Does anyone know if it is possible to buy spare batteries for the Challenge drills? I can't seem to find any at Argos or Ebay.
What happens when you are in the middle of a diy job & the battery runs out?
This looks great value but I really want a drill that has 2 batteries

Is it not worth buying two drills? -- then you have a spare battery and a spare drillYOU CAN'T HAVE EVERYTHING........
WHERE WOULD YOU KEEP IT!!!0 -
It may not be very good - this similar one made by Challenge has a rather poor review http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/product_test/46420/cordless_drills.htmlThe cheapest drill on test came with 73 accessories in a multi-layer case. That's the good news - the bad news is everything else. The build quality of the case and the drill was poor - flashing around the handle of the tool had to be sanded down before use. Performance was disappointing, too. Despite the large-capacity battery, it struggled when screwdriving and still more when drilling.0

I don't expect much for £15, can always take it back if its crap. I can't justify the expense of £80, for the tiny amount of drilling I'll be doing.0

Rather than paying for 2 drills I would rather spend an extra £5 and get a drill with 2 years warranty & 2 batteries from Robert Dyas
