Just bought a cheap $20 cordless Dremel 4.8V model 754-04 cordless, and battery won't hold a charge for more than 10 minutes. I remember seeing an earlier thread on this but I thought I would just say this again incase someone was is thinking about getting a cordless dremel... DO NOT... Garbage! returning it later today!
I have an old 10 years, rechargeable. I love it except that for hardcore grinding it does not last.
I is finally dying. The motor is going out.
So I gotta get a new one.
electric ones a lot better with different speed,i bought 2 more of them ,i liked so much
I have the same one. it is only good for polishing.
I picked up a Black and Decker RTX for everything else
can hardly believe my luck today. this morning i drove to home depot and checked out their dremels . . . $64 was cheapest i could find. dropped by walmart on way home . . . they had the afore-mentioned Dremel 4.8V model 754-04 cordless model for $22.77 . . . so i picked one up.
afterward, came home and looked at Straight Razor Place . . . according to member fatpanda's and slartibartfast's recommendations . . . i decided to bring it back to walmart and get the Black and Decker RTX . . . price listed was $27.44.
got to the counter . . . the rtx must be on sale . . . cashier rung up $9.00 . . . comes with storage case / sachel and 16 tool-bits. not to mention . . . the above dremel offered a scant 10k-rpm . . . this rtx offers maximum of 30k-rpm.
must be lucky day for me . . . thanks for all your input, folks . . . regards to all.
p.s. oh yeah . . . the reason i needed the tool is 'cause the relay for my fridge's compressor fried / burnt . . . causing the plastic as well as solder to melt onto one of the protuding terminals. already tried box-cutter as well as butane lighter. am hopin' this rotary tool will take care of my problem.
