Looking to replace my Bosch (green) which I've been perfectly happy with, except the Ni-Cad batteries don't last long.
Orange shed are selling a Hitachi 18v with a pair of 1.5Ah lithium ion batts for less than a hundred quid. Anyone got one?
I've got a DeWalt mains SDS which is great and have heard the usual good opinions of Makita, Bosch blue, Milwalkee etc, but all of those brands seem a fair bit more expensive.
How do Ryobi compare? Are their lime green tools the consumer stuff, equivalent to Bosch green? I've got a mains circular saw by them and it's a solid bit of kit so started contemplating getting one of their combis as well as a right angle drill and share the batteries between them.
What does everyone else use for general drilling of joists, plaster and screwing down boards etc...
