Why should you buy a power devil pdd2197k

Advantages: price and quality
Disadvantages: colour (its red)

...Despite its name the Power Devil is a well built and well featured cordless hammer drill, the motor is made by the US maker Johnson which i am assured is a quality make, the battery is a large voltage 19.2V and is made by Panasonic, the keyless chuck made by Jacobs is a 13mm one which is quite rare to see on budget priced tool. The drill offers 16 torque settings, standard drill mode, hammer drill mode variable speed which 0-1000 rpm forward and reverse actions. The charge time is 1 hour which is a real bonus. The drill is comfortable in use despite its bulk for a cordless tool. It comes in a plastic case which also includes a small selection of drill/driver bits. All in all an exellent package at an excellent price £59.99...

Review of Power Devil Cordless Hammer Drill

This is the cheap one, not the hammer version.

Advantages: Cheap, better than expected.
Disadvantages: Instructions could be better.

...How can any drill that cost £12.99 be any good? That was my first thought too. Strolling through Great Mills/ Focus DIY, I spotted a drill/ driver for the silly price of £12.99, “probably good for making holes in chocolate and cheese!” I said trying to cover up a genuine interest. Fact is I’d thought about getting a cordless screwdriver for ages and never got round to it. I sidled over to the large pile of boxes trying to be aloof, picked one up and started to read. Power Devil PDX72, cordless drill-driver, reverse action, 7.2volt motor, 450rpm, 6 torque settings, 5-hour charge time. Well 450rpm is faster than any cordless screwdriver I’d seen so at least it should be able to screw screws in and out. The price was close to that of a cordless screwdriver anyway so I went mad and bought one. I had...

Draper 18V Cordless Rotary Drill Kit

Advantages: long life, works well
Disadvantages: short battery time

...Ah the cordless drill mans best friend, at least its my best friend. First of all I have to say im liking the colour scheme on this drill, I know that hasnt got anything to do with DIY but I had to say it. Of course it does its job, replacing the screw driver for all those tough jobs, such as hanging up pictures. looking at the drill itself there are lots of things that make you life easier. When inserting a drill bit you simple unscrew the end to release the holding mechanism and pop the drill bit in, bu whats clever is its magnatised so its easier to insert and do up if youve only got one hand free. You can change the speed the drill turns on a dial and also change the direction the drill spins in, handy for annoying backwards screws. There is a clip at the end of the drill which holds a spare drill bit, so you dont have to...

EasyJet , the Power Devil way.

Advantages: Cheap and cheerful , good overall performance
Disadvantages: Too little mains lead .

...Power Devil - 'PDG4024A Power Washer' ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As the years have gone by , slowly but surely dirt , grime and algae have taken their toll on our paved area's . Patio cleaner and a wash and brush down have had limited success , so it was decided to invest in a power washer . Not that the paved area's were the only reason for said purchase , there's also the car ( fed up of paying astronomical amounts for poor performance car washes ) , and other area's that the washer will be put to good use . So why the Power Devil PDG4024/A ? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For starters Power Devil are simonimous with quality goods at an afordable price . This product was purchased from Index / Littlewoods Catalogue store at just £49.99 . Secondly was the competition out there . I could choose from the Karcher range...

Compact and powerful

Advantages: Powerful for a cordless drill, Compact, Well priced
Disadvantages: Can't think of any.

...This 14.4V drill from makita is a good buy. I have been using this tool for over 2 months now and i'm very happy with my purchase. The 6280 is very compact. I was able to screw in 1 inch long screws with the drill squeezed between 2 wood boards only 9 inches apart. The drill comes with a charger and 2 batteries, which is more than enough power to get you through most jobs. You can drill intensively for 2-3 hours with a fully charged battery and it takes a little more than 1 hour to recharge a dead one. I tried the 12 volts version of this drill so I can recommand that you buy the 14.4 volt; It has more power and the batteries last longer. Keyless chuck makes for fast changing of bits. This drill will propably lasts you a very long time. Makita usualy makes quality power tools. I have a corded makita drill at my job (it belongs to...

Review of Makita 6280 DWDE - 14.4V Cordless Drill

Bosch those shelves onto that wall with ease

Advantages: Easy to use, several 'power' options for various 'jobs' and good battery time
Disadvantages: none for the price.

...I am the proud owner of several DIY tools, from your basic claw hammer to an industrial circular saw, (which, when I use it, still manages to scare the hell out of me sometimes). Anyway, the biggest boon in the Do It Yourself world has got to be the cordless/ battery powered power tool collection, such as saws, sanders, planes and especially the good old cordless power drill, with a vast range of power options. I do own a few of these type of drills, even a JML Dual Drill, which is a true genius in itself, and a few others of different power ratings, including the rather fine Bosch PSB 18VE2, which this review is going to be about. It claims to be the ultimate cordless combi drill which will bore through materials such as wood, masonry and even steel, (of course this depends on the actual drill bit), whilst still be capable...

Killer Drill(er)

Advantages: Cordless, Quick Charging, Good Features
Disadvantages: Pricey comapred to others

...It's a drill. It's cordless. It's got hammer-action and a screw-driving setting. And if you've seen on in the shops and are wondering whether or not it's any good, read on. Some time ago I bought a shed, which I had great fun putting together. Unfortunately I didn't have a power-drill/screwdriver at the time and so it was put together using nails. Which isn't a bad thing in itself, and the shed is still standing. But building things with screws is a lot more fun, especially if it involves a power-tool. It must be a caveman thing, the whole fascination with powertools. I'd imagine that if my great-great(to the power of lots) grandfather LegendaryMrUgg had owned a Black & Decker PowerFlintAxe, he'd have been the envy of the pre-historic world. And that's how I feel about my latest toy. Handy-work has never been a strong-point in my...

Power devil is no.1

Advantages: Reasonable , reliable and afordable
Disadvantages: To many good tools to pick from

...Power devil tools are very reasonable and reliable.Over the last couple of months I have bought several power devil tools out of the screwfix catolouge such as a 4.25" angle grinder,circular saw mitre saw and a power planer.

  DEWALT-The Industrial Drill

Advantages: Reliable, easy to use, quick recharge, two speed, 13mm keyless chuck, forward/reverse facility, many different torque settings. Meant for Industrial use.
Disadvantages: Heavy, but well balanced, can cause wrist ache if used a lot.

...DeWalt are a company more associated with the professional or industrial side of the tools market. I recently started work as a Cabinet Maker and needed a reliable, heavy duty and long lasting cordless drill/screwdriver. My boss advised me to buy a DeWalt drill as it would hopefully be a long lasting and heavy duty drill. I went ahead with it and followed his advice and bought a DeWalt DW914K2 14.4 Volt Cordless Drill/Screwdriver. This drill costs approximately £253 (including VAT). This seems a lot compared to drills you may see in cotalogues and many tool shops, but they tend to be the DIY drills for light use. The 14.4V drill appears big and bulky, and although it is fairly heavy at 2.1kg it is well balanced unlike many drills. You can easily line up the drill to drill a straight and accurate hole, asit is fairly square...

Arse scratching pleasure moments

Advantages: Well made and easy to operate
Disadvantages: Bit heavy but manageable

...I would be the first to admit that my attempts at home improvement are more likely to end up on a show like DIY Disasters than winning any B&Q award for Best Hanging of a Curtain Pole. Having said that I do still get the manly pleasure of doing a manual job and stepping back, wiping the sweat from my brow, scratching my arse and thinking "Yep that will just about do". With this in mind I thought it time I did a manly review about my Titan Combi drill which is of the cordless variety and hence ideal for most jobs. I have found this drill to be a good all round drill that can cope with pretty much al the jobs around the house. As a combi drill it can be used for both drilling holes and for driving and removing screws and with a 14.4v power source it can easily cope with wood and brick jobs. It comes in a hard plastic briefcase...
