What cordless drills are worth

- Batteries holding a full charge on a current platform
- Recognised trade brands with wide battery compatibility
What pulls it down
- Discontinued battery platforms with no replacements
- Worn chucks that no longer grip bits securely
Working out what yours is worth
- Charge each battery fully and test under load
- Tighten a bit and check the chuck holds without slipping
Getting it ready

- Test the chuck, both speed settings, the clutch and the charger.
