I have a drill with that battery I bought years ago, it has held up well in my secondary tool bag.

The trousers have kneepad pockets not knee pads.
I already have the version thats not zip off which I got for £10 they are lightweight but if you buy them roomy enough I find that they don't inhibit your movement as much as the heavier worktrousers. Get through a couple of pairs a year. Have had the zip off variant but I didn't zip them off as I use them on the allotment and its your lower legs that get scratched, bitten or hit with stuff from the mower/strimmer. Usually I put scissors in the pocket and they punch through the seam

Will give the jap saw, magnetic stuff, screw extractors, right angle attachment a go. Quite like the look of the jigsaw

Didn't get on with the 3m tape for outdoors so went back to gorilla

Quite tempting don't know how they do it so cheap
Got my eye on the small planner as the Bosch version is around £240
recently I used their 20v cordless SDS (£40) on a job for 2 weeks, it was very lightweight to use all day
got a little warm and grease came out the rubber\Chuck but after a few days use this settled down
although they've got a long warranty You've got to expect they might not last being used in a pro. situation :-)

The 12v puts me off the planer. I reckon it would be underpowered and not last a couple of hours.

I bought two of the Jap saws. They look ok.

i would suspect you would be lucky to get a door or around 15-20 mins out off a 2ah battery[10.6x2x60=1272 w]
so if it uses say200w it will last about 5or6 mins continuous use
