My Makita cordless drill with fast charge and a spare battery pack, can’t rememebr exactly what it cost but I can recall it was the best part of £300. Absolutely essential for site install work and those damned dryers with God knows how many screws on the back just to change the flippin’ belt! 🙂
I have got meters and stuff as well but I’ve no idea what they originally cost.

My refrigeration rig, circa £550 plus vat, my lokring pliers circa £350.00 but I have had them for over 5 years now and my megger which I’ve had for 10 years + and that was around £350.00 plus vat. Considering the use I’ve had out of them….worth every penny.

A couple of years ago I employed an engineer who came recommended.
He cost me a fortune in unused spares, recalls and lost trade!!
He was a right tool! 👿June 15, 2005 at 12:45 pm #138456kwatt
