I've only used the combi so far and it feels solid withwa good motor decent body with rubber grips and vents in the right places!
Need more batteries, going Chinese from eBay!
Genuine AEG 2.5ah X1 £52,
eBay Chinese non branded, 3 for £60-70

Btw these tools aren't for work, they're for at home, my Sister bought me them all on clearance for an Xmas pressie

P.S. quick edit, I pretty much went Bosch blue for work tools with a DeWalt mitre saw being the exception!

Bosch makes a nice kit. which dewalt miter? is that cordless too? I bought the small 7.25" compound miter that takes the 20v battery for small jobs...... pretty nice.

I’ve always mixed and matched tools as best of a specific is not always one brand. But will never buy Nike skate shoes. Gotta be a fag or something. Oh wait, maybe waiting on a comet to take them to another planet. :smirk:

Way back in the 80's, we were going through roto hammers left and right, then a AEG was purchased, and that sumbish outlasted 2 iron shops, and still kicks ass to this day.

And, I've been doing 20 volt Dewalt and am loving all of them. Then there is the hodge podge corded stuff.

Battery would be nice but it's a table mount single bevel corded 240v. Wish I had bought the double! :cry:

I do like my Bosch kit

even mymbit kits and my hole saw set

Still regarded as a decent brand here, I have a 6'6 stainless AEG fridge freezer at home and it's :cool:

Damn son!!! All those different batteries.
I’ve gotten all my cordless stuff down to 2 brands. DeWalt and Ryobi. I only have Ryobi cordless 18g trim nailers but I did pick up their 23g pin nailer. Very cool.
