Cheap impact.........

[Dustydazzler]

Hi all

It is my 40th coming up next month and my parents are insisting they get me a little something

I have told them I don't need anything but they want to

So my old Hitachi 18v impact is pretty much dead and I would like to try another brand

Any recommendations in the sort of £100 range

Can't be doing with them either, does anyone else think it's a little rude and arrogant to take a radio into a customers home and have it on loudly ? I wouldn't dream of it,but it happens.

I’ve abused the hell out of my dewalt impact....and it’s just giving up the ghost now after 4 years, well worth the £100 I paid for it.

And there’s bound to be some lunatic that’ll give me £20 for on eBay as spares or repair.

Well what did you go for?

You could ask for the bare impact driver then get compatible batteries online for quite good prices. you can also get a makita to dewalt battery converter which saves some pennies.

If the compatible batteries for Mikita are anything like the cr** compatible wilwaulkee batteries, don’t!

I still honestly don't see the need for one of these, when others near me are using them incessantly the noise makes me want to wring their necks.

It's nail guns for me , especially the older type .
