  • I’m a purist/snob/paranoid.

    I don’t know if the knock offs have the same cut off capability. Don’t want to shag tools/batteries.

  • Don’t want to shag tools/batteries

    Don't forget that lithium ion batteries have a tendency to explode/catch fire if overheated or subjected to impact. The tool manufacturers have spent a lot of money developing their battery packs and manufacturing techniques to virtually eliminate these problems can the same be said of chinesium knock offs? The last time I looked to renew my tradesman's insurance 2 of the companies who quoted had a clause that invalidated my policy if I left batteries charging overnight in client's properties, which implies it's not an unheard of problem.

  • Yeah mine has that too as clause, although I never leave tools ever on a job incase they get stolen over night.
