Looking to buy Cordless Drills?
Having to find an electrical mains outlet every time you need to do a little drilling is a royal pain. So save yourself the effort with the cordless drills available from this category! Entirely battery powered, totally portable, these convenient electric drills can reach spaces their corded brethren cannot! For maximum freedom, this category is a must browse!
Cordless drills: feel free to drill
The biggest advantage to buying a cordless drill is that you're not constrained by a power cable. Using a corded drill is fine if you're drilling in your house or within a few metres of a generator. If you want to go further than that, you need an extension lead, and even that cable won't go on forever. With cordless drills all you need to do is slot a charged battery into the right slot and you're ready to drill!
This isn't just a matter of convenience (although it definitely is convenient), it's also a matter of safety. If you need to climb up a ladder in order to drill a hole above head height a power cable adds unnecessary risk to your job. Your co-workers or family can also trip over a power cable left on the floor, which will hurt them and can wrench the drill out of your hand while you're using it it - nasty!
Years ago, power was a serious problem with cordless drills. But now, modern manufacturing techniques and battery technology mean that cordless drills are just as powerful as a corded device. The best cordless drills have 18v motors at the minimum, although many will have 20v ones or something even more muscular. The more powerful the motor the more torque can be generated and the more control you will have when driving holes and screws through tougher material.
Cordless drills have proven so popular that there are battery powered versions of specialist drills alongside the regular pistol grip shaped drill. For example, if you need to smash holes in brick, concrete and other hard building materials, check out our range of cordless SDS drills.
Cordless drill brands
Cordless drills are incredibly common, and so if you've heard of a power tool brand certainly have at least one cordless drill, and most have several battery operated models. Some brands, like Milwaukee, are in the process of transitioning almost entirely to a cordless business model.
If you're a true professional you'll want a highly reliable drill that's built to last. In that case, we recommend you check out brands like Makita, Bosch and DeWalt, but you'll find plenty of great budget options from brands like Einhell, Draper and Terratek as well. Whether you're shopping for a body only cordless drill or an accessory-ridden set, thanks to our generous sellers OnBuy is the best place to shop for power tools online.
