Ha ha you don't want to be electrocuted slowly or quickly !! :confused:
110v systems are actually 55v-0-55v so safer because the max voltage to earth is 55 volts
And 110v takes MORE current for the wattage, compared to 230v, not less :man:

Voltage is not what kills you. Its the Amps & 110V run at half the Amps.
You are right though. Unless you have a circuit breaker you are dead either way :wink:

Because its 110v and you will need to buy one of these to make it work.
You cannot plug this drill into household mains

Amazing drill, I have the model up with changeable chuck and happily paid £100, if I had a transformer I would buy this.

110 Volts is safer for human use because it has a lower electrical potential and does not electrocute or damage people as quickly as 220 Volts will. Either one is sufficient to kill you if you complete a circuit on it. :confused:

Hot deal...and a bit safer than 240 Volts.

It is the current that kills you .Body will take easily 200-300 kV.

110v is dual phase 55v each so much lower curent

Thanks absolute bargain. I'm a DIYer but this drill is so good it'll be worth the extra £30 to get an adapter. Total cost £80 and now I can DIY with other 110V accessories if I choose. Thanks OP. Bargain. Been borrowing an SDS drill for too long!

110v is a pain in the ass.
I wouldnt recommend it for the house, lugging about a transformer is not fun.
As long as you have a 30mA RCD in the circuit 230v is perfectly safe.
Where are you getting a 110v transformer for £30 by the way?

great price I have been looking for a 2nd hand drill on eBay and they are no cheaper than this

can anyone recommend any decent drill bits too?
callum84 to Mucka

I use these.
Dont go crazy with SDS bits, its not like ordinary drills which need to be sharp. They work by brute force and even cheap bits work and last very well.

That's most bizarre, as, using both Edge and Internet explorer, at checkout I get an error message stating that the Item(s) are Undeliverable ... WE DON'T HAVE THIS PRODUCT (in all caps!).
Got it through the phone ultimately... £49 is a great price for sure!

Gateway to cheap tools brought from lads wearing trackies and hoods that is :smile:
yep people were ordering it ok online, looks like its now sold out, had to happen - I'll expire it
good luck to those who got a bargain, sadly I need a 230v one so it was no good to me

Completely wrong on all accounts.
Most building sites require the use of 110V tools which are fed from these special transformers, they have a centre tapped earth and two conductors at 55V which are 180 degrees out of phase, the point being that if the cable is damaged and a single conductor is exposed and you are unlucky enough to make contact with it, you are only going to have 55V through you rather than 240V.
Is where I was going to buy my transformer for £30 - but I've just realised that that £30 is only if you buy 3 or more plus you have to pay VAT making it a lot nearer £40.
