Screwdriver from Leroy Merlin for 664 rubles. Is it worth buying?
Today I want to tell you about one screwdrivers, the cost of which is incredibly low rather just 664 rubles. Of course, this tool turned out to beChinese production.
I first saw him in a rather famous store Leroy Merlin. Among all the screwdriver he was the cheapest and I decided to buy it for fun and to check their experience in the operation.
Immediately to clarify that in different cities of the price can differ by a couple of hundred rubles. For example, in Moscow it costs 664 rubles, and in Nizhny Novgorod has 854. What is the reason is not clear, because in fact this is one chain store and in theory prices should not vary.
Equipment:
Options screwdriver elementary. The tool itself, the passport, the instruction and the charging device, which consists of two parts - the power supply and charging the box in which the battery is installed.
Battery:
Twelve volt battery. In practice, it turned out that it lacks a maximum of 45 minutes of work, but there is nothing strange as it nickel - cadmium. A full charge will take approximately one hour. In fact, it would be very nice if included would be the spare, but as they say the price does not allow.
Testing:
On one fully charged battery I was able to tighten and unscrew the screws 105 a length of 50 millimeters. To be honest, I was a little impressed with the result, I think I can max 40-50.
Disadvantages:
The main drawback of this screwdriver is that it is rather weak and it is not regulated by the speed of rotation of the cartridge, so it is definitely not suitable for complex repair and construction works.
Should you buy it?
As I mentioned above categorically not suitable for serious work screwdriver, but for basic household chores quite handy. It serves me more than six months, and the glory of God is working correctly. Often helps me to hang a shelf or perform the assembly of the furniture if necessary. Value for money - quality pleases.
