marshmall0w2 on Extra 10% off your Online Order (Exclusions Apply) + Delivery ($0 C&C) @ Supercheap Auto

It always fails for me lately with afterpay but works with card payments.

snuke on 1/2 Price: Dewalt XR 12V Cordless Tools + Delivery ($0 C&C/ $130 Order) @ Supercheap Auto

The biggest advantage of the Dewalt 12v form factor is that the tools are way more ergonomic than the M12 tools, especially the drivers.…

snuke on 1/2 Price: Dewalt XR 12V Cordless Tools + Delivery ($0 C&C/ $130 Order) @ Supercheap Auto

You might have better luck using Google. Some things, like the 1/2 inch impact wrench kit don't show up for me using the Supercheap search.…

bargin424 on 1/2 Price: Dewalt XR 12V Cordless Tools + Delivery ($0 C&C/ $130 Order) @ Supercheap Auto

I use these professionally for a lot of different tasks, especially the 601 driver which is my favourite tool. I also get a lot of use out…

Mine only lasted 2.5 years, but that could be due to living in a hotter climate. I ended up buying a Supercharge brand battery from…

They also have significantly cheaper housing so I'm not so sure the affordability is as similar as you say.

I've had the Ozito inflator for around 2 years and I've used it heaps. There was one point (more like two months, was waiting for mycar…

I've seen the M12 inflator in use and have to say, it's pretty slow. I have the $80 Ozito one which is similarly slow, but comes with a 5…

Don't know why you are getting negged. I just got back from Osaka and we paid less than $300 return for direct flights. Sure, it was with…

I got over not having page turn buttons pretty quickly. The thing I couldn't go back to is a 6 inch screen.

I have been using Kindles for over 15 years and currently have 4 Paperwhites in the house and have never had this happen. We only use…

Where can I find a 7" Kobo for anywhere around this price? The Libra Colour is $130 more.

finger on Bosch Professional 2-Piece Procore 18V Brushless Combo Kit 0615990L24 $399 Delivered / C&C / in-Store @ Bunnings

The Bosch might be a little bit stronger, but it is bigger/heavier and so not as nice to use for normal drilling. Obviously which one is…

twister292 on Bosch Professional 2-Piece Procore 18V Brushless Combo Kit 0615990L24 $399 Delivered / C&C / in-Store @ Bunnings

If you want to use it as an impact wrench, it definitely is not capable. It is currently ranked 17th on Torque Test Channel's impact driver…

Which Dewalt kit? Chances are you ended up with better tools. The drill here is nothing special, and while it's cool that the impact driver…

You should be choosing adequately sized cable regardless of termination method.

kingmoron on Klein Tools Self-Adjusting Wire Stripper and Cutter $27 + Delivery ($0 C&C/ in-Store/ OnePass) @ Bunnings

I doubt it. My current pair of Klein wire strippers has lasted about 2 1/2 years of daily use and they're still going strong.

Public21 on Klein Tools Self-Adjusting Wire Stripper and Cutter $27 + Delivery ($0 C&C/ in-Store/ OnePass) @ Bunnings

They've been this price for about a week at Bunnings. They were this price on Amazon but went back to full price yesterday I think.

Averell on DeWALT x McLaren 18V XR Brushless Hammer Drill Kit DCD85MP2T-XE $199 Delivered / C&C / In-Store @ Bunnings

I suppose I should have said anti-rotation. This one says anti rotation on top of the light and it's mentioned in the description. I…

Yer on DeWALT x McLaren 18V XR Brushless Hammer Drill Kit DCD85MP2T-XE $199 Delivered / C&C / In-Store @ Bunnings

Specifically, it's more like the European version of the 805 in that it has anti-kickback. As far as I know, the 805's sold here didn't…

Like anything, you will get better with practice. The difficulty level depends on how good you want to get.

I plan on getting them replaced for free, given that they are not even a year old. Definitely won't be buying Bose headphones again.

I bought a pair for my partner around 8 months ago. She uses them probably around 5 hrs a week, and already the stitching on both ear cups…
