Good price - this usually goes for about £35 when packaged as the

Specially packaged for Asda in yellow

    lol gotta be joking ;-)
  • Battery is Ni-cad.

    I purchased one of these from Asda in Kinghill in Kent, about 3 months ago for £25. Thought it looked a good deal so got it and then reseached on the internet when I got home, before even opening it.

    Looked on the Draper website and found that the model number didnt seem to exist. Was thus concerned about getting a replacement battery for it later in life. Emailed Draper about it and they pointed me to a replacement battery of on their website - but stated that it was out of stock and had no delivery date for new supplies.

    I took the drill back to Asda for a refund.

    Nicad's can give out the most power so they are probably standard issue to the cheaper power tools.
    Lithium batteries have the capacity but are more fragile to power surges.
