cordless Hitachi 18 v 1.5amp battery lithiumn drills ,and 36 v Hitachi lithium cordless sds with 2.6amp battery and hitachi lithium torch.im gonna get a cordless 18v lithium jigsaw and circular saw once paid in from this next job.
Got a good deal been using the drills for the last few days still on the same batterys very powerfull and very light to hold would recommend.
Cordless Drills where only £100 half price at B&Q torch was £20 ebay and cordless sds was £390 a little more than dewalt but this kit will last me a couple of years at least so id rather pay the once and buy quality.

To be honest mate most my other kit is dewalt or hilti,and i aint had a prob with dewalt,but during this last cold spell all my batteries have gone dead ( 5 batteries killed) ,being as the kit was ageing i thought why spend £300 on batteries i might aswell by some lithium kit.
I cant really fault dewalt kit ,ive pasted my kit i tell ya and it just kept on going.But early retirement and onto Hitachi for me now.
Amate of mine as used hitchi kit for a couple of years and swears by it so ill give it a try.

now hilti is one of the best stick with that but its expensive

festool

festool

if your a chippy its all second fix tools really

Hilti is great but the chargers always seem to fail,dewalt is good but the batteries dont last.
Ive heard a bit of festool but nothing in stone so decided to try hitachi,they make good tellys so il see how it goes.
