Yeah the Li-ion would be nice but I couldn't find one anywhere near my price range as the battery alone is over my budget..at least in a brand I recognise. Ni-Cad will be fine for my amateur DIYing needs

Also drop into screw-fix as they've constantly got in-store offers on the Makita and Dewalt stuff
Already checked them out on Saturday while buying Caulk
, spotted the Makita for £89 with 2 batteries, almost bought it then and there as looked like a great deal...glad I didn't though as B&Q have the 18V version at the same price (also 2 batteries)
I'll wait a few days till the Bank Holiday though as there maybe more offers to be had
Quoting: Roadkill
My next one will be a Makita, as I was a little unhappy with the life-span of the DeWalt batteries. That said I really abused mine !
Yeah that reminds me we had battery issues with the DeWalt at Alps, though it hardly ever got used..
