I had looked at them but I didn't know how much I would need to spend for a decent one and how often I would use it away from home.......

If I'm at the point of needing one at the roadside it's probably time for a call to the big yellow taxi :lol:

you can use them at home or on the road.

Looks like a nice bit of kit but would need to buy a battery and charger as well so could end up pricey for occasional use.

Send this one but I think at the price its likely to be a bit weedy.

Also that one is a driver rather than a wrench so not aimed at car maintenance, more drilling in big screws, bolts?

That makita one is no good for using on your van, made for screwig wood together. I've been looking at that 240v clarke one for a while, it's got 400+ nm of torque which is more than the snap on battery ones so it will be plenty power full enough, probably just bulky. If it's vat free this weekend I'm gonna order one my self!

They do a battery one, but it's half the power

Ahh that's what I thought

I got a mail shot and an email about it. You on their mailing list?

 

[Andy_sheff]

I don't think I am, is there a code?

 

[67westy]

Unique codes unfortunately

 

[Andy_sheff]

I've purchased

 

[67westy]

More decisive than me did you sort a code?

I borrowed one. It got my rear hub nuts off when nothing else would. It's on my list of must haves. Brilliant!

 

[ozziedog]

I got one and had it for about five years, it works well but,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, it`s a bit lumpy :? It`s about three quarters of the size of a chieftan tank :shock: Wheel nuts etc it`s just fab, if you got room to swing a cat then it`s great, but can be a tad ackward in confined spaces but then again so am I, :lol:

Ozziedog,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Anyone want`s to borrow mine for a trial, is more than welcome, postage might be steep though :shock: :shock: :shock:
