    I bought a bunch of the Ozito 18v gear about 3 years ago and apart from a couple of batteries I stupidly left out in the rain and buggered up I haven't had any problems with either the brushless or the brushed stuff.
    I use the rattle gun to change wheels and it has No problems cracking the wheelnuts on a D2

    Well I needed a new drill.......

    but rather than something decent ... I ended up with this kit cheap as **** Ozito kit





    $249 ... I only wanted the drill/driver combo which was $150 but I noticed this one had larger batteries (the batteries in it are $150 alone). Its absolutely brilliant. I can't believe how good it is given the price. The drill would be as powerful as my 18volt makita. I always thought impact drivers were a bit of **** .... but wow ... bloody brilliant. I didn't realise it doesn't readily strip the head out of the screw and try to break your wrists like using the drill on low speed with a driver bit. Its applies no load to your wrists but will drive enormous coach screws into wood. I tried to stall the grinder... but no, its very grunty. I'm not sure how long the batteries would last in a grinder. But it certainly negates the point of ever putting a padlock on anything again. There isn't a padlock made it would cut through in seconds with a 1mm blade in it.


    I was so impressed, I went back and grabbed this (just to use in normal use around the shed, not as an actual rattle gun).





    it looks like a dinky little childs toy. So imagine my suprise when I tried it on the 27mm wheel nuts on my range rover (that were torqued down with a breaker bar) and found it unscrewed them


    I have no qualms about buying any of this cheap ozito **** .... 'cos it seems to be quite good ... and has a 5year waranty.
