Only comes with one battery.

Maybe not a good deal then.

aeg is the industrial version off ryobi from the tti stables
i have all the bosch 10.8 kit except the tin snips lol

bepends on expected use realy as to what i would suggest

[thescruff]

I have an 240v AEG drill, must be older than Stoday, Nah that's silly, must be 40 years though and still working. General fixing used to supply them.

Actually I may have a 110v as well, have to have a dig around.

£87 shopping channel torch and 1battery
£100screwfix no torch but2 batteries

Cheers,i suppose the 12 volt would have more power so would be better for screwdriving and drilling ,big all the green ryobis have they taken the place of the old blue ryobi,i see screwfix have the green ryobi 18volt combi on offer what do you think.

[big-all]

in general the ryobi green are identical to the blue performance and price wise
i would wait a few weeks and i think people will start selling the blue stuff off cheaper
i have already bought a new blue one plus random orbit sander and a spiral saw for less than £20 each off e bay including postage [14+5]when the normal price is around 3 times that

if you mean this offer

the drill batteries are old nicads at 1.5 ah but still a good deal

[diyguys]

I would not get either of those at those prices.

If you just want a simple drill/driver without hammer action then I'd get this one, which is 14.4v and is made by makita with 3 batteries and 30 min charger-

site 14.4v drill

Why not push the boat out and get a 18v dewalt combi with li-ion-


Dewalt 18v combi

The 18v is almost identical to the one in this video-
