It's not very strong. It will hold small screws but bigger ones will be a challenge.

@@RealisticDIYers Thanks, that helps alot. But they are atleast standard size, so i guess i'll buy some 3rd party one. Again thanks alot

True but we didn't have one back then. It was only a test.

We did think of it but It would need more time and effort and it is convient for our storage as it is.

We are happy to be helpful and glad we put a smile on your face! Thank you!

Perhaps, but others would argue that the drill is too big if there was more body. It comes down on specific uses after all... We also have the old bosch PSB 1800 with a bigger body, but in our opinion, it is too bulky for our uses.

@@RealisticDIYers Aye, personal preference. My wife bought me the 18V - 40 which is a bit bigger. Im going to get this 18V- 60 though, see how i get on with it. Cant tell the wife though. She will say 'what's wrong with the one i bought you?' Don't want to upset her. You have to handle these situations carefully. 😂

@Tony-1971 Hehehehehe. Good luck! We have no experience with the 18V-40, but it should be quite good, too. Take a look at the most recent one AdvancedImpact 18V-80. More powerful (if you need the extra power), and they have easy chuck change. It was launched after we made this video, and although we haven't tested it, it looks quite good.

@@RealisticDIYers I've only used the 18V-40 with screws up to now so no idea what its like for drilling yet, but it does seem like a decent bit of kit. And thanks for the info. I will take a look at the 18V-80 before i buy the 18V-60. 💯👍🏻

Which brand did you go for? Does it compare better to Bosch overall (if you have tried the bosch)? I'm afraid holding the screw by magnets was not our main concern in this review. Long screws won't hold anyway. It does hold small screws though.

@@RealisticDIYers Klein Tools.

@@jaycc2704 We were not aware of this brand, thank you for sharing. Their price though is double than the Bosch and as expensive as Wera. For this price it better be able to hold bolts haha!

@@jaycc2704 They do look very strong by the looks of it and reviews. Good choice!

We have not faced any of these problems in the past couple of months that we have this car. There is no door problem at all. Quite the opposite, everything works as it's supposed to work. Keeping the worth is an actual issue with all electric cars. We bought a slightly used second hand and yes the price was very low compared to a brand new one. Still though we have the manufacturers warranty. As for the battery health, we have no clue yet as to if it has dropped or not. It's too early to know. Pitty to have such problems, and we hope they fix them soon. 🙏

And what did you go with eventually?

Thank you so much! Real range is around 160 miles, but the truth is that we never really went all the way to test its limits. As for the adaptive cruise control, ours does have it but not sure if this is the case with all GS versions. For our needs, full electric makes much more sense.

Thank you! We don't even have a charger. They have chargers at work, and we charge once per week. The benefits compared to petrol are great! And the expenses much lower!

@DaveX11 Hi. Yes, it is definitely a good one for computers. The links are not affiliated. We just put them to help navigate.

Yes and no. Professionals need to work faster, the more power the better for them. For us DIYers, you are correct, power is not making a lot of difference (except really big screws).

@kathpengilley3925 Really? Something to check in the future. Thank you for this information.

Thank you!

@RobWills81 Thank you! Stay tuned as very soon we will show how we are planning on using the foldable multipurpose table.

Thank you so much! New attachments coming soon...

Thank you for your interest. We know it does. Whatever you see in the video is either to show (without a battery) or to keep the line straight (if you don't lift under specific surcumstances, it is very challenging to keep the cut-line straight)

Thank you so much! They are both very good and each with pros and cons.

Thank you so much! We try to share our experiences. We hope you will enjoy your Mokka as much as we do! Happy and safe driving!

? What ?

Hello Kat 🤣🤣 We haven't planned a drills set review. Thank you for mentioning it, we will see into it. We buy tools to use them in our projects around the house. We are short in projects these days as we are moving houses, but you will get to see more tools in action in the coming months and years...

That was our first try. We figured out the setting after that (we hope 😁)

Glad it was helpful! Let us know what else would you like to know!

Bought it and used it today. Exactly what I needed for trimming my small garden. I am already invested in the Bosch 18V power for all line so great match for me. Really happy with it, thanks again.

@@phatdpc Thank you for letting us know. We are happy to know that we helped you deside. We chose this line for many reasons and it has not let us down so far. Let us know what other tools you want to get as we might have them already so we can make a video about it.

Thank you 🤗! Keep watching the series in the next few weeks to get all the details!

Agreed. This is what we recommend as well (see in the description). Also its motor is brushless. We will get it at some point...

Just comparing 🤷🏻‍♂️ not trying to prove anything. The full video shows all the details.

Hehe. Fair enough

Oooooor, perhaps we didn't consider the two hights. Everything is biased as people have preferences. Otherwise we would all buy the same thing.

Here to serve! Let us know what else you are looking for!

Not deliberately. The one with Bosch snapped, and then we had to go out a buy a replacement to finish the video. And then we didn't think of doing it with both 🤷🏻‍♂️ In any case, we wanted to show that they both perform.

Did you test the batteries for the first time? Everyone knows that new batteries will start performing properly after 2 or 3 charges. What capacity do your batteries have? The microfilter is not holding everything and this is exactly what we say in the video! USE A FACE MASK! Do you know of other sanders at this price range that the on/off switch returns to off after changing the battery? It does pose risk of injury and this is why we say in the video that you sould have the sander on a surface when starting and stopping. What was the point in the video that does not correspond to reality? Perhaps you should give all the information before stating that the video does not correspond to reality....

Interestingly, no instructions mention this. It does click when you go back as you describe, but not sure if it adds something extra to the locking. The chuck of this drill doesn't open at all while drilling given that you tighten in enough.

It is quite interesting though and we will look into it further. Thank you.

That's actually a pretty cool idea. Maybe if we hadn't paid for it we could do it 😄🤣

@@RealisticDIYers Yeah you might still want to use them after making the video and that test makes that kinda difficult ahahaha

Maybe one day we will switch into weird tools testing videos 🤣

🤣

Thank you very much! Stay tuned for more DIY projects that are actually realistic 😁😉

@@RealisticDIYers I did something quite similar in concept with same shaped sail but I used Maanta pulley winches to tension

@@robertcornelius8056 Maanta looks like a great installation! In general their products look great! We didn't know about them. Thank you for letting us know and through your comment, everyone else that wants to do a similar installation.

Thank you!!! 😘😘😘😘

It's in the full video 😉

🤣

We have not timed it but probably about a bit less than an hour for a fully charged 2.5amp battery. Is your fence straight edge or feather edge? If straight, a belt sander would work much faster but then you would need a mouse sander to finish the inside corner spots or do them by hand. You could use an orbital sander instead of a belt sander but it is very tricky to handle as you might find your sandpaper ''flying-off'' if you don't handle with cautiousness. Also not as fast as a belt sander. If your fence is feather edged then you will need more time with any sander. What we would do? Brush off any excess paint with a wire brush or pressure wash and paint over the remaining previous paint, two or more coats if needed. It all depends on how long your fence is, what is the colour difference, and what makes financial sense.

Thank you so so much! We don't have direct experience as we are renting and therefore not putting the money for someone else's deck 😁, also we will move out soon. So far, we have been pressure washing as well, and it works just fine. Slippery surface is (mostly but not only) caused by algae growing. Two are the extra solutions. 1. Algae cleaner (not sure how well it works against slippery decks). 2. Anti-slip deck coating which seems to be working great according to the interner reviews.. We have not tried either yet 🤷🏻‍♂️ Please let us know if you used anything else other than pressure washing and how it worked for you 🙏

Thank you so much! This means a lot to us! We have so much more to share!

Thank you for this. We really welcome comments regarding safety. We are only diyers and do not claim to know everything. We did consider this while filming. Yet, we have not been able to find a clear official statement that supports this. HSE does not specifically state this in the woodworking practices (it does state though the use of push sticks etc which mistakenly we didn't use, as well as not to place body parts directly over the cutter). No use of gloves is stated on construction rotating machines as far as we know. On the other hand, it is stated that PPE should be suitable and fit to the body parts to prevent entanglement. In the case of this video the gloves are firm to the hands and therefore our interpretation is to use them to prevent injuries from other hazards (not particularly the planer blade). We have seen so much discussion on Facebook as well regarding this issue with varying opinions and we are not sure what is right and what is wrong.

@@RealisticDIYers from a few decades working with power tools and seeing what gloves can cause: if your finger hits a router bit it will usually take a chunk out of your finger and release it. your skin is pretty weak, very wet and easily sliced through. a glove on the other hand is intended to be durable, difficult to slice through or tear, giving the tool the opportunity to pull the glove and the hand inside of it directly into the cutting head or blade. every training and certification course i have taken has emphasised not wearing gloves around routers and power saws. gloves protect well from slow moving things but they are very dangerous around fast moving things. try asking a professional cabinet shop, or trade school if you want to be sure this isn't just internet wisdom. i'd hate to see ya'll get the bad end of that sorta life altering injury. cheers and good luck. your channel is great fun so far.

@jsmxwll Thank you for this. We have asked professionals from time to time (including Kat's dad, who was an excellent woodworker and clockmaking craftsman), and they told us not to use gloves in such activities. Yet there are still other professionals that say the opposite (as I describe it above). I suppose we should start following the advice of no gloves. Thanks to both of you again.

Thank you so much!

We found the same lack of information. Encouraging to know that this has reached overseas. Stay tuned with our channel as we have more Bosch green line reviews coming.

@RealisticDIYers I'm from the UK, but whenever I try and look at drill/tool ranges or reviews it's the same bunch (makita, milwauke, dewalt etc) and the "cheaper" brands being like, har our freight, which I have no access to. Green bosch reviews are far and few between, good to see someone addressing this highly looked over battery ecosystem. I have the drill, impact, torch and fan as well as a few corded bits like the oscillating tool and sds hammer, they helped us get through our renovation just fine. If I'd have opted for a "big boy" brand it would have done the same job and easily cost twice as much.

Oh, so we are on the same page. We want to have good quality without spending a fortune, but also that will last longer than just one project. We had the same problem whenever we needed to get information on what to buy. Having spent ages researching, we thought it would be nice to share our view. Thank you for your kind words. It motivates us to do more - speaking of which we just uploaded a video on bosch cordless grass trimmer 😉 Happy Easter DIYing!
