Thread: Dremel Recommendation

I have used the 10.4 volt Li-ion cordless for about a month now and love it. It is light enough to be comfortable and heavy enough to do the big jobs. The Li-ion battery gets me through my toughest jobs.

i started with a cordless B&D model. it worked well and still does. however i couldn't stand when it ran out of battery power. i still wanted to do work but it died so i had to plug it back in and wait. i sit down and do 3/4hours at a shot with the dremel and it needs to hold up like a champ.

i went and bought the xpr400 model with flexishaft. its great. so much more happy that i bought that over the B&D. just has more power and versitility and will run as long as i wanna go. the attachements are nice. if you get it from a home depot/lowes GO BUY THE 10$ INSTORE WARRANTY. it lets you take it back and get a new one off the shelf if anything at all happens for a year. i've burned out 2 already and just handed them back to homedepot and got new ones each time.

clean the air intakes out if you are sanding wood as the sawdust does bad things inside it.
