As much as i like milwaukee stuff mostly for low usage i think i would buy this draper expert set over that milwaukee one, its cheaper and has bigger sizes in it. Although it really needs a 15mm, lots of flanged bolts and nuts about with 15mm heads.

Its cause hardly anyone sells them, most buy the 2 amp, 4amp or 6amp. IF 3amp were not so dear i would buy one cause it would be better than the 2amp in the heated hoodie/jacket with out being any bigger in size. the 4amp and the 6amp are too awkward a shape to have in the pocket.

Yes i was thinking for my heated jacket works well with 2 amp ones but they don't last long enough and it works well with the 4 amp but the battery can be uncumfetble if bending down so a 3 amp or two would work better, i did buy a couple of 3.5 amp knockoff batteries but found out after watching youtube video that the knockoff 3.5's are only 1.5 amp but sold as 3.5 amp's so that idea got thrown out of the window

the 2amps are cheap. i have 2 of them and they will last all day just if you swap them over on the hoodie but the jacket has more heating elements so probably go flat quicker?

It's not supposed to be used as a hammer!

grainboy · Feb 12, 2022

Not a hammer, it just tried to fly, from 5 m to zero onto concrete,
Not a good outcome, it still works though.

Gaffer tape and splint it is then

grainboy · Feb 12, 2022

Electric tape got me out of trouble,
But new one ordered

Gerbert · Feb 12, 2022

I don't know if it is cost effective but you might be able to order a shell.

Idea, but need it for Monday,
Idea though as have 2 in that state, the joys of working with roofs,
