Thank you for thorough video. Bought one today in UK for £29.99 bare, £52.99 including battery and charger. Seemed a bargain with a 3 year warranty. Should do fine for intermediate trims but will use 240v for deeper cut/heavier growth.
@@DennisDIY buy the proper tools to do riv nut installation,, these cheap methods can actually stretch the thread inside the riv nut,, if you are doing it once or twice,, fair enough,, I have done many, they are brilliant securing something to thin metal,,, I bought both metric and imperial,, cheers everyone 🍺 🍺 🍺 🍺
I have no idea, the prices an offers change all the time. Sometimes the more advanced tools have a lower price. You can have a look at specs, maybe there is a difrence
nice & cheap, but with less than 5 to 10€ each, under the screw head you can add a ball or needle thrust bearing . A hi grade steel screw is also better (8.8 or 10.9) with allen or torx print ;-)
If that component that came off is still working then you can most likely just some it back on and see if the battery works again. Personally i think that the part was just not soldered on well enough and got loose. I’ve pushed my ferm tools pretty hard so far and they work just fine. Not the best most accurate tools but they do what they need to do.🤷🏼♂️ You Probably just got unlucky by getting a bad battery.
The primary lever the trigger acts upon will fail eventually in all of these. I made a new one from scrap aluminium flatbar, took me 45 minutes with basic hand tools and a bench vise. I found the exact dimension from a 3d printing file sharing site as the original lever was badly distorted in the middle pivot hole so didn't want to use it as a example. Its ridiculous that these tools are cursed by bad design and cost saving measures. I had used the gun 3 times, 2 sticks worth until it broke.
Good tip, butt I didn't have any problems with the trigger yet, indonlnow it has to heat up long enough before using it. Maybe the trigger wil work to heavy when not doing that. Thanks for the tip
The machine is not connected to the Lidle home app only the battery I use is ready to connect. I jus show the battery is compatible with the machine you can only connect the battery and not the machine to the home app
The battery circuit seems strange to me. The liion cells would normally just be connected to output, without any transistors, because during heavy use, current goes very high, more than 20Amps and you would need very large heavy duty transistors. They can be used for charging circuit, of course, but this is not in use when running the tool, only when battery is in charger. Thus makes no sense to overheat and melt the solder on those components when running the tool. Unless the motor needs 18V or 42V and they used a 12V battery with components to increase the voltage, which is not good design.
I recently bought this same Parkside Performance 12 volt screwdriver, but as a complete kit 2x 12v 2A batteries, 1 charger, a kit of normal drills, a kit of wood drills and a kit of screw adapters all inside the screwdriver bag for 72 euros It wasn't cheap but at least I didn't need to buy anything else, the only thing I would like was instead of 2x 2A batteries I would like it to be one 12v 2A and one 12v 4A because I've seen in other videos that the 12v 4A one gives a extra performance because the energy drop during periods of effort is smaller in a 4A battery and also that with a 4A battery you have 48W of power in the screwdriver and with a 2A battery you have 24W of power
Nice to have a complete set, I haven't test a 4AH yet. Thanks for you comment. I will see if I can get a 4ah as Wel. I really like the small size of those machines, some extra power is welcome, but I do think it's really strong already with the 2 AH.
@@DennisDIY well, it would actually be interesting to put a battery with more capacity to see if the difference in performance would be noticeable in the different devices, especially when there are 3 types of 12v batteries and 3 types of 20v, with a borrowed 12v 4A battery I was able to conclude that it seems give extra performance but I haven't tested it yet with a 12v 5A battery, I wonder if it would give a little more performance, it's a strong device with a 12v 2A battery but at some point the need for a little more power appears, for example in my tests with a 12v 2A battery I was unable to remove a rusty screw from an electric scooter but with the 12v 4A battery I was able to remove it
Hmmm. Is this machine safe to use? What if the machine drops out of my hands during the cutting? Will it turn off or I have to use a jack hammer to turn it off? 😅
@@DennisDIY when I unscrew the red lock, then the sword can move as you say, but if you pull the sword while tighten the red lock, then the sword is totally fixed.. I just tested to be sure, the automatic spring to stretch out the chain, is not strong enough on its own and the chain will come loose. Just apply a small pressure on the sword while tightening it completely
Good demo of this versatile little gem. I've already bought other tools in the 12v range: the drill/driver, planer, and jigsaw. The planer is excellent, the driver does what you'd expect, and the jigsaw is fine for anything up to 12mm. I managed to pick up all three with 10 percent off, and a further reduction on the drill/driver of 30 percent, as someone had opened the box and pinched the toffee drill bits that should have come with it. Like you say, for under £20 it would be rude not too.
thanks for video. subscribed/liked. one question. I've bought a PARKSIDE Stille compressor 1500 W 24L, and this compressor is Oil free. but do I need to buy this Air filter regulator & lubricator ? actually why and when I need to buy this? thanks in advance
Yes some tool need Lubrication like a Stapler for example. On the other side you do not want Lubrication ona paint sprayer. You can lubricate using this tool. But for example, you can give a tool also a drop of oil now en then while using it
Do you only use this with tools that needs lubrication? I use air a lot to tires and blow away water and dirt from stuff and I guess you don't want this thing connected? I bought it because the regulator on my compressor is broken. I think I need to return this regulator.
