matika batteries are eye wateringly expensive. good deal if you already have the batteries, otherwise cold as matika are over priced

try using a selection of their tools & you will realise how good quality they are!
In the last month I have bought 2 drills, a circular saw, a multitool, a selection of Makpacs, a vacuum cleaner & sealent gun. Fantastic products! I dont work in the building trade, but I like doing DIY - they make the work fun. No faffing around with extension leads or underpowered tools, etc. The sealent gun was a splurge, but I struggle with the trigger manual ones & my hands ache afterwards

If you buy a genuine Makita DC18RC fast charger it will cost £36.49. If you buy a genuine Makita BL1830 3amp battery it will cost £41.95. So the total cost with this offer will be £116.43.
Unless you already have a charger and/or battery it might be better to wait for an offer that includes all three at a lesser price. You might consider £100 as a target price.

I have this drill and will say it is very heavy, and hard to use for prolonged periods! if you're using it at arms reach, with only one hand, you wont last long with it due to the weight.
That being said, it is a fantastically powerful bit of kit!
bargain price too
Batteries are about £50 for a decent 4ah genuine item, and a charger is about the same again.

Been keeping an eye out for an impact driver, good deal these bare tools if you already have some tools with Lxt batts

These are about £40 in other places too.
Good drill, but NO BATTERY OR CHARGER, JUST DRILL, PLAN AHEAD.
