Battery powered one sucks other than being able to use it in a pinch.

I have had my dremel for 5 year now with no issues. I even used it to make a whole sub box out of 3/4 inch mdf board 3 1/2 years ago when me and Jenn lived in the apartment and I didn’t have all the room for tools I do now. I still used the hell out of the thing :dunno:

I’ll be using it here in the next few weeks to put in recessed lighting in the bar…
