The festool gear seams all a bit of a weird design for me it's some space age type stuff hilti is just standard design but bulletproof

I have a mixture of Hilti and Festool, both really good. Well apart from the Festool jigsaw. I have just ordered a bare Festool drill to replace my old one. A Hilti cordless jigsaw is next on my list
Here is my old Festool drill

I just use a sds paddle I ended up buying this sds paddle and stuck it in my big battery drill worked a treat

Thought I heard something about manufacturers making one for all universal battery so the metabo should fit flex?

 

[Waluigi]

Metabo has made a Battery that fits a few brands.

18v don't sound like enough for a mixer tho 36v and now we're talking

Not the volts it’s the amps that’s the torque I always thought?

They make 36v tools for a reason lol

Trust me, my Metabo mixes up a 25kg bag with no issues. The Metabo beats the Dewalt 36 flex volt, a mate of mine sold his and bought the Metabo.

Ok let’s take volts and amps like plumbing volts would be water pressure and amps would be flow rate
